Yes, I think intuition and insight are concepts we
have for the Dynamic awareness of the intellect.

Yes, static associations between the symbols are
loosened and then transformed into something new and
exciting.
I think the associations made between symbols
(concepts) is what holds the intellect together. If
you see the ultimate association of everything with
everything you see the associations are of your own
doing (small self) and become enlightened.

Everything can be 'art', 'art' is simply the DQ/SQ
complement in action.

Fair enough Paul.
Dynamic awareness of the intellect - i like that. I like that allot.
Have found your correspondence to be of high Quality, and hope it is rubbing
off on me. My thinking regarding culture and social patterns has been
clarified for a start. Thanks.
If i should present an essay to the forum covering those topics we have
looked at over the last few weeks, may i use some of the quotes you cite? I feel it
is only fair to credit your help. And if you would be so kind as to read it
before submission, i would be most grateful.
All the best,
squonk
