Hi Justin

When does knowing exceed our sensing,our perception,this is pretentious unless you have an explaination.It reminds me of a quote,to the effect,"I believe that I might understand",which I thought pretentious as well.Are you talking about intution--------no,your not are you.If there is a rational explaination I am all ears.

Re: Walter Russell Quotes

Knowing and sensing are different things. Man is deceived by the illusion of our senses rather than the knowing of our spirit. Does that make better sense? We see, hear, taste, touch and smell and we are often limited by our senses, just as science is limited by the 5 senses.

Russell described it all in great detail that is sometimes hard to understand if you haven't the scientific knowledge that he had. Once you start reading Russell, you'll get a better idea of what he meant. I do recommend reading his works.

Re: Walter Russell Quotes

Justin,

Yes,I quite agree,the senses are not only enabling but also limiting.Your right again I do not understand the essence of your statement,and the only way it seems for me to understand is to do the said reading.Could you pinpoint this proposition for me?

Thumbs up Re: Walter Russell Quotes

One of my all-time Walter Russell quotes is contained within my signature.

Lacking God's Fulcrum, this discussion (and all others on this site), would be an Impossibility....
