At any rate:
The memory of our success is evidence of another Intuition
having been adequate; it is evidence that the Present really does come out of
the Future rather than the Past. Somehow I’d Intuited that this album would
work out in this way. Coupled with the Intuitions of Kresten and of Ro. As well
as what our bodies Did playing our instruments during our recording session. We
came out with a Fantastic artistic work, that it’s naive to presume that any
alternate arrangement could have really pulled off. For I think that in fact
the reason that we appreciate good art is because intuitively we imagine what
an alternate arrangement would have been like, and we Know it to be superior. But
only someone who has not gone into this with as much depth as we have would
condemn it to irrationalism, and that is all ways the case with superficiality.
The moment of Intuition should be my main focus, though, even if that means
that I am switching to a more extraverted mode of being, because what could be
more Divine – and of course we have to make room for that ultimately, as a
Conclusion of This – than contacting that stream of knowledge which we cannot
warrant Rationally at the time that it is produced. We have to acknowledge that
THAT is in fact where our hearts should lie, because there are dangerous things
in the Unconscious, and even Sinister things, the Unconscious, in its
Intricacy, is much more Informed than Consciousness, in its relative superficiality. And we know this
because, when we DO actually take back aspects of our Unconscious, they become
aspects of our Consciousness, which had at one point or another been a matter
of Common Sense, or we could not Describe them. That’s all ways the case with
Intuition: You cannot DESCRIBE it RATIONALLY because there is no NECESSITY to
do so except when imposed from outside. There is no internal, practical
necessity to do so, so our minds are not capable of it. Unless, say, we’ve
researched it a good deal, and then most critics would not bother to listen to
us. And yet we know! And we have to trust it. That the very fact that such an
experience that is an inkling which IS again, much like creative inspiration,
an act of Novelty, a moment of Novelty, a moment of Revelation, that such a
thing can occur and dazzle us, even though our consciousness is not able to
account for it, this is Evidence that the deeper store of Unconscious
information which we simply wouldn’t be able to handle in Waking Life is
speaking to us. And of course if we condemn that and you ask: Why not simply
handle it in Waking Life? Well, recognize that people who handle it are the
ones condemned by the system to be seen as schizophrenics, neurotics, things of
nature, because in fact their genius is that they’re able to formulate aspects
of Reality which other people ARE definitionally Unconscious Of. It is the
Intuition which is in fact the Survivalistic adaptation which allows us not to
have to do that. Because of course in every instance of Yin, there is a little
bit of Yang, and in every instance of Yang, there is a little bit of yin. Even
in the fairly Fascistic dogmas which condemn these intellectuals to be mentally
ill – these people who communicate verbally the textures of their innermost
minds – even this is to some degree warranted simply because it is IMPRACTICAL
for the Intuition to be rationally expressed; it is simply Unnecessary. This is
exactly why the Intuition must be trusted, even When it cannot be rationally
expressed, and the individual who COMPELS the Intuition to be justified, by
something outside of its self, WHILST condemning the “neurotic”, or the
psychotic or the schizophrenic, is putting the individual in a double-bind, and
to some degree participating in the worst kind of hypocrisy. Especially since,
like all people, this person owes a considerable debt to the Unconscious and
the Intuition as well, that only needs to be made again a conscious value.
