Guest guest Posted February 4, 2005 Report Share Posted February 4, 2005 How can we know what is true intelligence and what is not? Simple. Extremely simple. When you feel good, then isn't that real, profoundly true intelligence at work? I am not talking about feeling relatively good, but absolutely good.

It is as biologically implanted as the amoeba's affinity for light. It is a simple seek or avoid response...that life uses to enhance its own chances for physical survival. t.

The purpose of life is to feel good. Not the superficial good feeling we get from taking drugs or winning a million dollars on lottery, not that kind of shallow peace over a seed that is still burdened by unease deep down, but the true peace that goes into the depths of the unmanifested. /AL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
