Logic involves inductive reasoning based upon experience, premises and rules. However, who is to say that the rules aren’t faulty, or that the experiences are enough, or that all the relevant premises have been discovered? At best, as experience and premises become richer over time, logic iterates toward some goal. This is not good if you are in a hurry! How many iterations of logic are needed before an appropriate level of truth is achieved? Hmmm, logic is illogical!
So what, if anything, works better than logic? To answer that let’s take a quick look at consciousness.
Lets divide consciousness into two pots. The first pot is everything that we have learned, and committed to memory, through our physical senses. This includes what we have learned through education, observation and experience. The second pot is everything that is available to us that is beyond our physical senses. Logic can be used with everything that is in the first pot. By the nature of logic, the second pot is off limits. Therefore, if anything works better that logic it must be available to us and in the second pot.
So, what is beyond our physical senses with the caveat that it must also be available to us? The answer lies in an elevation of our senses beyond their physical aspects.
Naturally, anything that you read here is first pot stuff so it doesn’t count. Sigh. However, there is a way for you to discover something that is better than logic. That method is meditation. It is possible, even easy, to elevate your senses beyond their physical bases in meditation. All that is necessary is to affirm the following: “In this meditation my senses will elevate and insight to my question will be presented to me from the highest source.” Then just be quiet and listen. The answer may come instantly in your meditation or perhaps later in a dream or even in the form of an omen.
The next really good questions would be: How do I know that the answer is accurate and comes from the highest source? How do I hear what is being said? What is an omen? Well, these are later topics. They have to do with trust and the release of preconceived ideas.
What do you think?
