A being of pure intuition
    #14508537 - 05/25/11 05:59 AM (12 years, 8 months ago)

Someone once said, on one of these boards, the aim of human existence to make a 'return' back to a state of pure intuition, away from reasoning and logical analysis.

Can this person, if they are still on the boards, please elaborate? I feel they were definitely onto something.

If they are not, can anyone else tell me more about intuition and how to cultivate it?

intuition might be subconscious logical analysis. I kinda always though that. It seemed logical that training would take over and direct that feeling you know and then are right without it being obvious.

I don't know if this is what people mean when they say intuition but you know that voice in ur head when ur thinking that you call you. Apperantly that's not the only voice in ur head.
When i am completely silent and listen to my mind there seems to be one voice that operates mostly and that's the voice that does reasoning and takes a long route to come to conclusions, they often proof false. (i assume this is what folks call the ego)
There's actually another voice that doesn't think but only makes statements , it definetly feels like a different voice than my reasoning voice and it seems to hit the truth more often.
You can try talking to the other voice with ur reasoning voice and it replies instantly, hard to make sense out of it tho. And really hard to distinguish this from ur own voice but the difference of the 2 voices is that my reasoning side has to think of words and the other voice just pops up entire sentences i never thought of before. I'm working on making this voice display visual messages and while so far there's been some interesting results i haven't been able to make sense out of imagery before.

These scientist bigshots created a device. Hooks up to your brain n what not and offers you two choices. Can't remember exactly how it works but it was something like Left click one choice , right click is the other.
Apparently , they know which one you will choose before you are even aware of making the choice.

Idk..
your post just made me think of that so i tried to make a connection. :shrug:

Hmmmmmmmmmmm

Sometimes I open the cupboard to find myself staring at exactly what I was looking for, without searching. Sometimes I open canned food perfectly when I don't think about it or accidentally look away, or I contemplate freedom and a bird flies overhead...

This is my primary focus at the moment. It is very interestng.

IMO its not necessary to move away from logic/reason, but rather to use them in an intuitive way

You can logically deduce that you are infinity itself, then you use that firm totally logical knowledge & bring it into your actual experience using intuition by subtley (non-dualistically) sensing the presence of your Self

Intuition often points to Logic.. And it's logical that we be intuitive..

That's close to what I've been 'deducing' in various ways except I'd suggest saying 'you are infinity' is not quite correct. More like by definition, it's incomplete without you, therefore you are a part of it. This leaves you at 'I exist, therefore I am' - a part of infinity, along with a lot of other non-you 'stuff' - physical or otherwise. Either that or you go the solipsist route and I'm just a figment of your imagination replying to you.

The thing I've been pondering a lot lately is whether infinity, when defined as "the set of all sets, including the empty set" - has it been fully 'explored'? Can it never be fully explored? Is it somehow paradoxically both or is it fully explored and 'we' are intentionally deceiving ourselves to perceive otherwise but some of us are feeling like we're catching ourselves out?

I can understand intuition from a logic/reason perspective - i.e. your subconscious has created some sort of shortcut through expertise/repetition to answers not consciously thought through. It's the more superstitious cases where you override your 'intuited answer' with logic/reason only to find out retrospectively you should have 'gone with your gut' (or whatever) that are harder to reason out.

I don't know. Lately I've been feeling that we're trolling ourselves at unprecedented levels and I don't know whether to laugh, cry, join in or be silent. I've compromised by doing all of the above at various times. :confused:

I had a DMT trip that made me feel this way.. We are all there, everything is all there at the end of time..After Infinity has been had, everything is there, partying it up at the end of time, and we decided to come back -in- time and relive it over (maybe even differently!) - hence the paradox.. Because how can we ever reach infinity, and if we did how could it ever be different?


" On this bridge, Lorca warns: life is not a dream.
Beware, and beware, and beware!

... And so many think because then happened, now isn’t.

But didn’t I mention, the on-going WOW is happening, right now!

We are all co-authors of this dancing exuberance, where even our inabilities are having a roast! We are the authors of ourselves, co-authoring a gigantic Dostoevsky novel starring clowns!

This entire thing we’re involved with called the world, is an opportunity to exhibit how exciting alienation can be.

Life is a matter of a miracle, that is collected over time by moments flabbergasted to be in each others’ presence.

The world is an exam, to see if we can rise into the direct experiences. Our eyesight is here as a test to see if we can see beyond it, matter is here as a test for our curiosity, doubt is here as an exam for our vitality.

Thomas Mann wrote that he would rather participate in life than write a hundred stories. Giacometti was once run down by a car, and he recalled falling in to a lucid faint, a sudden exhilaration, as he realized at last, something was happening to him.

An assumption develops that you can not understand life and live life simultaneously. I do not agree entirely, which is to say I do not exactly disagree. I would say, that life understood is life lived. But the paradoxes bug me. And I can learn to love, and make love to the paradoxes that bug me. And on really romantic evenings of Self, I go salsa dancing with my confusion.

Before you drift off, don’t forget, which is to say remember. Because remembering is so much more a psychotic activity than forgetting. Lorca, in that same poem, said that the iguana will bite those who do not dream. And, as one realizes, that one is a dream-figure in another person’s dream: that is self-awareness!" - Timothy “Speed” Levitch from Waking Life

i like to compare it to being more "animal-like".

going back to a state of mind where there is no before or after...where decisions are 'instinctive'.

your instincts are intuitions.

i had a zen book that compared the mind state of zen to playing sports.

while you're playing, you're not concerned with anything except your next movement.

things become instinctive, you play off your intuition, and once you end your shift or whatever, you're back to a normal state of mind.

i think it's fair to say that going back to a state of pure intuition would be similar to that state of mind while playing a sport, it is more animal like.
