Can you put all of your thoughts into a small glass jar and fill it up?

From the mind to the physical world. Could you achieve this? If a mushy and wet thingy like a brain can do it? Why can't the jar?






philosophy people...come on..

My thoughts can fill up half a pistachio shell.

the brain does not contain thoughts.......it produces them at the very moment in use, then they're gone forever. If desired later, the brain can reproduce the same thoughts......

Yeah, plus the composition of a glass jar and the air inside it doesn't allow for internalization.

Shakyamunison
^ Now look what we have done. eek! Have we gone too far?

Thinking of fleeting thoughts in a glass jar, will not lead to internalization or enlightenment. laughing

I am the only person to vote. eek!

debbiejo
Ok, I voted............I view thoughts like this. They are not part of your brain though your brain I believe is a receptor of them. Thoughts and ideas can come from outside of yourself through energy waves or whatever you want to call them, just like when you're done with your thoughts they leave out as energy waves and can be picked up by others.

Sorry, this thread has gone nuts. laughing

Well, the question is a bit vague. I don't really know what more we can make of it. Thoughts are dependant on the brain to have any substance, even if that substance is purely metaphysical. The composition of the inside of a jar can't produce thoughts nor can it maintain then. However, I suppose you COULD perpetuate thoughts by putting a book in the jar.

I think you need to lay off the cookies there WD wink


The Great AOR has spoken

debbiejo
laughing out loud ..Yeah, that is kinda funny WD.........

I think thoughts are so massive when you include the whole populous that we're swimming in them unaware.

Mindship
I heard once that the number of thoughts you can fit into a jar is equal to half the cube root of the number of angels you can fit on the head of a pin...or is it the other way around...?

debbiejo
Thoughts penetrate water ya know....

my problem here is that thoughts are intangible and u cant fill a select volume with inteangible material no matter what it is.
