If a person is stuck in an intellectual based world they’ll be controlled by an intellectual based existence. This is a prison that you will only be released from by going beyond your intellectual thoughts into the realm of silence…
It’s impossible to be stuck in an intellectual existence that isn’t created by your own mind. What this means is regardless of what happens, it’s your minds intellectual thoughts that create your conditioning; this comes from within yourself. Lots of things happen throughout the day and each time there’s a choice to intellectualize it or not. Everyone has the ability within to cease causing their own conditioning, it just takes a certain amount of discipline for this to occur. What discipline does is it slows down the intellectualizing process that runs continuously. This slowing down is the beginning of truth being revealed. Without it the necessary silence that allows less intellectualizing will not happen.
If there’s continuous intellectualizing
and no silence all there will be is thought and this will not allow the ability to watch the moment unfold. If this isn’t seen your mind will never slow down and there won’t be any space created between your intellectual thoughts. Life will simply be intellectually based and the result of this will create your conditioning. When life slows down you’ll see how it’s your own mind that takes something that happens and puts it into a conditioned category. When you see this you can break free of the hold your mind has over you and you will be able to see that you’re not your intellectual thoughts; you’re beyond this thought based existence…
