Within the realms of understanding - I believe that the intellect and the knowledge it can acquire in any given moment is designed to only understand so much - it can only go so far along the continuum - that if you really want to understand the ultimate truth of anything you have to go to the heart’s wisdom and grace - with all heart and soul - it is designed that way - very creative don’t you think when you consider where all love is found.
Put another way - knowledge has to become wisdom - which is an act of faith as it is beyond the intellect - in order to understand the ultimate truth of any matter - at its heart. The intellect no matter how sharp it has become or the IQ behind it - in understanding the realms of truth it can only go so far.
There is a point - a point of surrender in any thought process - no matter how deep our intellectual quest to understand is - when to move forward in any pursuit of understanding we must let go of intellect and enter the realm of the heart - literally rather like entering a black hole….a certain form of alchemy is required - indeed we may call it the transformation of matter into spirit.
It’s like I have always had my greatest insights on the way to and from the bathroom in the early morning - coming so soon after sleep - my mind not yet engaged - something I have been working on for a considerable time to understand - the heart of the matter pops up in the moment and all wisdom is mine - hallelujah!
In all reality there is a place within all of us that is always connected to it all - we are one with the universe and the universe is one with us. However - there is an element to all of this that says we can’t know something before it’s given us to know. There is a timing to knowing all wisdom - such is the process of any destiny in a given lifetime - creation in motion.
So many of us from time to time look back out of our remembrance of suffering and wish that we knew back then what we know now - but it simply wasn’t given us to know back then. In any time-based continuum, all wisdom and grace are ours within - (remember we are always connected) - our awareness of that however is restricted from view until the perfect moment in this great play we call life - another part of the creative process - the Dance of Maya.
