Your Thoughts Are Not YOUR Thoughts

This video is not original either - I’m sure I got the idea from somewhere!😂

In Buddhist philosophy there are 6 sensory organs, not the traditional 5. The 6th is none other than the mind, they say that to believe that your thoughts come from yourself is to believe that the things you see or hear also come from yourself. Carl Gustav Jung further explored this in his theory of the Collective Unconscious. This is definitely a fascinating topic, I'm happy to see more people taking interest in it.

@@ARC.Alpha-17 I’m glad you enjoyed the video!🙌🏽 You know what though… I’ve been reading a lot on Carl Jung lately.. maybe he was my subconscious inspiration for this video🤯 Thanks for the insight!!

I had a thought about the constraints of originality and thought a couple years ago as I was walking back from the gym. Our thoughts can only form out of a landscape. The landscape that I was considering was the individual words that we know, which are created and defined through culture/society (this may be a narrow view of lingustic anthropology). It's like creating a stir-fry for dinner. We put all the ingredients together, but we sourced them from elsewhere. Even if we grew the vegetables ourselves, we didn't "create" the soil, or the sun, or the water anything else that made it possible for them to grow. We simply tended to them. This is similar to the Sapir-Whorf hypothesis. Language influences perception, but it also influences thought, and constrains what we can do with language itself. I've heard the history of philosophy be described as a lineage of conversations. The Library of Babel looks like an incredibly interesting project thanks for mentioning that! Cool video!

[@EdgarDiazSpeaks]

Very well said! The stir fry itself was passed on through generations until it became a common-place dish; the language we speak is an amalgamation of other languages or an evolution of language spoken in the past - it’s only constrained further because something gets lost in the shuffle! That’s an interesting take on philosophy! I would have to agree although that entire lineage is much more interesting and in-depth than the average conversation😂 Thanks for watching and I really appreciate this comment! I’m glad you enjoyed it!🙏🏽

[@neptunestudio2857]

another modern philosophycal wannabe youtuber, wow I still remember the times philosophy was about being thought provoking, not insultingly nonsensical lmao

[@EdgarDiazSpeaks]

@@neptunestudio2857 it provoked your thoughts enough to make this comment!😅 All jokes aside bro I appreciate you commenting regardless lmao

[@EdgarDiazSpeaks]

@@neptunestudio2857 also… philosophical*🫶🏽

[@neptunestudio2857]

@@EdgarDiazSpeaks and you arent even original in taking constructive criticism, everyone arrogant and snotty says that almost exacly word by word, and it was provokingly insulting and nonsensical thats why I commented lmao not something you should be proud about

[@EdgarDiazSpeaks]

Dude you sound like the “average Reddit user” memes😂 go look up constructive criticism and then come back here and tell me which part of your comment was “constructive” lol

[@neptunestudio2857]

@@EdgarDiazSpeaks says the person throwing passive aggressive insults about being unhappy, thats all you do here. I basicaly summarised my problems with your video, saying something like "insultingly nonsensical" is what constructive (movie for eg.) reviewers say as conclusion. Why even bother with you, this content and behavior is a stain on youtube and I never used reddit.
