#97: The Science of Thinking and the Power of Thought

The Science of Thinking: How does the brain work? How do we learn? Why do we sometimes make stupid mistakes? These questions lead us to question the power of thought: How powerful are our thoughts? Can we develop ourselves by using our thoughts? Is thought a powerful force? What can we achieve with our thoughts according to science? What is painting reality around us? Can we influence, harness our thoughts, desires? Intuitively, a thought seems like the weakest force in nature, incomparable to other hidden forces that can change the velocity of an object, for example. Thoughts also seem weaker than physical actions. Still, as recent psychological and neuroscience studies show, thought can be far more influential than intuition would suggest. Thought could even change the structure of our brain, and that is only the start. The same neural pathways we engage by physically acting, we can similarly engage by simply imagining that action. The studies also suggest that to develop ourselves, thought is critical. But these studies do not suggest that we can actually influence physical reality through our thoughts in a critical way. The wisdom of Kabbalah teaches that there is a level of development one can reach that goes beyond one’s skin, a state that can be reached by using the power of thought. In humanity, the organizing signals that pass from one to another are our thoughts and desires, which arise within us and which are outside our control. The outcome of these instinctively flowing thoughts and desires is the grim and worsening reality we see around us. This is the unconscious manifestation of the ego playing itself out. However, we can consciously depict the desired state we want to reach, and then we can reach it by using the power of thought. First, of course, we would need to know about the destined state we are supposed to reach. We also have imaginal cells within us, which are capable of depicting this future state and driving the process toward it. That is what we'll talk about at this Open Diner. Join us!
