For everything that belongs to the physical world was thought long ago, and we do nothing more than repeat those thoughts—and then in an incorrect manner. For example, when someone hears a bell ringing, the sound is not something real, but rather, millions of years ago, what became the bell was thought, and what became our brain was also thought, and the collision of these two produces the sound we hear.
