All thoughts come from the past. There is no new thought because every thought is fundamentally grounded in the past. New means freedom from the past. High thoughts are those in which thinking happens in such a way that thinking stops and an understanding happens. This can be done only when there is impartial observation. Poor thinking is an untamed thought which goes on expanding madly like a cancer and destroys everything.

Questioner: What are high thoughts and low thoughts?
Acharya Prashant: LetтАЩs see. Think that you are speaking in the Russian language or in the Spanish language. Is it possible to think so?
Questioner: No.
Acharya Prashant: It is not; because to think, there must be some relation of the thought with your past.
Now write down a law: All thoughts come from the past.
We often say that we have a new thought. But actually, there is no new idea or new thought because every thought is fundamentally grounded in the past. It is coming from the past; there is nothing new in that. Every thought comes from the past experiences and we know that past experiences are limited. All our thoughts come from those past experiences.
