Duncan Trussell describes the mind's tendency to "salivate" thoughts, a concept attributed to Jack Kornfield. He explains that by watching these thoughts and the physical pains of the body, one eventually encounters a "primordial terror" regarding mortality. Facing this fear directly, rather than escaping into the ego, is presented as the path to a harmonious state of "loving kindness" or the Garden of Eden.
