Thoughts

Two days ago I spoke of the apparent limitations of words and logical reasoning, pointing out that , by itself, the logical "scientific" reasoning we have become enamored with actually interferes with knowing what we call the spiritual part of life. I understand that we make use of approximately 10% of the brain for the linear, logical reasoning. I suspect that part of the remaining 90% can be used for other approaches to living that historically been vital for our survival as a species. That would include things like intuition, other forms of non-linear thinking and living according to the fact that we are totally dependent on this earth and its other inhabitants, ways of life that are frequently found in "primitive" cultures. It is certainly true that without logical reasoning these beliefs can lead to erroneous conclusions - but then reasoning by itself leads to problems as well.
