Thought Moments asks ten questions, and records the responses of people on the streets of Leeds, Birmingham, Bristol, London and Brighton. The questions are simple, but they seek to reveal our true nature: our loves, fears and desires.

‘Thought Moments’ is a Buddhist term for the ‘mental states experienced after a physical or mental object enters the mind’ (a physical object is something in the ‘real’ world that we can see, hear, touch or sense in any way. A mental object is something that is in our mind, that we can either remember or imagine seeing, hearing, touching or sensing in any way).

“I read about ‘Thought Moments’ when I was a Theravada Buddhist monk in Bangkok, Thailand. I learned that the Buddha identified thought moments and their sequences, quite specifically, going so far as to count and name them. The next day, I read an article in a Bangkok Post (delivered every day to the temple) about a new technique in America for scanning the brain which showed the sequence of brain states during the thought process, even going so far as to count and name them. The frequency of these thought moments described by both the Buddha and the scientists were remarkably similar.” - MST.
