This is so true. There was a great Armenian mind
Georges Ivanovich Gurdjieff.
He taught dance and wisdom and was known to teach that the ordinary human mind is in a state of almost sleep.
It was the rare mind that was more attuned to the realization of of consciousness. The concept of a link to all thought is not so strange. The really big challenge is whether we can rise to push ourselves beyond or through the boundary of paths set in motion for us.
If all thought is known, then free will is being able to make choice. Choice may not be as easy as we would like to believe. Imagine having the whole pressure of a predicted future based on the thoughts you make and shaping to accommodate them accordingly.
Consciousness is the key, all of us have a degree of consciousness. The key to knowing a choice is to firmly implant it and meditate upon it and feel the inner self guiding if it is good. Then firmly meditate upon the other. If it feels better or worse that is because it is.
Understanding consciousness is knowing you have choice, but it may actually take more effort than you really might think it does. Something to think on.
