Forgotten wisdom

"The intuitive mind is a sacred gift and the rational mind is a faithful servant

We have created a society that honors the servant and has forgotten the gift"

Albert Einstein

Another way of looking at it is:

The rational mind thinks it is the boss and that it knows everything

Unfortunaltey this is not true and is leading us into all kinds of trouble

Reductionism is based on logic, which relies on mind

Mind can only compute or construct logically

The inuitive mind can go beyond this in a way that the rational mind cannot
.
Thinking beyond the mind is not possible for many older scientists
.
Now a new generation are here who understand this
.
Hence finally some scientists are going in this direction
.
Where it is acknowledged that the experimenter affects the outcome
.
More than that he is part of the outcome
.
Bye bye reductionism
.
Why?
.
Because once we acknowledge this we are saying we all part of everything
.
There is no separation
.
No them and us
.
Just a oneness
.
Just as the ancients used to say
.
For sure the reductionist rearguard are fighting valiantly to deny the obvious
.
We have the fortune or misfortune to watch this changing of the guard
.
It seems so long ago that Einstein pointed this out
.
Changing minds and consciousness is a slow business
.
It will take a while yet and lead us into more dead ends before critical mass is achieved
.
So many stubborn people unable or unwilling to let go of their perceptions
.
Or worse those with vested interests to protect
.
Even at the expense of humanity's needs
.
Yes it will take a while
.
Do we have the time?
.
Who knows?
