Intuition can’t take place when we are biased.
It only appears when we are in an unbiased or neutral state of mind. The moment
we are biased or judgmental, we have taken a position, which invites opposing
force to enter. Hence nothing can happen or manifest and intuition won’t
appear. A neutral state of mind and objective perspective, which is the
neutralizing force in that triad, is the prerequisite for the possible
appearance of intuition.
We are very often told that we have to become
more intuitive, or have to use our intuition more often. What we don’t
understand is that intuition is part of a higher faculty and only appears on a
higher level of consciousness. That is, a neutral state of mind automatically
contains the reverberation of a more refined state of consciousness. We once
said that everything has to be earned via conscious effort, and when we are
told or want to be more intuitive or use our intuition more often, we won’t be
able to do so out of our ordinary will and effort.
If I am telling you right now to be intuitive,
that is to use your intuition, you won’t be able to do so, due to the fact that
we don’t really know what intuition truly means to us. In our ordinary state of
consciousness, in a state of ‘yes or no’ or ‘shall I’ or ‘should I’ and ‘either
this’ or ‘better that’, we have to struggle with the law of opposing forces,
which most of the time leads to a massive culmination of thought formations
creating a vacuum, which intensifies the more urgent and desperate we try to
come to a resolution.
The friction and our struggle within that vacuum
forces our battling little ‘ME’s’ to surrender (neutralizing force), which
leads to a release of the thought formation in form of a ‘Aha-moment’, in which
we grasp all we have struggled with for so long in a moment of spacious
perception, manifesting in form of the gift of a resolution. The rising energy
of the ‘Aha’ is the vibration of intuition, which is a finer or higher faculty
within the third body (1st body is the physical, 2nd body
is the psychological and 3rd body is the eternal body). So we
usually struggle and work hard to receive the gift of true understanding via
the faculty of intuition.
Everybody knows how an Aha-moment feels. It
usually is a profoundly liberating and spacious energy spreading throughout our
whole system filling us with vitality and aliveness. And within the vibration
of intuition we, not only understand what we have struggled with
intellectually, but also understand it on all levels at the same time,
instinctually, emotionally and physically. This is usually combined with an
unshakable depth of knowing that requires no defense and includes not only the
resolution, but the required energy to see it through to the end as well.
To summarise:
•
We can
say that through the process and the science of meditation we gradually shift
from external tuition to internal tuition or ‘in- tuition’.
•
Then we
can say that ‘in-tuition’ has to be earned through work on consciousness and
meditation. Also intuition only can enter through the ‘ray of eternity’, once
all the different centres and functions are working to their full potential and
in balance.
•
Furthermore
we can say that Great Ideas only can be understood and grasped by means of
‘in-tuition’, hence true understanding of a particular subject or event, only
manifests the moment we can see it from a higher point of view or perspective.
We can’t truly understand self-consciousness from the level of our ordinary
state of consciousness, which takes place on a much lower frequency. That is,
we have to rise up to the level of what we intend to understand or grasp in the
first place, before we will possess true knowledge of it.
•
Finally
we can say that once we have established a more permanent neutral state of
mind, which in itself is a much higher state of consciousness, ‘in-tuition’ can
reach us with less interference from the law of opposition. In other words, our
life becomes less prone to the law of accident and more congruent via the gift
of ‘perception’.
