The Discernment of Wisdom and Finding it in Emotion
“When the wise tell us to look within, they are directing us beyond intellectual analysis of personal thought, to a higher order of knowledge call wisdom.” — Sydney Banks
This is what I know…
I live in the feeling of my thinking in every moment. Conscious or not, my emotions show up as feelings in my body. That is how I know they are there.
Anxiety — I feel it in my body, fear — I feel it in my body, impatience — I feel it in my body.
“It is we human beings that use Thought to produce such things as our feelings, moods and our overall perceptions of life. “ — Sydney Banks
More often than not, I am not even aware of the thought. I notice the feeling first and I might not even have a name on it. I am running late, and I get a feeling in my body.
“All feelings derive and become alive, whether negative or positive, from the power of Thought.” — Sydney Banks
