Though we create images or concepts of what is not actually present to the senses, we usually base the images we create on what we believe is reality. Paradoxically, we many times rely on previous imaginations, which may be pure misconception, to evaluate our present reality. The mind creates images, mental image pictures. These images contain the perceptions and memories from our senses and the creation images we form out of our creative imagination and creative intelligence. Emotions are an indication of our imaginations in the material world.
Emotion is the tangible of the intangible imagination.
It is the direct chemical result of our image creations. We spend more time in our imaginations than most people have ever realized. It's almost as though no one wants to admit that we spend as much time in our imaginations as we really do. When we understand this basic principle, we unlock the secrets of the mind. When we realize the time spent in positive imaginations such as planning, hoping, dreaming, receiving impressions, perceiving, using our creative intelligence, versus the time spent in negative imaginations misinterpreting, assuming, jumping to conclusions, plotting, forming and using complexes, unfulfilled desires, misjudging others and ourselves, and resenting, it can be safely concluded that the majority of our thoughts are a product of the creative imagination.
