Computer/Brain

A computer's speed is only limited by the hardware running the instructions. 

The energy entering the computer runs at the speed of light (in a vacuum). 

Theoretically, a computer with the proper hardware could run every instruction/calculation/program to infinity and back instantaneously. With the current hardware limitations, a computer slows down when there are too many instructions to keep up with. 

However the better the hardware, the more it can handle at once. (More memory, more storage, more registers, more processing power (more units to keep heat down), etc.) 

Our brain is a computer. Our thoughts move at the speed of light as well. 

However, we are held back by OUR hardware. One of the problems with our hardware and current operating system is that it is ALWAYS running tons of programs all at once. 

When you meditate, go into a sensory deprivation chamber, or when you sit and listen to white noise and put half ping pong balls over your eyes, you are shutting down some of your programs and allowing for faster computation. 

THIS is why "moments of eternity" happen, when you meditate or sleep.  Your brain turns off certain functions and can process more in a shorter amount of time. 

(Your thoughts are technically experiencing a form of time travel) 

When we focus on one thing, and turn off all external stimulus, you can do just about anything you want with your brain. 

This is why autistic people are so good at certain things. They are not affected by all of the external stimulus that we are. They are free to use their entire brain to focus on a single problem. 

The saying is true: "You become what you think about." If you want something enough, you will get it. 

Our brains are incredible computers, if we REALLY, TRULY want something, then we have to take time out of our days to FOCUS on what it is that we want and find the proper instructions on how to get there. 

As this world has proved, time and time again, ANYTHING is possible, if you put your mind to it.
