Harry can read replies on FW and will respond accordingly cc'ing me just in case his post doesn't make it. arthur -----Original Message----- From: Harry Pollard [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, September 18, 2003 5:12 PM To: Cordell, Arthur: ECOM Subject: Re: "Spiritualität macht frei" ? (w as Re: NYT Article: Is Buddhism Good for Your Health?) Salvador. As always, it all depends on what you mean by intuition. My view is that intuition is the result of unconsciously bringing separate and perhaps disparate thoughts together to reach a conclusion. In a note that didn't reach FW I pointed out that linear thinking (a b c d e) is all we have.(in spite of Van Vogt's "Worlds of Null-A"). The next step would be network thinking, but I doubt it's possible - until it happens. Accomplished and practised thinkers may "linear think" so well that it looks more than it is - but I don't think we are out of linear mood yet.
