Sadly in this so called modern age these two facets of Consciousness and Intuition a real part of our existence are ignored, abandoned and ridiculed in favor of the intellect.
The intellect is simply a calculating machine. For any argument you want to put forward intellectually, I can come with a counter argument. There is never actually an end to intellectual discussion - it is always BINARY - UNTIL - you consciously have the clear answer - which is not an intellectual process.
For example - we can intellectually discuss a banana or snow - that someone has never seen before - we can postulate all kinds of theories and a person can learn all about those things intellectually - but only once they consciously experience eating a banana or walking across the snow - do they actually 100% know for certain about those aspects of reality. Conscious experience beats intellect every time.
The same goes even more so for Intuition.
You can read biographies of famous song writers and scientists - who will tell you "the song just came to me" - "I didn't really write it myself, it just fell out onto the page"
- how did that happen ?
It's intuitive.
Einstein's work is more philosophy and conscious intuition than it is logic and intellect.
He said it himself - without imagination you don't have science. Imagination is a part of the consciousness.
With consciousness you can tap into the universal matrix and download knowledge to yourself. If this wasn't the case we'd still be banging sticks and eating fruit in the trees like monkeys do.
We have become religious fanatics in regards to the intellect - that everything must be intellectually perfect - and in doing so we have lost the ability to tap into consciousness and intuition.
It's very easy to feed and to improve consciousness. You just have to be calm and clear and happy - a bit like a child. We could do with some more of this than intellectual masturbation.
I reach for my phone before it rings and I know who is calling me - everyone does this from time to time.
I've been in a 50,000 stadium for a concert with no seating allocation and I find my friends (who I wasn't even sure if they were coming or not) - no cell phone needed, just mosey about and find them in the stands somewhere.... I've had a flat battery and no map in the country side at night and just taken turns on intuition until I found the place I was looking for. How is that possible - statistically impossible ? Consciousness !
Another time you get in a panic and you could drive around all night right past the place 50 times without thinking to stop.
It's not always possible to repeat these things in tests - Sorry I am not a super hero with skills on tap - but the consciousness is far more powerful than anyone gives it credit.
Work on it - try it !
We're trying to puzzle out the Q drops and these two facets will certainly be helpful.
As a musician I totally get where you're coming from. I've written songs and the best ones came to me without much actual thought, many times as I am just about to fall asleep. Many great musicians will talk about out of body experiences, where when you are playing but, it's not you playing, the music is flowing through you. You are simply a conduit. I still remember the first time this happened to me. We were jamming and recorded it. When I heard the playback the next day I knew it was me playing guitar but, I was playing stuff I didn't know how to play and couldn't play if I tried. This is awesome when it happens, but, it's something where your mind has to be in the right place. There is no thought, it's a complete state of consciousness. If I could bottle this and sell it I would be richer than Bezos.
As I get older I joke about my "Bullshit Detector". I can tell within a few seconds of meeting somebody if they are a douche bag, or not. Many times the reasons aren't obvious at the time but, come to light later. However, the feeling is there, even if I want to like the person. Same with situations, I just know certain situations aren't right. Again, the reasons aren't immediately apparent sometimes. The problem, for me, is when I try to think too much, try to apply too much reason and that's where I get in trouble. It's the thought process that over-rides the consciousness. It's the difference between going with your gut or trying to think your way through something. Nothing wrong with thought, reason and logic but, if your gut, or whatever, is trying to tell you something it's usually best to just go with it, even if it isn't apparent why at the time. The reasons will come to you in time. Thankfully, as I get older, I listen more to my gut than I used to. I've found out, the hard way sometimes, that it is usually right.
Thanks for the thought provoking post.
The best songs I ever wrote, I wrote in 20 minutes or an hour. Usually when someone dies or it's an extremely emotional topic. When I have to sit and think, and take weeks to write a song, it's never one of my best.
yes i know what you mean....
very nice...
i think the so called AI - which is really just mechanical response mechanisms, is going to sorely struggle against these talents.
this is where the future of humanity lies - we can become X Men if we try.
Yes!
Just a day or so ago, I started writing a song while in a dream. I was watching as someone else performed.
When I woke up, I could still remember it...but I did not capture it. Didn't sing it into a recorder or anything.
I've got to develop better songwriting habits.
We walk with God and it’s through Christ we connect to all.
GREAT POST
This is part of why they brainwashed people with political correctness, tolerance, and acceptance.
They want to disable these internal features. They don't want us judging or thinking, cuz eventually we will start to figure out their games. Intuition is the very thing that can keep u alive in split second or dire situation. Helps u make good decisions overall, and the good news is u can hone it with practice.

Thank you for the formatting. I wish everyone did that.
yeah its hard to say whether it's deliberate or just misery needs company, but certainly the intellectual demons are a menace.
