Can we conttrol our thoughts?

I guess it's pretty well established that our thoughts originate in our brain. So if we can control them where/what is the controller? And if we can't control them, then what?

There are philosophies that say perhaps our brain isn't a computer within itself, but maybe a receiver and transmitter.

And medical evidence is finding neuron simialr cells in our stomachs and other organs.

Not to mention, our chemical and electrical bodies are filled with more microorganisms than human cells.

So ....do we think for ourselves - or are our brains just a fliter for all the information being sent to it?

Maybe the brain is the switch box for our trains of thought🤔

If we cant control them, we obsess.🤷
