    Smile Intuition and Illumination-light-mind,

    In the physical body there are certain most interesting reactions.These fall into
    two main groups;First,a stimulation to an intense activity,which has a definite
    effect upon the nervous system,and second,there is frequently the appearance
    of a light within the head,whichcan be seen even when the eyes are closed,or in the dark.Illumination is not only a psychological,but also a physiological fact.
    What is this mysterious thing we call the intuition?It might be interesting to note
    that the word is totally ignored in some books on psychology,the intuition is not
    recognized.I would define it as a direct apprehension of the truth,apart from the reasoning faculty or from any process of intellection.It is the emergence into
    the consciousness of some truth or beauty never before sensed.It does not
    emerge from the subconscious,or from the stored up memory,racial or individual,
    but drops into the mind directly from the super-conscious,or from the omnisient
    soul.It is immediately recognized as infallibly true and arouses No questioning.
    All sudden solutions of apparently insoluble or abstruse problems,and numbers of the revolutionizing inventions,come within this category.
    kind regards michael

    Mike,

    For this post I take that you are definatelly a phenomenologist. But up to what I had seen in your other philsophical posts, I thought your philsophy was more of an intermediate between existentialism and neo-idealism.

    Well, sometimes I do go an article in my enciclopedias, articles around 8,000 words long....

    Phenomenology is the metaphysical system based on the axiom that we must start our investigation of "what exists?" by intuitive observation of the universe, just as you depand in this thread.

    Existentialists are those who believe that humans exist in a special manner from all the others: we can have sbujective truths, which are principles.

    Neo-idealists are those who believe that the things exist as subjecs for the percievers.

    So I used to though that you were an existentialist and neo-idealists, which is: humans exist to other humans as subjective truths.

    But now I think you think: humans exist to other humans as subjective truths impplied by their intuition.

    This means, that what I am to you, is, and only is, what you first intuitivelly thought of me, according to your views. Am I to you what you first intuitivelly thought of me?

    Our ancients, thousands years ago, had found these 'philosophical-terminologies, e.g. sath-ciit-anand(truth/existence/being-awareness-bliss).these were/are one of the attributes ascribed to God/reality. You might also be aware of the views of the scientists about philosophy---the most revered subject, but for you people, who made it too textual. Prof. Hawking wrote in one of his book “In nineteenth and twentieth centuries, science became too technical and mathematical for the philosophers, or anyone else except a few specialists. Philosophers reduced the scope of their inquiries so much that Wittgenstein, the most famous philosopher of this century, said “The sole remaining task for philosophy is the analysis of language”. What a comedown from the great tradition of philosophy from Aristotle to Kant"
    Dear, phi. is not in the books, not even in the mind; nor it is a religion! it is the love for God. It makes the seeker realize God&merge in Him. But unfortunately, in the west, it has been made a subject of their curriculum.love&regards.ls.
