IN HARMONY WITH ONE REAL ORDER OF INTELLIGENCE

This whole universe is in communion with one deep order of intelligence. This deep intelligence immerses everything on the earth.

This whole universe is in communion with one deep order of intelligence. This deep intelligence immerses everything on the earth. This deep intelligence is the code that seeps soil, plants, species, animals, humans and all. We don’t know from where do we come from and where do we go? We are born and we die in harmony with this order of intelligence.

Every blade of grass, every sand of grain, everything, every sub-atomic particle is in harmony with deep intelligence. Without this intelligence, things may not conduct the way things do. Things communicate in harmony with that order which is pure intelligence. A bird travels thousands of miles without the use of any GPS but reaches the point where it landed last year. Sub-atomic particles steer the path that they follow in harmony with that intelligence. The human body is led by that one deep intelligence that leads the planets and stars that leads water and the air.

Life grew on earth in harmony with that one deep order of intelligence and for millions of years, we grew on the earth as humans. Humans added a new dimension to this intelligence. Humans grew a new quality, the human mind. A complex mechanism developed in billions of years. Humans started to think. Thinking was thinking and the opposite of doing. So in thinking, humans thought of doing but did not do what they thought of doing. Thinking, because it was not doing, grew a psychological mind. What humans thought of doing but did not do, to balance that out psychologically, the mind evolved new reverse engineering. What humans thought of doing but did not do, the mind reversed it into dreams and in dreams, the mind did all that he thought of doing because the mind can only think and the process of psychological reverse engineering filled that void of doing.

Humans think that they know. You also think that you know. But do you know anything? Do you know the mystery of life and death? University professors, scholars have papers published and books written but remain more ignorant than common people because they only think. In thinking they do. They only do the thinking. Thinking complements doing. A false intelligence grows in them. They gather information without being the knower of information. Knowledge is the opposite of knowing. Knowledge means that you observe knowledge not being there but being outside of the doer. Like a farmer is digging a trench and he is pushing forward the shovel to dig and you are watching him. You being the watcher of that digging is not the digger. But knowledge is that you assumed that you dug without digging it. These are two opposite things.

In a disguise of knowing, knowledge circulates. Therefore, the world is full of religious and knowledgeable people and knowledge but humanity deteriorates into prejudices and wars. It seems there is something amiss. Man has not become intelligent. Man has to become intelligent enough to know that knowledge of someone cannot be your knowing because the experience of someone cannot become your experience merely by reading or hearing. Your experience will become your experience when you experience.

Knowledge creates hypnosis of intelligence. Knowledge disguises as intelligence. Knowledge hypnotises you. Knowledge stimulates the intellect. Buddha’s experience of awakening may entice you but you become a Buddhist which means a believer in Buddha’s experience without experiencing it. But Buddha has said not to settle for anything lesser than Buddha. Buddha never asked us to be Buddhists.

To become intelligent man has to understand and know the sutra of that deep intelligence that whelms us from all directions of which we are the parts that which flows in us.

Intelligence is the opposite of ignorance. Knowing is possible through opposites. If there is ignorance there is intelligence. In contrast, you understand the reality. The contrast of darkness brings to you knowledge of light. Hell lends you knowledge of heaven. The world brings to you knowledge of transcendence that means to go beyond the boundaries of this world.

Intelligence is to question one’s existence first. To look at the existence skeptically, Buddha did that. To disbelieve in your beliefs, you believe in mind, ego and intellect. But to be, you have to begin doubtfully. Be doubtful to know. That’s the beginning. Begin to doubt you, God, Religions.

Man wants to know. To exist, man wants to know. His whole life is spent in knowing something. A lifetime of thinking that goes into what is there inside him. The gap between knowledge and knowing is a real gap. Knowing this gap is intelligence.

All senses grew for knowing. You keep a sweet on your tongue. You instantly know that it is sweet. Not the word sweet but the moment your tongue comes in contact with sweet you know. As per scientists, types of sensor cells that sense sweetness sense it and forward information into the brain where it is processed in the hippocampus and one gets to know it tastes sweet or sour. Science cannot go beyond the definition. Science can only catch the periphery. Science does not know the centre, the truth.

Dogs can sniff something afar. Bats can make visuals out of sonar sounds. Like a man can differentiate thousands of variants of sweet. Senses like vision, hearing, touch, smell, taste grew because of our innate desire to know.

Innate desire to know is innate intelligence clouded by our intellect. When a man could understand what he intends to know in that knowing there would be perfect understanding and the gap between knowledge and knower ends. A lifetime of knowledge does not make one understand. But a moment of knowing makes one understand everything.

Socrates has said knowledge is a virtue which means the knowledge if understood rightly becomes intelligence. Knowing is intelligence. Knowledge gives you intellect. Knowing is intelligence. There is a difference between intelligence and intellect. Intellect is a shadow of intelligence. Intellect is the ego, intellect is the disease, when intellect drops intelligence flowers.

One who sees is one who is experiencing the experience. Who is the experiencer? Knowledge is like Artificial Intelligence (AI). AI can replace human labour, human skills, human comprehension but AI cannot replace human intelligence. AI is intelligent copy invented by the intellect but it cannot replace human intelligence that is in harmony with that one order of intelligence.

In reality, to know That-Which-Is is intelligence. To be That-Which-Is is intelligence. Buddha questioned and reached the point when he could not question anymore. Then he surrendered. Real intelligence is to surrender. When you meet your own reality you understand That-Which-Is and you yourself surrender without any doubt of question. Intelligence is to meet the real Order that is embedded within you.
