If our brains are bound by the laws of physics, then why can our minds break them?

[Holygrail]

We can imagine flying and instantly manifest anything we want within our imaginations, but if our imaginations are bounded by a brain that's bounded to a finite set of physics, then shouldn't our imaginations also be limited by same set of physics as the brain? Can science explain this?

Imagination is not bounded by anything but itself.

Physics does not bound imagination, rather imagination is imagining physics as part of the dream it is spinning.

When you imagine a dog, you limit yourself to not imagining a cat or a mouse. The imagination of finite things is what creates the so-called laws of physics.

If you stopped imagining the laws of physics you would think you've gone insane.

@Holygrail Interesting question. Are our brains bound by the laws of physics?

ahh i see, thanks.

If imagined spaces were inside spacetime then it should be subject to gravity etc.

The materialist will say that the brain is bound by physical laws, and that the image itself (of a place, whatever) does not exist. They absolutely do not and cannot understand that anything that "is", even an illusion, is something that is within existence. The image itself is nowhere in spacetime (nobody is cutting open your brain and pulling out a sack of money if you have an image of a sack of money in your mind), so they say it is non-existent and nowhere.

They literally CANNOT comprehend what is meant by "the image itself". That is why they think the image of money is literally neurons, despite the fact you obviously can't spend neurons in a store. There's much they truly do not have the ability to comprehend, and most people can't without drugging themselves.

interesting way of putting it. i agree that images literally do exist and are not the same thing as neurons.

A neuron is an image in your mind.

Ta-da!
