CONSCIOUSNESS

According to Osho, the three levels of consciousness are instinct, intelligence, and intuition. In my, experience, they map to feelings, thought, and culmination.

Feelings or instincts relate to the more primitive animal side of operating. Physical needs, or basal feelings, like fear, lust, jealousy, anger, hunger and warmth, are driving motivations of instinctual behaviour. Pandering to them is not always a good long-term tack, but it may be a successful albeit short-term, increaser of comfort: a Dopamine releaser.

Intelligence stems from the brain, involving reasoning, cost analysis, investment, and on-going training.

Intuition is a less conscious process. It happens with little control. It is more of an automatic process aimed at greater good, or at least, outside of the realms of the psychopath.

Instinct --- innate fixed patterns of behaviour - subjective.

Intellect --- everything is hyper-conscious and calculated - objective.

Intuition --- The return to subjectivity.

The intuitive person has experimented with the intellectual approach so much, that through pathways of varying success, a natural order evolved, leading to the objective become subjective, with a backing off of consciousness and its corresponding ego.

A musical contrast

The point

I think we need to move back to the subjective. Like Christ said, to "be like little children." Through numerous objective studies, the broadly subjective nebulous thread which relates widely, can be found: like the result of meditation, or Nirvana. That's why I wrote "Poetic Genesis". It's the one objective example I can offer you here, on your own root back to the subjective (see the File share). If it was easier, and more specific, you'd already be there.

Godspeed...
