Thought
What is a thought?
Is it a thing?
If it was, we could measure it - and scientists would be happy.
Are thoughts created inside our heads? Buddhists use logic to find their 'I', but cannot find it anywhere inside themselves.
Have you ever had the same thought or said the same thing at the same time as someone else?
I like asking people: ‘Do you think or are you thought?’.
“At a certain moment of your life you get thought by the living earth.” Martin Shaw, Courting the Wild Twin
Perhaps there’s only one source of thoughts.
Our minds are like radio receivers. We ‘tune’ into the thought available at that frequency in the moment? Other words for ‘frequency’, are ‘mood’ or ‘level of consciousness’ - which can change in an instant.
Western Science doesn't study consciousness. It’s the subjective experience of feeling and thinking.
Science separates the subject from the (material) object to make observations and count things while magically ignoring the observer. It is stuck in a materialist denial about things it can’t see or measure.
This is an embarrassing flaw to a quantum physicist.
Quantum physics holds that it is impossible to separate subject and object. You cannot have one without the other, and both affect each other instantaneously. Thus, it is impossible to make an objective observation without an observer and that the observer affects the object observed and vice versa. This is how dreams work: the observer (subject) dreams the dream (object) and the dream reflects the dream instantaneously back to us so we can experience the dream.
In Quantum Revelation, Paul Levy identifies Quantum Physics Induced Trauma (QPIT) as a term for physicists who cannot recognise this fact and change their worldview. They suffer cognitive dissonance from holding two irreconcilabl be-lie-fs at the same time.
