How do we envision and get a handle on what our brains cannot even perceive, or think about... except in the abstract?
But what am I saying, right? Let us begin by clearly stating that "thinking" is a process which involves ones brain [and sometimes ones MIND as well, or at least its DM=SI ]. Thinking is a physical process that includes some electro-chemical aspects to it, but the entire process is confined to ones physical brain.
By contrast, ones intuition takes place ONLY when ones Attn Aspect of Apapsyche is fixed in ones Apapsyche. And to comprehend what I am talking about, the reader will have to discover a new concept that is a written account of an Esoteric process that hardly anyone knows about.

I wish to try and share a most peculiar thing about the concept of "intuition" that is not much known. Because the entire process of intuition takes place within the Esoteric dimension of ones Spirituality, and has absolutely nothing to do with "thinking", the intellectualism in America tends to completely ignore the concept of intuition. It is rarely spoken of, not taught, and those youth within whom it is naturally active are ridiculed, scorned and mocked until these youth deny their own Spiritual gift [that they have spent many lifetimes developing]. Such is the level of fear of the Esoteric dimensions of Man in America, and in much of the world today.
Surely each reader has at sometime intuited something? But wait a moment, how does intuition differ from simply remembering something one has momentarily forgotten that is stored within ones brain?
What is the difference between intuition and thinking?
Dr. Johnnson then says: "The Western psychologist may call this "reason combined with intuition". But it is simply the buddhi, the intellect, quickened by spirit to an unusual degree."
I quote Dr. Johnson, for two reasons. One is that I have found his writing to be pointedly correct, and secondly, he was an authority on Eastern mysticism, which explains much more of the Psychology of Man that modern mental health can even imagine. Intuition is the name for a different state of understanding that, as Dr. Johnson pointed out, is a part of ones "buddhi" [or intellect], but a part that is quite beyond mere intellect. So for clarification I separate the intellect from ones faculty of intuition. Additionally, I speak of the operation of the Apapsyche [Operational Energy of ones Soul], which I have not as yet found an example of in my research relative to mysticism. And since I believe intuition to be a faculty or operation of ones Apapsyche, it is useful to maintain it as separate from the intellect. It is also my experience that shows clearly that thinking and intuition are entirely separate activities.
Of course "separation" only exists arbitrarily, for in the reality of life, all operations of Man slide into one another and it would be difficult to perceive where one left off and another began. Difficult to perceive this difference, but this difference most definitely exists. And this difference must be maintained because to not maintain it makes one vulnerable to the DM=SI of ones MIND, and ones thinking being directed by the DM=SI of ones MIND.
The basic difference is that your intuition is an aspect of your "Apapsyche" and your thinking is a process of your brain. Remember what your Apapsyche is? If you need to be reminded, do so here. The most significant difference is perhaps too subtle for the brain to comprehend? That is.... when one is "thinking" one cannot intuit anything because the Attn Aspect of ones Apapsyche is fixed in the Left-Hemisphere of ones brain [and ones brain is physical and is unable to perceive any form of Spiritual Energy].
Although difficult for the reader to do... when dealing with any of my writing one must keep in mind that I speak of all three vibrational realms which make up the Whole Human Being by simply using terms or symbols that refer to one or another of these three realms... in the same sentence or paragraph. Sometimes it may be difficult for the reader to "think" about the MIND realm, for instance, since ones brain will never experience the MIND.
In the short sentence: The brain is not the MIND. I refer to two entirely different realms of Man. Are you following me in this? We in this nation have not been trained to realize that Man is composed of three entirely separate vibrational realities. Ones brain cannot see ones MIND, and ones MIND cannot perceive ones Spirituality. And it is not possible for the brain to experience the Apapsyche for example, because the brain will never experience any part of ones Spirituality. So how then does one "think" of the concept of "intuition" when ones brain will never experience it?
The answer of course is that we "think" about what the brain cannot actually experience in the "abstract". The term "abstract" refers to the way in which we use words as "symbols" to "stand for" phenomena we are unable to actually experience. Words like God, Soul, MIND, Esoteric and so forth. But there is a subtle problem in this. Very often our MIND wants us to "think" that we know something that we really do not know... and this little shell game is played on us by our MINDs all the time.
That is, many psychologists today "think" they know what the MIND is.... because their MINDs want them to think this. This is the easiest way their MINDs can cause them to not pursue any attempt to actually discover what the MIND is. I mean, why try to discover what you already "think" you know? In this way their MINDs keep them "secretly" in the dark regarding the fact they have no idea what the MIND is, and thus, they are not likely to discover that they have no idea that "Psychology" is actually a study of the Esoteric dimensions of Man. It is their MINDs feeding Delusional Thinking to the Left-Hemisphere of their brains that cause them to "think" that they know what "psychology" is. What facilitates this is the DM=SI of their MINDs, of which they are completely unaware.
Fortunately we have an alternative to having to actually "Know" something. We have the ability to "think abstractly". We can "think about" the MIND, or intuition by simply processing the names for these realities. And the brains of most people even tend to imagine that they "know" what these name mean. So because a person can spell the word MIND [M-I-N-D], the person's MIND encourages that person to "think" that he or she "knows" what this term means. My point is that one does not "think" that one does not "know" what the word MIND means! And this is what makes our communication about the Esoteric dimensions of Man so difficult.
Intuition brings to ones conscious awareness a bit of Knowledge that has been stored within ones Apapsyche, and this Knowledge is the result of having completed some line of Karma over many, many lifetimes... so this bit of Knowledge is always true. But this bit of Knowledge is easily destroyed by simply shifting ones Attn Aspect of Apapsyche from ones Apapsyche to ones brain. As soon as one begins to "think" about what one just intuited, ones intuition is gone. How come? Because your intuition is for you alone. You have earned it... but it is for you to use as part of your own enhancement and to increase your own Spiritual Evolution. Again, the West is little attuned to the "Purpose of Life". I speak of this here.
So, when you intuit some "bit" of Knowledge you know this in two ways. One is that what you have intuited is Knowledge and thus True, and the other is that if, out of habit, the Attn Aspect of your Apapsyche shifts into the Left-Hemisphere (L-H) of your brain, then you will instantly loose the Intuition as you begin "thinking about" it. You see, no part of your Intuition can be perceived by the L-H of your brain.
In addition to the above, your Intuition presents you with an entire concept, not just a linear string of thoughts.... where one thing leads to another, and to another, etc. An intuited "bit" comes in the form of an entire concept, all the parts of it are integral elements of a complete "whole". And should your L-H become the focus of your Attn Aspect [out of habit and due to fear that some element of your Intuition may expose what your MIND holds hidden within itself], the only part of your Intuition you will be able to think about are the conjunctions that are assumed to be present between the many elements of the "whole". In other words, nothing of value will be left of your Intuition.
Needless to say this is a bummer. It takes much practice and concentrated work to become proficient at keeping your Attn Aspect fixed in your Intuition. Need I add the obvious.... that proficient intuition requires one to remove a great many of the fears that ones MIND holds hidden within itself... because these will be used by ones MIND to prevent one from either using intuition at all, or will greatly hinder ones use of intuition.
Perhaps it is not necessary to mention this, but let me do so anyway... the primary reason most people shy away from intuition is that they are not "ready" to tap into the Knowledge that it provides. It is the role of ones MIND to prevent one from accessing "truths" higher than what ones Fate Karma demands one believe. It does this by threatening one [at a fully non-conscious level of course] with the exposure of some deeply repressed misperception it holds hidden within itself. This is the DM=SI of ones MIND doing its thing again. And again, this has to do with ones perch upon the Ladder of Life, ones Fate Karma for this life, and the role one is playing in this life.
And this now leaps into a great unknown that is unique with this web site and how it reflects my thirty plus years building an understanding of the Whole Human Being and explaining what the ancient Greeks meant by Psychology.
So scary to talk about the "Unknown" within Man. But since this is the only way we can discuss Intuition, you will just have to clinch your fists and leap with me into the great abyss..........
Intuition is or are "bits" of Knowledge from within ones own Apapsyche. What is Knowledge, is one question? Where does it come from is another question? And what is the purpose of this Knowledge, is yet another question that I'm about to explain.
To explain the phenomenon of intuition which is the end of a truly mystical and complicated process, I must explain the process itself. So I invite the reader to take a side trip and explore an overview of "The Purpose of Life" here. If the reader is interested in what I have written about the Purpose of Life, then consider ordering my book: Esochology and The Purpose of Life, being published by Publish America and due out winter of 09.
Within each of us is a mystical and marvelous phenomenon I refer to as Esotransmutation , and this involves ones Apapsyche, ones MIND, and it fulfills the Purpose of Life. That is, the purpose of life is for the Soul to thoroughly explore and experience the entire Creation to discover all that Neutral Spiritual Energy [the Energy of the Soul] can be. Esotransmutation is the Esoteric and mystical way in which the Creation achieves its goal within each human being. Isn't this phenomenal that I was allowed to discover this... even though I cannot convey the actual phenomenon so others can experience it, I can at least convey the concepts abstractly. The symbols used will allow some to awaken to "bits" of this phenomenon from within themselves. This "readiness" to awaken is the nature of the mystical Reality of Life.
The Law of Karma is based on this simple rule: As you sow, so shall you reap! In other words, every thought or action you have or take is registered within MINDLines within your MIND. Every action taken is etched upon a MINDLine as a "due bill", which means that at some future point you will have that same action taken against yourself. In this way one gets to take an action and receive it and thus, experience both... and this increases ones Knowledge and Empathetic Understanding relative to that specific emotional dynamic. Each Karma on that MINDLine represents a greater or lesser intensity of that emotion, and when one has completed the entire length of experience of that emotion, it is converted via Esotransmutation into Knowledge and Empathetic Understanding and this is stored within ones Apapsyche.
This is how ones MIND and Apapsyche combine to convert ones completion of Karma into Knowledge and Empathetic Understanding. This Knowledge is ones own hard earned experience that has over many lifetimes given one Truth relative to Life. This Truth is fed back to one at times when it is needed as intuition...[and Conscience and Discretion] if one is open to [and ready for] what is contained within ones Apapsyche....and if this does not interfere with ones Fate Karma for this life?
Imagine Life as being a step-ladder with many rungs leading to the top rung from which Souls leave Life and return Home. Of course the bottom rungs have to be much wider than the upper rungs because most people are perched upon these lower rungs. And how one rises up these rungs is by completing Karma, and this then increases ones Knowledge, and this Knowledge adds to ones Spiritual Evolution, which determines ones perch upon the rungs of the Ladder of Life. Every Soul that has committed to Life is perched somewhere upon these rungs. This analogy assumes two things that are often denied or ignored in the West: Karma and Reincarnation.
