If you've got this belief, strong belief that it's impossible or even a strong belief that maybe it's possible but you can't do it, then as soon as things happen, your intellect will jump in with that belief and it's gone. So yeah, there's lots of things. Now, here's another thing that is a problem.

And that is that people who haven't trained themselves constantly have stuff going through their mind. I mean, if you look at an EEG, you'll see it's all over the place. If you look at those color pictures you get out of the computer, you see the colors are doing this and they're changing. These are thoughts and things constantly going through your mind.

Well, if you're just open to information coming and your mind has got all this background noise in it, it's hard to pick the signal out of the noise. So that's why people say, well, first step is learn to meditate. Because that's an exercise where you learn to quiet your mind, get rid of the noise. So a typical person has a pretty noisy mind, and that's a problem.

But that just takes some discipline to get rid of the noisy mind. So these are some of the things that inhibit it from happening in kind of the average Westerner. They get out of balance, too much intellect. They either want to do it or they're convinced it's impossible. Both of those will shut it off.

It's like the intellect is up on the edge of its chair looking, watching, ready. I want to talk to my dead uncle Fred. Okay, where is he? It's the intellect's in charge now. It's your intellect that's looking to try to find. You're not just relaxed letting that intuitive channel open up and receive. So when you define consciousness, what is the intellect?

Well, it's a way of processing information. And basically it's using logic as the process. That's the intellect. I've had these experiences and here's what they've done. And that means that if I have another one like that, it will probably be a similar outcome. All of that is using inductive mostly but also deductive logic where there's enough information. That's the intellectual side.

And how is that interfering with the intuitive? It's blocking the intuitive. It is – You can say it's bullying the intuitive side. You've got these two sides. One's strong, one's weak. You say, I want to talk to my dead uncle Fred. Intellect jumps over and says, all right, I'm on it. Where is he? Two decides that are not engaged. The intellect is in charge running the program.
