"Do human beings really think? We are convinced we create thoughts but the fact we cannot very easily stop our thoughts suggests that something else is thinking and we are merely observing, considering, and choosing among thoughts. Otherwise how could we be the creators of thoughts if we do not know how to manage or stop them? They go on and on whether we invite them or not. We believe we create our thoughts but perhaps we do not. No one really knows where a thought comes from or how it was made despite our progress and increased understanding of neurology and studies of the brain. What if the brain actually was not a creator of thoughts? What if in fact it was more of a receiver, a sorter, and a chooser?"
