When Ra says intuition not balanced with rationality keeps one from polarizing, they mean that learning is being stifled. Experience is required in order to make use of any information presented from the intuition. When that experience is lacking the intuition has no guide to either inform or to express what is being perceived. So the vague notion, as creative as it may be, is not and can not be consciously communicating within a learning/teaching modality. Throwing around vague notions, just because of the transcendent notions evoked, may inspire due to novel arrangement of possibilities but the sheer lack of will and effort involved means there is no actual sharing of experience. In other words, it's like art. That sharing of actual, rather than imagined, experience is an immeasurably more useful aid in polarization.(03-18-2014, 12:58 PM)zenmaster Wrote: The beginning of something is the go-to framing of the new-age meme, because any new would-be paradigm of existence can be perpetually described as incipient or on the horizon. The intuition uses "signs". The hyper-intuition looks for particular signs which suggest things to reinforce desired confirmation bias. This meme is not effective at actually bringing about change due to lack of grounding in evaluated experience.
If I am reading your statement as you intended, it seems that you make two assertions:
1. Premonition of something to come, in this case a Big Something, is unreliable because:
a) it relies heavily on intuition
b) being vague and murky, the information gained by the intuition is used to confirm pre-existing biases.
2. Because of this projection of pre-existing bias into the future, (rather than a real determination of actual future, or actual potential), the possibility of and potential for actual change in the desired/hoped for direction is nullified.
Is this right?
