Lar, regarding your concept of a third party observer to the thinking mind; I have heard it called and call it myself 'the witness'. In other words, I am witnessing my thoughts, I am not my thoughts. Just another way of putting the concept into words. It's good to see that there are others working with these concepts outside of a buddhist framework. I think that some of it goes beyond CBT theory, though I've never actually had a cognitive therapist before...
