Intellect - do not listen to its reasoning, but rather to your intuition
Human beings place too much trust in their intellect. They take it as a counsellor, even though it has misled them countless times! Yes, because the intellect sees only the appearance of things. Listen to what a young girl’s intellect says to her: ‘Look at that boy. Not only does he have a good job, money, a fabulous car and expensive clothes, he is also charming, handsome, with the body of an athlete. You’d be a fool to pass up this opportunity – marry him!’ That is the reasoning of the intellect, based on appearances alone. And once married, the young girl may discover that her charming athlete, who seemed so pleasing in every way, is cruel, selfish and dishonest. She could have avoided so much grief and suffering if she had asked the advice of her heart, her intuition, instead of listening to the workings of her intellect. Of course, this is just an example. Consider all the times in your life when your intellectual calculations have brought you only disappointment and regret, and draw your own conclusions.*
