Message from Minerva 11/26/11 – The Alchemy of the Intellect and Wisdom

I am She who gives you those things which transform man into more than animal.  I give you intellect to reason, to discern, and to learn about the world around you – and within you.  Your intellect allows you to interact with each other and the circumstances in your life.  Your intellect combined with wisdom allows you to create your life and to act upon the world rather than just react.  I give you wisdom so you can use your intellect in ways that are in harmony and balance.  Wisdom tempers the raw intellect so you know what is right for you and what is in balance for all your relations.

One of my gifts of the intellect is science, but it is science that is balanced with wisdom.  Using only the intellect is one reason why your world is in trouble.  For so many scientist (and others), they do not use their wisdom to discern the long-term effects or the wider implications of their science and inventions.  They tend to only look at the short-range effect and what it does for humanity.  They don’t look at what it does to the planet or the rest of Her children: the plants, the animals, the fish, and the minerals.  The pollution problem of this world could have been avoided had science been tempered with wisdom.

Dear Ones, use your intellect and the bright minds you have been given.  The intellect serves a vital function in your spiritual growth and evolution.  Your intellect helps you to learn and understand new concepts and to perceive that which is beyond your immediate surroundings.  Your intellect allows you to take a concrete thought and expand it into a creative idea.  But, Dear Ones, do not let your intellect run wild and be the only thing you value.  Tame your intellect with wisdom.

All of you, Dear Ones, have wisdom within you.  Your soul is continually connected to Spirit and is guided by Source.  This connection gives you the spiritual, long-range perspective that the intellect alone lacks.  This wisdom of Spirit shows you how to use and apply in balance and harmony that which your intellect has learned and reasoned.  Wisdom looks at the knowledge of the intellect and balances it with the creative arts of living to enhance all of life. 

Wisdom is the discernment of whether and how knowledge should be applied.  Just because we can create a nuclear bomb doesn’t mean we should or it’s the right thing to do.  Intellect alone would make them just because it can and to see what happens when you do.  Wisdom uses discernment and Spiritual connection to determine how it would affect the world and ALL of its inhabitants on a long-term basis.  If the idea or new knowledge would cause harm and suffering, then wisdom would conclude the knowledge should not be used in that way.  Wisdom would guide the intellect into looking further into the new knowledge or technique to find if it can be used for good, in ways that do not harm.

The scientist used only their intellect concerning nuclear science and theory.  They stopped before they used their wisdom and only found the ways to use nuclear power that were good, but didn’t go to the next step – how to use it without harm.  Dear Ones, there are ways to harness vast amounts of energy that is in balance and harmony with ALL and does not cause harm in any way.  Applying wisdom to the intellect will provide the answer.  Science must return to the old ways of alchemy – when the intellect was used in conjunction with Spiritual wisdom.  Whole new areas of science and types of energy will open up when this happens.  Dear Ones, this is my promise to you, the world WILL change when this is done, for the better.  Call on me and I will guide you in the alchemy of intellect and wisdom.  I will show you how to blend the intellect of reason with the wisdom of Spirit to create and discover new ideas, new concepts, and new ways to live and to be that are in balance and harmony and create synergy.

Dear Ones, in your search for knowledge, do not forget your inner wisdom.  There comes a time when you must put the books down and stop gathering at the feet of teachers and look within to your own wisdom.  You must use your discernment to determine when you have learned all you can from outside sources and now must apply the knowledge you have gained in your life.  As you do, you will gain wisdom on that subject and open up the wells of wisdom within you.

Even more important, my Dear Ones, stop doubting and de-valuing your own inner wisdom and knowledge.  What you have to offer the world doesn’t always – and for many of you does not – come from following the path of others.  You who are Light Bearers are bringing forth new paths, new ways, and are trail blazers for others to follow.  You are traveling paths where you are first.  But, my Dear Ones, you HAVE the knowledge and wisdom within you to blaze these trails.  You came with it.  You do not need to learn it from someone else.  Dear Ones, put aside the need you feel that you must have certificates from someone else to “prove” your capability and competence.  It is your doing, your inner wisdom, that makes you competent, not the certificate.  Learn what you need from others, and then look inside to your inner wisdom and knowledge to leap forward and blaze a new trail.  There are many Light Bearers who are coming into awareness of who they are.  They are the ones who are holding the torch for others to follow a new path, to cross a different bridge.  They are NOT what you call Lightworkers, although they usually are.   Most Light Bearers are Lightworkers, but not all Lightworkers are Light Bearers.  A Lightworker works with the “light” – the energy of Spirit to assist others in healing or their growth.  Light Bearers hold the energy of Spirit to guide others on their path and to show a new path, and most importantly to open a new path for others to follow.  Light Bearers, call on me and I will help you open and access your inner wisdom to blaze the path you are here to open for your sisters and brothers.  You are NOT alone.

Dear Ones, use your intellect tempered by your wisdom to benefit all around you and bring balance and harmony to your life.

Blessings to you, Dear Ones, there is great love here for you.
