Most People Now 'Think' in Pictures...do you?
I think in both, words/reason and in pictures but it's always the "Words" that allow me to see these pictures.
In a sense, Words are worth a 1000 pictures for me.
Interesting to note, ancient man and probably other mammals think and thought in pictures.
Just think of a familiar path that ultimately lead to the den of a bear...it wasn't pretty,...one's instinctive response to this mental image would be to go the other way and survive another day.
How about you?

I, myself, still see number patterns the way they were represented when I learned numbers like, 4 dots as a square, 5 with one dot at the top middle of 4 dots as a square...etc.
For what it is worth, for some reason (maybe my wooden blocks), I associate every letter and the first few numbers with a color. If you give me a letter, the letter in that color pops right up in my mind. A is red. E is blue. T is brown...
I used that process when I imagined, then drew my house.

What was I thinking about? [/sarcasm]
"control the formation of these images or just follow them with single minded focus." this is what my neothink mentor calls: Down line focus.
I think these insights come from quantum entanglement wave exchanges to our minds and decoded by the brain. One can, on occasion, receive insights they might deem, no academic right to have...now That is spooky!
"It seems to me that what you call full consciousness is a limit case which can never be fully accomplished. This seems to me connected with the fact called the narrowness of consciousness (Enge des Bewusstseins)"
Einstein basically practiced something called image streaming. The idea is that there are a bunch of images that are constantly streaming through our brains, no matter what work we are pre-occupied with. This image streaming can become a meditative practice if you either control the formation of these images or just follow them with single minded focus. Something of what Einstein practiced was wired into image streaming. This means that a lot of his discovered were actually just creative thought processes perceived intuitively.
We think of meditation as following the breath, but for Einstein meditation was following thought. He had learned how to see the burst of light expanding, traveling at the same speed for the two observers. To the moving observer on the train, the circle of light expanded equally on all sides. To the stationary one on the platform, the light expanded also, but in addition Einstein saw the movement of the train caused one side to meet the wave earlier than the other side. I mimic his thoughts, one-by-one, I think with him and, in this moment, what Einstein thought I think. His insight becomes mine. Our conclusions: simultaneity is relative. Moving clocks run slow. Lengths are foreshortened along the direction of motion. No laboratory is needed, only the mind and the amazing power of pure thought.
Me old dino be old-fashioned. I tell people who want to talk to me just to freaking talk to me.
Call Me~like Blondie sang back in the 70s when there weren't cell phones period.
The setting of my novel is 1914 where I'm comfy with old stuff.
Love to use the word processor in my PC, though.
I could just imagine what the left would think about the last one...might be worth the laugh.
But here again...these are not the pictures the social media crowd or the left anti-society types are looking at, and remember, they misunderstand words as well.
That's the point of the article.
