Yeah, some confusion in the translation me thinks....

"Myself" & my "self".

I would also agree that the ego carries little wisdom at all, and infact is probably the seed of ignorance eh?

My all time favorite book..In The Dark Places Of Wisdom by Peter Kingsley.

Veeeery deep. Interesting stuff about "incubation" and the lost and forgotten secrets of self-healing.


Might have a glimpse at that


Yup ego, is the main problem in this world. Most humanity still wail on it. It's what causing the animal behaviour. It's what's causing the ignorance too in today's world.

Greed, war and aggression. The basic animal behaviour's. The most basic intellegence is survival. This is what I'm been trying to get through to people over the last few months. Look at the world today, look at how humanity behave's. Look at the wars, how are we behaving. The majority of human's still behave like animals pretty much, and what's that again - on the survival mode, even when they are not aggressive. People are not learning or tapping into their wisdom. People are giving their mind's up and power up to the animal king's of this planet. I say animal king's as they are the master of been the animal.

The elites, the riches, the materilistic etc.

Sheeple would be the word I would use for the rest of the people. I kinda went a little off topic, but I needed to say this anyhoo

I love your rather confusing description...I do understand.

It's the fact that the "intelligences" have been split into different categories that brought me here in the first place.

9 of them and EVERYTHING in between, above, below and around etc is more how I see it.

Quote: Donnie Darko:

"You can't just "lump" everything together like that"

Infinate degrees of everything. The moment you begin to categorise is the moment you start placing limits on the possibilities and perspectives.

But inner truth is in everyone, and most people don't tap that part. Where the wisdom is.

It is ignorant of course to blindly say that your personal truth is all knowing. That is not wisdom. I have inner knowing and the inner source from within speaks to me, it's true as it comes to me. But I don't hold that knowing to be the ultimate. I don't take the wisdom personal. Wisdom isn't personal. I would think that is ignorant and blocking actual wisdom from coming through to think wisdom comes from the self.


Does this make much sense?


Maybe he meant, been true to yourself, means wisdom is coming through, rather than followin your own wisdom. God this is confusing lol.

I agree with you.

Wisdom is more like an action that you base on your current level of understanding.

"Wisdom is the doing or choosing from inner truth."

I hope you understand, wisdom takes courage.

Wisdom from wikipedia, just to see:

First sentance,

"Wisdom is knowledge, understanding, experience, discretion, and intuitive understanding, along with a capacity to apply these qualities well towards finding solutions to problems."

Cool.

Being wise is taking advantage of all your lessons, knowledge, truth, understanding, and anything that will help you make the right decisions in your life, for you and no others.(unless its advice) It sounds selfish, but, in truth, if your following your self and your truths and dreams, you become more loving to others with it, the more you do it. You just wont be wasting your time with those who do not show love back. Not that you dont care Not reciving love is just as unhealthy as not giving love.

Q: So if someone accumulates a wealth of knowledge over the years are you saying that it can't help them become intelligent?

They have expiriance.It's easy when you specialise in something, you know it all.What if something pops up that you are not familiar and you have no book this time.You know alot but you remain like a child in from of a new thing.Do you have what it takes to figure it out.

Inteligence is not knowing something is getting to know something by your own doing, intuition, the ability to get ideas from a hint, and to glue things
in one pice with out alot to go on is real inteligence.

An expirienced person can be inteligent because he may be also smart, but a inteligent person can also not be inteligent.Anyone can learn by reapiting something over and over the same thing will eventualy learn.

Manuals are good, because they are useful, how inteligent would you be if you were left in the middle of the jungle? Sure you might know a few things like north,south,east,west but the unknown waits for you, you have to get ideas of your own that you know blank about and turn them in to reallity.Guessing something based on some factors that are surounding you will also make you inteligent.

Inventors, scientists, astonemers for example are inteligent people because they are able to bring in something new that is not in their knolege and in the manual.

Reading something step by step and then doing that does not make a person inteligent.Dumb people will learn too..

Well that I agree alot with. I believe cosmic intellegence, is not something you just pick up. I think it's an intellegence your naturally born with. Infact I think we all are. But we are just not intune to it. It's stems from the full awarness of the reality around you, and your self been in the reality. The universe is like a mirror onto your soul. And whether you have the awarness of cosmic intellegence, it still reflects everyone's soul. We are the universe. The universe is shown to us, for us to understand ourselves as the universe is us.

So i doubt your statement that it's rare to have this ability though. Many people have cosmic intellegence on a pure level within, but don't talk about it. All people have it but don't access it.

In my case, I have internal wisdom coming through from me, from how the universe is showing to me and what's revealed to my conciouseness. I understand it, and other's may understand it, if I try express what it is I'm been shown.

Some people would just look at me and go, WTF is he on about. So alot of people don't talk about it, as it's not the compatitble knowledge to the daily hectic lives we live in today of work, run and sleep etc. Even though it's something we should be sternly trying bring awarness onto.

I think your absolutely right. Some people nuture it and allow it to grow into something beautiful and others forget it or put it to the very back of their mind. I call it an intelligence because so many people do not utalize in the knowing or they have a hard time understanding their inner truth.

Some people are at the level that ego is love and that is their only truth. Could you explain comsic intelligence to them with their understanding?
Although the potential is there, each soul is at a different evolutionary level and that is a huge step that some are not ready for.

People are limited by their understanding. Some of us can bring people awareness and I see that happening around the world, but people have to be ready to except it and each person is different.

So as I say, allow the winds of life to take you where your needed and spread the love of god wherever you go. You are making a difference.
