MANY TIMES I HAVE GOT THE QUESTION ABOUT , MA'AM what is the meaning of MEDICAL INTUITIVE? on your Visiting card!
I understand the scepticism between Intuition and Medical Accuracy.
Well I know; thus to clear some understanding I referred to my favorite SIR ALBERT EINSTEIN, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Albert_Einstein
and the next thing I hear around is some new thing around MBA- Mid Brain Activity,where they are making some blindfolded reading and object assumptions, well going by the "Occam's Razor"
here's what is Intuition and what is Knowledge!
Albert Einstein about
creativity and intuition
Albert Einstein,
Strictly Scientist or Simply Intelligent Intuitive?
"Imagination is
more important than knowledge." Is one quote that gives you some insight
into
the mind of Albert
Einstein.
A few quotes by
Einstein enlighten us on his belief in intuition and creativity as an aid to
scientific discovery:
"Reality is
merely an illusion, albeit a very persistent one."
"We can't solve
problems by using the same kind of thinking we used when we created them."
"Common sense is
the collection of prejudices acquired by age eighteen."
"The most
beautiful thing we can experience is the mysterious. It is the source of all
true art and
all science. He to
whom this emotion is a stranger, who can no longer pause to wonder and stand
rapt in awe, is as
good as dead: his eyes are closed."
Einstein used
visualization techniques to arrive at some of his theories, including that of
relativity. On that
occasion, he sat and visualized what the world would look like if you rode on a
beam of light through
the universe. He often used visualization techniques as his preferred
method of discovery.
Einstein knew that
his methods of deduction with the use of images was not acceptable and
chose initially to
hide the facts. An important quote that shows you of Einstein's use of
nontraditional
methods of discovery
is as follows:
"The secret to
creativity is knowing how to hide your sources."
He knew that anything
was possible and felt that there was no world you couldn't conquer with
the right techniques.
When speaking on attaining information from a colleague he noted: "Now
he has departed from
this strange world a little ahead of me. That means nothing. People like us,
who believe in
physics, know that the distinction between past, present, and future is only a
stubbornly persistent
illusion."
Einstein was a genius
in that he used more parts of his brain than those simply available for
rational thinking. He
shunned traditional methods and often commented on those that uselessly
clung to it. In
giving advice for learning, he suggested opening the universe of the mind.
Einstein had problems
with traditional learning methods, which drove him to the use of his
creative side of the
brain. Perhaps this is what made him a great scientist. He looked at things
through different
eyes to find the hidden solutions to problems.
Was Einstein smarter
than the average person is? He might not have been brighter when he was
in school. Unlike the
popular belief that IQ is static, it's proven quite mobile. People born with
lower IQs can raise
them and those born with more capability can find their brainpower dropping
with lack of use.
Accessing all portions of the brain and using new areas is one way to increase
the IQ. Perhaps, one
of the greatest minds in history started out average but his quest into other
parts of the brain
increased his abilities.
A quote from Einstein
condenses all the potential that Einstein believed every individual shared
and why some people
never achieve their potential.
"A human being
is a part of a whole, called by us "universe", a part limited in time
and space. He
experiences himself,
his thoughts and feelings as something separated from the rest... a kind of
optical delusion of
his consciousness. This delusion is a kind of prison for us, restricting us to
our personal desires
and to affection for a few persons nearest to us. Our task must be to free
ourselves from this
prison by widening our circle of compassion to embrace all living creatures
and the whole of
nature in its beauty."
