SUMMARY
This talk explores how the subconscious holds all attachments and opinions, and how the light of intelligence purifies it, leading to a life less troubled by objects and emotions. Barry Long describes intelligence not only as recognition and cognition of objects but reveals its highest form as an impersonal, holy state which animates life and is the foundation of all existence. The teaching moves through the evolution of matter and mind, using the analogy of the hand, to illuminate the individual's journey from rock-like subconscious to pure intelligence and the consciousness of life. This dialogue demonstrates the importance of negation: letting go of all beliefs, identifications, and opinions to access the holy, absent state where true intelligence and love are realised.
