The Intelligence That Is Life


If there is no controlling force in the cosmos, then why does there appear to be an order to things? And if there is an order to existence, how can natural disasters, such as occurred this past week in Asia, take place? Ishvara addresses these questions in a two-part message that I have transcribed and edited from talks he gave on December 28 and December 30, 2004. - TG.

Ishvara:

Some people advocate the idea that there is an "intelligent design" to evolution. If the proponents of this idea were embracing the true intelligence of The Consciousness, there might be some truth to the theory, but "intelligent design" is really just a name for "God." They are saying that "God" is behind everything that happens, which entails separation and control.

There is intelligence to existence. Intelligence is creating Life all the time, but not from separation or control.

On the other hand, science has not been able to acknowledge that there is an intelligence to existence. Physicists are seeking to reconcile quantum physics, where the very act of observing something changes what is observed, with physics at the macro level where such results have not yet been detected. Scientists are searching for the theory of everything, but until they acknowledge that Life is intelligence itself, they will not find their answer. Once they realize that even atoms are intelligent, that there is an intelligent flow in the energy fields, in the morphic fields of existence, that all of it is intelligence continually increasing upon itself, scientists will see things quite differently. Science, however, has been skeptical of an underlying force; science often has seen existence more as chaos and accident than as intelligence.

Scientists at times do seem to acknowledge that things are connected, such as in the theory of entanglement.* Perhaps it is a step towards realizing that such a connection is the process of intelligence, that the connection involves gaining awareness from past experiences.

As I look at Life from the Natural State, I see that there is nothing in me that is not of the intelligence that is The Consciousness. That is the connecting link. Knowing and embracing this intelligence brings about transcendence of all religions, all perspectives, all teachers, all masters, all practices, everything; it goes way beyond all of it.

Science is approaching it from a certain way, and spirituality is approaching it from another way, and somewhere in the middle there is a body of intelligence that embraces both, an all-inclusive connected Space. As the new species of humanity continues its evolution, it will be able to directly access that Space. Every component of the new species will live in the Natural State, and in the Natural State there is the supreme intelligence that is connected to everything. That intelligence underlies quantum physics and traditional physics; it underlies all of it. Without intelligence, the universe would cease to exist.

This intelligence has been misnamed and misunderstood as "God," but it is intelligence nevertheless. Molecules are intelligence, physical bodies are intelligence, the earth is intelligence. Intelligence is the supreme force that creates and motivates everything that exists; intelligence is constantly increasing, and thus recreating and adding to itself.

Science will eventually run into intelligence as the connecting link. Once science can get past the idea that everything is solid and capable of being objectively analyzed, it can begin to allow that all-that-exists is energy, intelligence. Because intelligence permeates everything, there is instant communication; that is why, when something happens to one so-called "entangled" particle, the same thing can happen to another particle on the other side of the universe.

At the quantum level--the level of particles--thought affects what is happening. The speed and location of a particle can be changed just by the observer's attempt to take a measurement. Thought affects the quantum. Thought is an aspect of intelligence. So intelligence affects existence at a quantum level, at the level of the foundation, the building blocks of Life. This effect continues as energy builds upon itself and forms larger particles and bodies, eventually to the point where one's thinking creates one's life.

Our thinking process is creating our life. At a quantum level, we are creating our disease, our death. It takes time for that creation to become manifest, but it begins at the quantum level, because the theory of everything is intelligence. Intelligence works at the quantum level, bringing about results that are dependent on the frequencies and conditions that are operating. At a quantum level, this creation happens very rapidly. However, because the quantum level is so small, it may be years before the effect is manifest at the visible level, but it eventually will become manifest.

We can begin to change the quality of our existence by changing our intelligence, our thought-awareness of experiences, and redirecting experience into more of a connected, open process that transcends beliefs and concepts.

People believe in "God" because they see the order of things, the intelligence that is at work, and they posit a directing force behind it. However, I see intelligence not as a directing force but as a learning force. The intelligence that is Life does not have a design or an agenda. It is an intelligence that is spiraling upward on itself; through each experience it is adding to its possibilities. It learns from its experience. Those things that don't work, drop out of the process; those things that do work are added to and continue to increase. There is no direction to the process; it is omni-directional, and can go in any direction at any moment. That is why psychics fail in their predictions: they are trying to put The Consciousness in a realm of predictability, and it is totally unpredictable.
