Intelligence, and otherwise...

Why do most people "trust" their supposed experience over their presumed intelligence? Is it because they, somehow, know that in relation to their supposed experience, they have almost no intelligence?



If those people somehow acquired (through some kind of effort, for it doesn't happen mechanically) Intelliigence - and not the kind of ordinary intelligence that allows you to open bank accounts, purchase used cars, and keep your pets fed - the kind, with a capital I (and spelled with three i's), that when seen in relation to their supposed experience, would literally dwarf it, they would (somehow; mysteriously at first and then with full comprehension later) Trust their Intelliigence, not only to correctly evaluate all external events and occurrences, but internal ones as well.



In that way, all questions that ordinarily mechanically arise due to mis-understanding, and mis-apprehension, and mis-take - such as judgement, anger, depression, confusion, criticism, and all other forms of dis-satisfaction - would, not only no longer arise to the surface (and become, as they do now, an influence - sometimes negatively - upon their consciousness), but would sit there, like the good little boys and girls (pets, your errant dogs of desire) they actually are, held "in check" by... that... third I.



Dig it or don't.
