Do ideas come from Cleveland

Featured Replies

Some ideas come to you from the Astral realm.
Other ideas come to you as a result of environmental stimulation.
Yet other ideas come to you from your ancestral memory.
And I believe there are many many more sources.

How can you tell. Does the idea feel different based on its origin.

So do you find  any difference in he veracity or emotional content of the thoughts based on point of origin.

Sometimes.

Thoughts that come to me from the spiritual realms seem to bring more excitement and a feeling of "relief" than thoughts that I sit down and generate on my own.

All great ideas spring forth from the collective mind of A.I. enhanced social media. That seems to be the herd mentality nowadays.

 

Sometimes when I'm working on a problem I just let it go (stop trying to thing about it) and a solution comes to me. I think, "let me sleep on it," is very powerful. Where these ideas and solutions come from is anyone's guess but I would start with the brain.

What about the mind?

Lol, you're welcome.

I'm glad you acknowledge the difference between the brain and the mind!

Not sure where Delano was going with his question to you, but at the risk of stealing some of his thunder....what if I were to tell you that the OPPOSITE were true?

What if I were to tell you that instead of ideas coming FROM your brain, much of them come from your MIND which is not only separate from your brain but your brain is actually a filter that PREVENTS most of the ideas and information in your mind from manifesting?
