LAW OF TREE (24)
INTELLIGENCE
"Intelligence communicates
instantaneously with intelligence, wherever and in whatever it acts.
This is so between people, between a musician and his instrument,
between persona and an idea. We can understand the world because it
has intelligence. The true scientist listens to the intelligence of
Nature in a form of dialogue." Anthony Blake
Intelligence manifests threefold. Intelligence asks questions, answers questions and reconciles the questions and the answers. If we can have a conversation, it is by virtue of the
presence of Intelligence in each of us as well as in between us. It is
by virtue of the presence of Intelligence that we can have a
conversation with God or Nature.
In the trinitarian christian formula, we pray to the Father in the name of the Son by the power
of the Holy Spirit. Perhaps it would be equally right to say I pray to the Father in the
name of the Son by the power of Intelligence?
Intelligence plays
three roles simultaneously. Intelligence recognises and respects the
denying force as an indispensable dimension of itself. It plays the
active force as the desire to know. And in allows the arising of meaning to reconcile the meaningless and the contradictory.
Intelligence grows
through understanding. When the intelligence of the head, heart, body see as a single "I". understanding arises to becomes an instrument of the will. (4th
force)
Suffering
is an inevitable factor in existing and being alive; and the failure
to understand suffering is one of the major signs of the lack of
intelligence in our world today.
A.Blake.
