I don't know whats worse...the irony that he's the one that needs to be on med's or his role in war of the worlds.

Most people don't realise that this statement is a double negative so I find it to be true. :)

that'll end up doing it too.


as far as thinking in words, i find myself thinking in words a lot...which is odd because i normally have trouble communicating when it comes to speaking. i do great with typing and things like online forums and such because it's essentially the same as thinking in words in the mind. oddness.
okay...my post is done...goodbye.

I was considering Monks, some of them do not speak for years or even decades - Vow of silence - are their minds devoid of Words ?

People think in words, whether they speak those words or not. Monks are expected to study scripture and pray silently, even when they do not speak to each other.

Talking of Buddhist monks I presume, I'd say much of their intention and/or ultimate goal is to find the inner peace, which from descriptions, is quite inadaquately described by words at all. And as mentioned, the deepest meditations are without words...or even thoughts at all. Much of the chanting and prayer are merely catalysts to initiate the intent to unfocus the mind from typical "thinking", if that makes sense.

I've had this discussion with a few friends.
Some of them think more in pictures and words.
I'm not good at visualising pictures - and im useless at Art.
Wondering if it is connected.

You think in words because that's how you were taught to communicate. How does a person born deaf and blind learn and think? (Forgive me if this has already been covered in this thread...it's been a long day, my eyes feel like they're bleeding and I just can't read through this all tonight. Sorry).

I'm not sure about that, but I HAVE heard people with perfect pitch talk about the "color" of sound. They're being figurative, though.

There's a guy who is reputed to be a savant who thinks in terms of colour and shape, and as a party piece recites Pi to 10,000 decimal places or something equally crazy. I forget his name, but he's also considered autistic.

We probably don't know as much as we think we do about the workings of the mind - you can only vouch for your own. My thoughts often seem silent - it's like I just have an idea from nowhere. Sometimes they are more narrative - so yeah, my thoughts are in English. It varies depending on subject matter.

I only see pretty pictures after a heavy night.... :D

**EDIT** - The guy's name is Daniel Tammet - I found this article...
