sensory input...ego that's lost in transmission

Is the images we hold in our head an act of divine creation or is it simply random collisions of local thoughts that act to form a individual perspective? I would argue the thoughts and vibrations of others influence my thoughts however my individuality is shaped more during the reception outside thoughts. When I receive conscious energy from others that are operating on different vibrational frequencies I feel what seems to be a vibrational discord between the two frequencies. This discord or static in the transmission is what I would venture to say creates this idea of the human "ego". The Ego is something that is created through a misinterpretation of conscious energy.
