Instinct Or Intuition?

Instinct is an automatic thing, which makes it an expression of programming. The logic barrier is the protective mechanism between your conscious mind and your subconscious. We build this as one of the first structures of our personality in this life. It is built by those around us and our interaction with them. It is handy as a survival mechanism, but hampers a more functional use of our subconscious mind.

Intuition is a more connected way of being. It is a description of awareness outside of the physical senses, most of which occurs within our subconscious.

I have found in my life that I have lived it far more by intuition than intention, and that when I allow my conscious mind…my thoughts, my intelligence, my “reasoning”…to override my intuitive mind it invariably ends in disaster or near disaster.

My objective in recent years has been to cultivate my intuitive mind. To use my extra-sensory perception with more intention. The amazing part is how much more smoothly things go the more I rely on intuition than reason.

This is on the receiving end. The input from the physical senses and the input from extra sensory perception.

There is a sending end as well. In the physical, this involves physical actions. Using my body to manipulate my surroundings and using my communication systems to influence others…speaking, writing, gesturing etc. These all occur on the physical plane, in the realm of consciousness.

The magic occurs when you cross over into the subconscious mind for some “sending”. Thoughts and intentions can be communicated to others in this realm, influencing them in their thoughts and actions. This was demonstrated in Star Wars with the famous scene “These are not the droids we are looking for” It was spoken in the movie for the audience. In reality, a “thought” of this nature works. Those with weak minds are most easily influenced in this manner without their overt cooperation. The higher level of connection is when the other person(s) are intentionally “listening” as well. This is full blown two way telepathy.

More magical still is when your thoughts and intentions from your subconscious mind directly influence the physical realm. This is where the real magic is.

Think of your mind like an iceberg. The part above the water line is your conscious mind. The part below is your subconscious.

Contemplate for a moment how much MORE you ARE when you take your subconscious mind into account. Learning how to cross your logic barrier is the key.
