Towards Something More Than Intellect

Would you like to know what resides beyond the deformity of our perceptions if there is anything? Just what lies beyond those wishful embellishments emptiness perhaps nothingness if such is this idea tempts like sugar many of the “intellectual” nothingness after the last heartbeat a candle blown and the flame simply gone. But it is an answer of the laziest sort a rejection of possibilities of endless natures placing a dot at the end of a sentence which could continue and bloom into the most wonderful stories? They like to say that imagination has nothing to do with truth (as if they knew all the mysteries of our minds) James Fowler – and others – have opinions of a more stimulating kind I say open up your heart for there is much more beyond of what we’ve created in churches and temples even greater Love and imagination can be just the right door but there is and there will be even more just Stand still and standing look and looking think and feel the voice that speaks through everything let it bring the freshness and vision of what there is to know and then in a brand new humbleness gently bow your head to all the powers which reside on the other side of the wall which divides Human intellect from wisdom
