*Ad maronis mausoleum Ductus, fudit super eum Piae rorem lacrymae. Quem te, intuit, reddidissem, Si te vivum invenissem Poetarum maxime! Having thus spoken, old Hilary wished me the peace of a holy night and went away with Brother Jacinth. I resumed the delightful study of my poet.
"You want us to intuit something." "Right." I wondered if Sal could read Atmananda's mind. "Some of you think that you can read my mind," Atmananda said, peering at Sal. "But you can read only those thoughts that I make available to you." Sal had intuited that we had to intuit something but we still did not know what it was. "Is it about the past?" asked Anne.
Although the eye is the organ of perception par excellence, our other senses are also avenues by which we intuit and recognize objects. Thus touch, especially when it is finely developed as it is in the blind, gives an immediate knowledge of objects a more immediate knowledge, indeed, of their fundamental properties than sight.
"When you intuit The Truth you get an answer, not a question," Atmananda stated. "It's about the future," stated Dana. "Right." "You want us to look into the future," she continued. He nodded. "I see you traveling around the world giving lectures," she predicted. "Many seekers will become disciples as a result of your talks," offered Tom. "Guru will be happy with us," suggested Anne.
To intuit another's feeling is clearly to represent to ourselves a certain kind of internal experience previously known, in its elements at least, by introspection, while these represented experiences are distinctly referred to another personality. And now we see what constitutes the object of insight.
Similarly nothing that is intuited in time is a thing in itself, so that we intuit ourselves only as we appear to ourselves, and not as we are.
The sight of the sublime, that is, awakens the Idea of the unconditioned, of the infinite. This Idea can never be adequately presented by an intuition, but can be aroused only by the inadequacy of all that is sensuous to present it; the infinite is presented through the impossibility of presenting it. We cannot intuit the infinite, but we can think it.
The former is able to intuit only, the latter only to think; knowledge can arise only as the result of their union. Intuitions depend on affections, concepts on functions, that is, on unifying acts of the understanding.
The souls of Plato and Aristotle should become one so that the one should know the secret thoughts of the other. If the soul gets its ideas through divine illumination from the Active Intellect, how is it that philosophers do not intuit their ideas at once like God and the Active Intellect, and how is it they forget? Then as to their ideas about immortality.
He could only hope to solve this problem if he conceived natural objects in the highest of which, man, he makes conscious spirit break forth or nature intuit itself as themselves the products of an original subject, of a creative ground striving toward consciousness. For him also doing is more original than being.
