WHAT ARE THOUGHT AND WHERE DO THEY COME FROM?
1. A thought can be understood as a conveyer of impulses that reflect or affirm a person’s feelings, beliefs, or assumptions about a particular condition or desire. Thoughts without doubt do more than just the expression of one’s internal state of a being—they actively shape and reinforce our character, desires, and choices.
When a thought arises, it generates mental images (imagination) and evokes emotional responses associated with the subject of the thought. These desires and interests, created by thoughts, often serve to protect or prioritize an individual's personal interests.
Thoughts are not isolated entities but rather creators of their own opinions or ideas, which can be conceptualized as imaginations. These ideas and opinions are informed and influenced by years of accumulated experiences, incidents, and events that form a pattern of beliefs and ideologies.
These, in turn, shape one’s perception of reality, including notions of right and wrong. Over time, this complex interplay of thoughts and experiences establishes a mental framework through which an individual interprets the world and makes decisions.
The thought system of an individual acts as the “womb” or environment that not only nurtures desire and creates our internal world but also carries the power to manifest these desires into the physical, visible reality. It is within this mental environment that ideas and beliefs are conceived and developed, giving birth to actions and outcomes that reflect the individual’s internal landscape.
The primary function of these created ideas or preferential feelings is to provide a sense of pleasure, satisfaction, or fulfillment.
This pursuit of pleasure or fulfillment is often aimed at affirming or validating one’s beliefs or biases, thus reinforcing the internal narratives and desire that has been constructed over time. When a thought-driven desire is fulfilled, it provides a sense of confirmation, either supporting an existing truth or reinforcing a personal bias or lies.
In essence, thoughts serve as the architects of our internal and external realities. They bridge the gap between our invisible desires and the tangible outcomes we experience in life.
By continuously generating ideas and emotional interests, thoughts not only influence how we perceive the world but also how we interact with it, ultimately shaping the course of our lives. Understanding the nature and function of thoughts is crucial for anyone seeking to comprehend the complex relationship between the mind, emotions, and the external world.
