Cosmic Thought

Where do ideas come from? The brain is amazing and capable of many things. We have the ability to store away memories and recall them days, months and years later. Doing calculations and problem solving allow us to access the analytical side of our brain. Other times we express out creative side through art, music and many expressions of the word from poetry to literature. Yet where do those "AHA" out of left field thoughts come from?

I propose that the brain is also a receiver. I believe that there is an energy that flows all around us on a similar principal to wi-fi that is a treasure trove of universal information. The brain has the ability to pick up or receive that energy. 

It is common for a person when they have something to think about to say they will sleep on it. Many people like to keep a pen and paper by where they sleep to write down the ideas that come to them as they sleep. It is while in that altered state of consciousness that people are better able to tune into the energy and access its resources. Most don't realize they are doing it. There are others that have honed that ability and are able to focus their minds to have greater access. Over the years I believe Socrates, Leonardo da Vinci, Albert Einstein and Steve Jobs all had that ability. All were reported to meditate and spends much time alone in their minds. 

I also believe flowing within the energy is documentation of all history past and future. While asleep people sometimes get glimpses of future events and when they happen while awake they have a deja vu moment. Again over the years there have been people that could focus their efforts to access this aspect of the energy. The Greek Oracles at Delphi, Nostradamus and Edgar Cayce were among those who accessed the energy for that purpose.

There may be some people whose brains are hardwired so that they are accessing the energy at all times. The over stimulation may impede their ability to focus on the normal and they become lost in their minds. Labels to explain this may run from schizophrenia to autism. A person may have trouble distinguishing where their reality base is if their mind is influenced by both sides.

The source of the energy would answer some important questions. If it occurs naturally then it would be religious in origin. But if the energy is being transmitted then it raises the questions as to by whom and from where?
