Resolved Question

What happens to a thought after you've thought it?

Is it just coincidence that when you think of a long lost friend they call or you see them? What about if you think of the answer to the question before it is asked usually when standing next to the asker? Doesn't it seem like they thought it before they asked and that thought traveled and in some cases piqued your brain?

These questions have puzzled mankind since thought was invented.

there is theory that it creates a new wrinkle in your brain and that little branch either grows and flourishes if its good and causes a black hole of sorts if its not.... they stay in the brain and every thought has to be dealt with or it causes a kink in the function of the brain....
negativity and repressed worries saddness and concern cause illness

Thoughts seem to travel. When I pick up on a thought that I know isn't mine, I bring it up. People usually react well. They are often amused by the "coincidence" and feel connected with you for that moment. In some cases, the feeling that we "shared an experience together" never went away.

That was a lot of questions.

I believe you keep thinking the thought, in a way, it just slips further back in your mind. I'm sure we all have experienced trying to remember a name, not managing to, then doing something else for a while and forgetting all about it, and then (maybe even days later), when the situation comes that you need to know his name again, you know it instantly! That indicates that the brain keeps processing our thoughts after we've thought them. Maybe the sum of all those thought trails are part of what makes up an "unexplainable mood"?

its almost possible that through a psychic channel mankind have the ability to read thoughts!!!
i mean how do you know the person loves you (the first time you meet them????)

how do you know the person is trust worthy? (in the first meeting)

how do you know something thats right for you???

obviously we take RISKS and a lot of them just FIT together like a puzzle..amazing

Nothing. It never existed, you only thought it did.

How much does an idea weigh? How much space does it occupy?

To one who can "see" beyond the rather narrow limits of the physical 3-Dimensional world, a thought has form and energy; it has an energetic signature that typifies its nature and all the emotions and designs that went to create it. Often, while another person can't specifically "see" such a thoughtform, they can "sense" it being there, or they are inspired to activate a similar thought or memory within their own being.

Then, besides being recorded in one's own subconscious mind, the thought also is passed on to the collective human mind - the Unconscious mind or Unified Consciousness Field, from which any human can tap into and draw it down into manifestation through themselves, if they are thinking along the same lines as the thought in question...

Thus, one can never say, "It was only a thought; it wouldn't have affected anyone else". We live in a sea of everyones' thoughts - they are what helps to create our reality (though the time lapse between a thought's origination and manifestation may cause one to not link the two, and not recognise that this is so).

i HAVE READ THAT THOUGHTS BECOME THINGS. THEY HAVE GOT TO EXIST IN YOUR MIND FIRST IN ORDER TO MATERIALIZE LATER.

It gets stored to your head somewhere in the cobwebs and dusty old archive.... Usually that's what I'd like to think about my thoughts.

I beleve so, and I agrre with the people, especially mr.w up there, about a thought having a signature or energy. I beleive also as he said, that we must look outside the three dimensional world. we must also understand that time is a man made concept, brought about simply by the movement of matter and energy through space. so if you take into account that time doesn't exist in a literal form, you would realise that all things that have happened, will happen, and are happening, have already occured. now with that in mind it is possible that since you already heard them say something in what we call the"future," that you were were able to answer it in the form of the "present." so in a way it's like you hear the question before it was asked. it happens to me alot.

Either:

A) If it's a nice thought, it makes flowers grow in some part of the universe; or,

B) If it's a not-so-nice thought, it goes and hunts down squirrels.

if you feed it, it grows. if you don't, it dies. if you share it, it may multiply.

What you are talking about is telepathy, and this is very much so real. Thoughts can be taken to a whole new level when given the right projection and meaning.

After you think the thought it floats up to a place somewhere they keep them. When it gets there it is placed in a computer and evaluated. The winning thought everyday receives a prize and the loosing thought a brain fart.
