Genius Is Not A Person But A Universal ForceDQmYjo6V1VsKiEp5aBLqcsYZJwo4xsEtJwJC97eGDjbU2QS_1680x8400.jpg
The cosmic webbing of innumerable lights,
Emanating their glorious intellect
To those receptive vessels
Which gaze upon their
Otherworldly light
In aspiration
Divine
With regards to the areas of creativity, intelligence, and genius, the popular view could not be more hopelessly mistaken. These abilities are not special, exclusive characteristics of the few, but innate to all entities, both animate and "in-animate" within the cosmos. Rather than spend our energy to dismantle the absurd and offensive idea that humanity is divided into the brilliant and the stupid, the peon and the hero: let us propose an alternative perspective. Let us explore the possibility that Genius is a universal force of the Cosmos that is everywhere present, and constantly seeking conducive outlets for its transmission.

Genius is Everywhere PresentDQmRc4Vz1CFzHtwuccoEdodEzdaRUMwxKDjmzCWNaU14gJs_1680x8400.jpg
Genius is when supposedly separate aspects of life are seen to be integral to each other. It is the grasp of interconnectedness at deep levels, and the dilution of this great truth to the least degree possible. Everywhere nature is conspiring; Everywhere there is cosmic co-operation that baffles linear comprehension. Everything is entangled. Removing variables from the equation is for the comfort & entertainment of the mind alone. As the addiction to "sophisticated" (needlessly complicated) thinking is epidemic, genius is said to be rare. However, it is brimming forth from every crevice of reality; it is singing through the many voices that attune themselves to its subtle harmonies. Those standing deaf and mute in its awe-inspiring presence, preferring at present the false light of ignorance, need only learn the procedure to unplug their ears and unfreeze their tongues to join with the celestial host.

Genius Is Constantly Seeking Expression

The teacher is ready,
Yet the student does not appear.
The meal is laid out on the table,
Yet the starving fool refuses to eat.
Reflect upon this saying & you will comprehend the whole tragicomedy of humanity's deadly over-attachment to its Shadow. There is the projection of inadequacy by the one who is frightened of their potential. This is the misguided denial of brilliance which results when one has a deep love for ignorance. It is like a man who chooses a wicked & abusive old crone to be his bride and slams the door in the face of the young, beautiful, kind-hearted woman who truly loves him. Or a woman who selects an ugly, cruel-hearted, and poor man for her mate over the charming & gentle suitor overflowing with wealth. Such is the choice of much of humanity, who then declare that only the select few are capable of genius!DQma1CwR59drb7oHi41qC9kXAqMkNJYb1PGd3cqS9zbBGFb_1680x8400.jpg
Genius is not a trickle, but a thunderous waterfall of intelligence available to those who will overcome the fear of their magnificence. Indeed, every being is a wonderful and unique fount of creativity, waiting to be activated!

I cried out & heard a voice,
I was silent & the universe sang to me.
Then I said thanksgiving to the beauty I beheld,
And danced in rapture to the rhythms of the stars.

Genius Is A Universal Force

In compassion and clarity, our perspective on genius shifts. It appears that what seemed its scarcity was instead the decision of the many to not receive it. The unlikely empowerment of this conclusion is that it is within the responsibility of each individual to claim their divine birthright of creativity, intelligence, and genius. How beautiful, that each possesses the degree of autonomy necessary to make this decision in the proper circumstance and timing! How wonderful are the endless variations of Genius' expression! How unique the beings that are its whirring transmitters!

Let us give thanks for the infinite mystery of the Cosmos, whose magnitude and scope we can only begin to imagine. Let us daily dwell in gratitude for the wonder and joy that the experience of life brings. May we allow the Genius of reality to flow through our veins!
