MASTERING INTUITION
Most people don’t know how to use their intuitive
faculty deliberately. They often confuse
impulses driven by subconscious wishes or fears with authentic
intuition. Just as with logic and
reasoning powers, if we don’t develop intuition and learn to use it
effectively, we live at a great disadvantage.
Intuition does not replace logic and reasoning --
it complements them. Where logic and reasoning tend to narrow our field of
focus, intuition expands it beyond our normal conscious mental operations.
Intuition is the backbone of creativity, discovery and great life
achievements. Without its development --
no matter how intelligent or talented we
may be -- we function only at a fraction of our potential; but how to
develop it?
Here’s a process that may help: First decide on
what you’d like to intuitively reach for and know; then close your eyes, quiet
your mind and sense a vast space within; next notice what significant seed
word, phrase or image spontaneously arises; then focus further on this seed
until a fully formed intuitive awareness comes.
Accessing your intuition can take only a few
seconds. But if you lose focus or don’t
focus deeply enough, you may need to keep trying and draw the process out. However, if nothing comes in a few minutes,
stop. You need not work at it more than
that. Once the intention has been set,
your mind will automatically keep working on it subconsciously. Then later, when you least expect it, the
knowledge you sought may suddenly appear.
Keep using and developing your intuitive sense
along with your logic and reasoning; together they allow you to be more
consciously in control of creating your best life.
Goodness and joy to all, Joseph.
