Is a piece of stone also capable of feeling and thinking?

Doesn’t a magnet exercise choice about what we call magnetic and non-magnetic materials?

Will the picture be clearer if we descend down to the levels of what we call inanimate? What would we see there?

(more detailed discussion : http://www.bhanupadmo.com)/

Update:

http://www.bhanupadmo.com/ This link is working, not the above one.

Update 2:

Majority : why don't you solve the magnet case?

Jesere : Telepathy as mysticism may not serve well. Perception, yes. Do you perceive solidity, outline, color, magnetism etc as basic 'abilities'?

Stardust/ Rock : Are you serious?

Update 3:

Raja : Too many loose ends, characteristic of inconsistent portrayal of eastern philosophy which may not be needing stray interpretation.

Update 4:

aeiou_i : So what possibly is the pertinent definition of feeling and thinking?

    One of the Siddhas sung "The body is a lie; it's just a bag filled with air". It's true that belief makes even a stone powerful but it's insanity to believe that they feel and think. If you take human beings for discussion, even thoughts are not our own. One after another spirits think and we listen and choose or reject based on the knowledge we have possessed. When you believe a stone into something, a spirit takes it's place or possess and begin to do something as you believe. There is nothing in this world without the possession of the spirits. When you buy a new pen in the shop, you buy a new spirit or it is possessed by a spirit after you have bought it.

    This is a short form of my research based on my personal experience. A human being is always living with a group of spirits which have joined one by one since birth. Between creatures (including human beings) and God there are millions of invisible elements. There are divisions too. We are just robots made of different materials (flesh, bones, nerves etc.,) created by scientist God or eternal beings to entertain God. Each of us have memories like computers have RAM. The fed things (data= knowledge=several spirits or invisible elements) are in contact with the memories since childhood. Even thoughts are not our own. One after another the spirits think and we choose (accept) or reject based on the knowledge we possess. If current (electricity) stopped the memory loses all data. This is with computer. The same thing occurs to all of us. Computers are functioning by electric power but human beings are functioning by natural power. We call this as soul. This soul is nothing but simply a power like electricity. If this is stopped our memories lose all data (all spirits or invisible elements). These spirits leave the body and go to different places. No one lives in the form of spirit or anything after death. We are simply our bodies, the toys made for spirits for their games.

    Some people may think stones does when they are drunk and hearing the stones cry after blowing them up to smithereens.

    Gee whiz, you gotta be really stoned.

    On the serious note, no - stones are small rocks with no feelings nor mind.

    Our ancestors stated that rocks have spirits. Our definition of feeling and thinking differs from the one our ancestors would have probably given. Our civilization has alienated from the civilization of our ancestry...

    Edit:

    The one contemporary society adopts as such, for practical intents and purposes.

    A stone is not an entity in itself. If you break it in half you have two stones.
