Tangled in Intellect

Siddhananda: Let’s see what’s next. (pausing with closed eyes).. OK, they’re saying they're tangled up. How to untangle [they’re wondering], why they’re so tangled?

G: Right.

Siddhananda: ..in intellect, in intellectual understandings.

G: Right, right, yep. Like the donkey bearing books (Laughing).

Siddhananda: Right (nodding).

G: Big burden.. doesn’t get a lot out of it. (Clearing throat) Yeah, intellectual knowledge only goes so far. So I would say for that one to start with the Om-That-I-Am and the I-Am-That-I-AM, and just sit in quietude and begin to observe and open the mind and let go of all the belief systems... and I would say for that one they can also have the COS, and that will help to open kundalini so they start to really have all those belief systems that they’ve gained challenged... to see what they are and what they’re not. (smiling)

Siddhananda: Did you say they could have COS?

G: Yeah, they can have the COS, because they need to... the kundalini needs to awaken and they need to go through the process and the layers of consciousness and see what all of those belief systems are that they’ve gathered, [what they] are and are not.

Siddhananda: Yes, Ok great. So we’ll put them over there.
