The "pressure" is the act of trying to fill every moment of stillness/Reality with "something" ( a thought or sensation). Is it not so that as soon as there is silence/stillness, a human will seek out/create something to do or think about. There is no peace but rather a desire for anything BUT peace.
You have all of Reality inverted. The inversion is projected by thought
You are already stillness. You are already peace. There is nothing that need to be done to reach or achieve this natural state, just as there is nothing a tree needs to do to be a tree.
You are the stillness and peace in which every thought arises and passes away - there is absolutely nothing in the human form that is making these thoughts happen or making them not happen or pass away after they have arisen.
Your theory is therefore flawed and extremely inverted. Your own thinking is the obvious obstruction to your own logic. No human being or any conceptually thought thing is making life happen or not happen. No thing can stop or bring on a thought or make it go away.
The human body has no need for happiness. Thought does, and is the very thing you are trying to eliminate.
My leg or my arm never tells itself it is happy.
The emptiness of thoughtfree awareness can never know it is happy. That requires thought, thoughtfree awareness only shows up when thought is present, thought is needed to know there is such a state as happy thoughtfree awareness. When the thought disappears, so does thoughtfree awareness because there is no such state independant of thought.
