When you create a new account anywhere, it's like a new toy, isn't it? You have to check out all the things you can and can't do with it. It won't be the norm for me to post every day, much less multiple posts as I've done today.
So that question, why call it matter over mind?
Well, remember I said I'm all into the subatomic and quantum physics and stuff like that. So my head is always busy in the background with these visual loops of particles and energy fields moving and doing stuff. It's not an interest. I didn't ask for it. It just started at some point in my life and has been there ever since.
So my years of this have led me to understand the world a certain way. And how I understand it is that everything is connected. The body and the mind cannot be separated. It's not about mind over matter, because your mind IS matter. Your mind is a combination of your physical brain, which is made of cells, which are made of molecules, which are made of atoms, which are made of subatomic particles, and your external magnetic field, the energy that surrounds you to a certain distance.
Remember, this is just how I perceive things. Everybody has their own visuals and their own language for things. I like to understand things, and I seem to need more of a visual to work with than most people. Having a visual for how things work, for what's going on, is sort of comforting, like a favorite movie you can watch again anytime.
I don't believe our thoughts and memories are stored in our physical brain. I don't believe they're stored anywhere in us, not even in our external magnetic field. That has to do with stuff like quantum entanglement, and that's a whole other conversation. For now, I'll just say that your thoughts and memories are everywhere in the "medium" and are always immediately available to you. It's kind of like cloud storage, except in this case there's no banks of servers. All your stuff is somewhere else, possibly in a lot of different locations, but when you need it, it's all right there.
Your thoughts are matter. They are little particles of information. So are your memories. In fact, just like how scientists keep discovering smaller particles make up every particle they say is the smallest possible, your thoughts and memories and other elements of your consciousness are made of all kinds of information packets that are made of a lot of smaller packets of information. When you retrieve a memory, you're retrieving bits of information that are all over the place, even though you experience the memory as one cohesive thing.
Another thing I strongly believe, and have for years, is that there is no original thought. Your thoughts are all pieces of other thoughts that you have had, and you were not the first to have them. The exact thought you're having right now may seem unique to your day and your experience, but it's actually made of all kinds of pieces of thoughts that others have had long before you even existed. You either understand that or you don't.
I came to realize at some point that my best thinking and creativity wasn't me, wasn't intelligence per se, wasn't talent or aptitude. Something in my DNA is coded for me being receptive to information about certain subjects, and I've learned to just go with that. It isn't me thinking. It's pieces of other thoughts that weren't mine, that come to me.
No, I'm not talking about hearing voices, or having hallucinations of any type. Nobody is talking to me. Nobody is putting thoughts in my head. The universe is pure energy and pure information. Energy never dies. Information never dies. Everything is connected. There are people who believe in heaven and hell, or in ghosts, who would dismiss what I'm saying. Like I said, perceptions vary, and what works for me might not work for you.
