Otoharo!
Aranaya, We considered all of what you are asking in our reiki group with Xaris persent. Intellegence comes from the brain activity. Knowing, wisdom, beingness, mind, do not. (We conceeded that knowledge is the English word that refers to intellect, Where as knowing as we define this term comes from mind, like wisdom. To help ourselves "get" this, we would place our hands on our heart center area when considering wisdom, beingness, knowing, etc. I wonder if other languages have vocabulary for these spiritual distinctions? Obviously, English does not so we have to define our own terms as best we can.
Lazaris says mind is in every cell of the body. So we are not dependent upon the brain to that extent. However, Lazaris chides us for making light of our brain. As he says, we have developed a magnificent brain and ought to treasure it. (I assume he is comparing us to humans on other planets.
Our group felt mind also in the "atmosphere", meaning to us that we connected mind to whatever, and whereever God is. Being is not in the brain but in our center which is likely the center behind the body, in the energy field. Anyone wanting more on this, will find it in the Conversations with God series no. 4, titled New Revelations.
I consider intent to be from being which is other than brain. If I placed it somewhere, it would be in the center of my being which I consider to be in my energy field, not in the body per se.
Mindfulness, is not in the intellegence, but in this same center, or else contained in the mind found in all cells of the body.
As to your question on the difference between ego-intellegence, or something else, in relation to directing energy, I immediately feel. Apparently, I driect energy through feeling rather than intellect. It seems like I feel where I want the energy to be and it goes there.
Mind is already connected with mind that is (part of or linked to in someway,) God. We are all one. We are all one with God. Mind seems a part of that oneness, to me. We live in a world in which everything is actual. In this actual world we seem to be separate. But, oneness exists. Mind seems to me to be that connection.
We are wise. Reiki is energy. A very (I can't find the word I seek) finely turned energy with so far as we are concerned, unlimited power.
Your question on beingness! I have the opportunity to observe a person who be reiki. Reiki is energy, We are energy in essence.
Lazaris has a really good illustration of this. (I do not know how to draw on the compurter) Draw for yourself a large circle. Fill it up with dots. Put a band of something like continuous e's outside this circle rim and also inside the circle rim. The original circle you drew represents you, your higher Self. The band of e's or squibbles outside the rim is what God sees you through and you see God through. It is the soul. God sees you through your soul, and you see God through your soul. Likewise, You see your higher self through this inside band and your higher self sees you through this inside band. Now focus on one dot. That dot is you in this lifetime. All the other dots are you in other lifetimes. Around this dot that is you, put some squibbles. This represents your unconcious. So you see all of everything through this. So your unconcious colors all of your life.
How can we BE reiki. First we must learn to be. Or to be concious of what it is to be. After this, we bridge the gap from being to also being reiki. Out essence is in the nature of energy, reiki is energy, so we can shift so as to be reiki.
We learned being from a rock. I have given this in the past. Find a rock that your fist feels good holding. A nice river rock is good. Rocks are in the first dimansion as I comprehend this. Rocks only be. So rocks can teach beingness. You can not comprehend this until you experience it. Hold your rock. Hold it while meditating and doing other things when one hand can be free. (It took me three weeks before I could learn.) I am not a good example.
Lazaris taught process as having seven parts. This he draws as a wide U. He put points on it at each end, and at the center. That makes three points. Then he positioned two points on either side making seven points. At the left end, at the beginning is rock, the next point is plant life, the next point is animal life, the bottom is human, and each of the right side points are the changing of human into out spirit selves. I have forgotton the labels for these steps. (I dimly recall these as conscious, sub conscious, unconscious, and superconcious.)
In my comprehension, intellegence is what I developed in college. Reading material. Head stuff. I have so much of this intellegence it has been almost impossible for me to shift into being. Xaris quit working with me some years ago because I could not get out of my head. Now, there are times when I can shift out. And does life feel good when out of the head. When stuck in the head, all thinking is intellectual. Almost all of life is intellectual.
Thanks for your questions. They have stimulated me to look at myself now as against the backdrop of then when I could not get out of my head for love nor money!
finality
