The intellect is the primary tool of intelligence. It can help you through this journey of acquiring knowledge, processing knowledge, and applying knowledge that we may become wise. Therefore, the important question is: Are you using the intellect in a powerful way in the pursuit of knowledge? When you want to achieve a certain goal, do you learn everything that you can about it? Do you discuss it to find out more? Do you learn more about the process? Do you learn more about the obstacles? Do you really make the effort to apply this knowledge and analyze the experiences? Do you? This is the question you need to ask yourself. I constantly ask myself these questions, and I don't give up until I am satisfied. When I say "satisfied" I mean when the practice begins to yield fruits.
Seek to understand your Self

The quest for knowledge should lead to transformation, to experience, to learning. And your intellect should be used in the most powerful way that it can be used. Of course, the more you learn about yourself, the more you understand your Universe. So the quest for Self-knowledge is the most important quest in the human journey.

So it seems as if the questions have already been posed in today's video clip:

"Are you using the intellect in a powerful way in the pursuit of knowledge?

When you want to achieve a certain goal, do you learn everything that you can about it?

Do you discuss it to find out more?

Do you learn more about the process?

Do you learn more about the obstacles?

Do you really make the effort to apply this knowledge and analyze the experiences?"

Come share your thoughts and insights as you contemplate todays message!
