Now my question:
Is there something in nature which translates "thought" (sensations or experiences, whatever it is best to call them) into "action" (more sensations or bodily movement)? Yes/no.

1} metaphysical-1, mind/intellect/concepts and,
2} occupied space ergo action/dynamic space.
Essence of dynamic action/dynamic space is a trinity;
1} Gravity ( ),
2} Time ^v i.e. observed physical/energy/frequency/reality[/color] and,
3} Space )( dark energy. Or so I speculate.
The thought process is never static/stagnant. It is always action/dynamic because Space ( ) - Time ^v - Space )( is eternally dynamic process of cause, effect with resultant access to metaphysical-1, mind/intellect/concepts.
Physical/energy{ Time ^v } cannot be created nor destroyed and neither can Gravitational Space ( ) or Dark Energy Space )(.
Will = spirit-of-intent.
Spirit-of-intent = Spirit-1, metaphysical-1, mind/intellect/concepts.
Spirit-2 = physical/energy i.e. fermions, bosons and any aggregate collection thereof.
Simple, not complex to grasp. imho
We transfer information quanta bits{ ex mass } as, say the word 'information', however, if the geometrical pattern is changed ex nfintoiram we still have same quantity of information bits/mass yet no concept is communicated.
This difference between spirit-1, metaphysical-1, mind/intellect/concepts and spirit-2, physical/energy.
Simple to grasp, not complex. imho
Spirit-1 is resultant of spirit-2 i.e no spirit-2 experience then no access to spirit-1 concepts. Simple, not complex. imho

No. --- "Thoughts do NOT translate into "action".Mgrinder wrote:Is there something in nature which translate "thought" (sensations or experiences, whatever it is best to call them) into "actions" (more sensations or bodily movement)? Yes/No?
"Thoughts" ARE just another bodily (re-)"ACTION"! (In fact, we don't/can't 'know' what we "think" until after we experience the thought). The same inner force (urge/want/will/desire) that cause bodily "movement", also cause "thought".
We DO as we WANT (...not as we "think"!).
