How do we get knowledge and improve our wisdom?
We only use a few percent of our brains potential according to research, with some world leaders even less 😆 Science would say its total hogwash, as even if 50% of the brain is damaged it would impair human functions, so how can we only use a few percent!!
But doctors are wrong in this case, as the small % used does not refer to physical neurons or tissue, it refers to our human quality or potential to fully develop the consciousness and IQ through a greater awakening. Sure there are mind exercises to develop some parts of the brain and these have varying degrees of success. What we are talking about is overcoming limitations by connecting to a higher source of learning which is not physical and not restricted to the brain.
- Delta waves are super slow and occur during deep or controlled sleep. When we enter Samadhi states or leave our bodies with purpose we may also use this state.
- Theta is almost like a dream state except it’s quite easy to enter during full awareness. Spiritually, it’s a level which opens our extra senses (esp) and enhances our sensitivity. Although easy not people utilize the true potential of this state.
- Alpha is the most practical and useful level, children are always at this level, hence their ability to learn easily, to be like sponges for knowledge. It connects us to a vast storehouse of knowledge where we can get perfect solution to our answers. Listening to certain types of sounds/music (such has largo musical movements), relaxing in nature, meditating and light sleep all take us to Alpha. This state makes us feel calm, it’s a natural state to maintain inner peace throughout the day. Children have been taught to use this state during exams, when they do not know an answer they request it from the universe. If receptive, they get a response – hence it seems they are more intelligent; but it actual fact they are wiser for using all that creation has offered. The more creative we are, or the more we practice creativity – the greater our use of Alpha.
- During the day for most adults, we use beta waves; these keep us buzzing and somewhat hyper. However for our mission in life, they are useful in keeping us feeling separated.
The Buddhist state known as Bodhi refers to the intellect. When we reach this state our mind is open to wisdom, we have reached a certain degree of enlightenment. Scientists use knowledge to make decisions, mostly based on what they were taught. Masters make decisions from wisdom, nobody taught them, it came from a higher source.
So most methods will tell you to let go of the ego, the small self so you can be great. From a practical point of view, less attachment to knowledge will help.
How do we get wisdom ; use a method of our choice (such as meditation) to connect to a higher power.
