Wise, Inspired, and Intuitive People
My experience has been that there are some people who are different from birth. They seem to have wisdom, intuition, and inspiration beyond the normal bulk of humanity. Some observations:
- There are phrases such as “wise beyond their years” that ring true with everyone
- Old cultures relied on wise old people (e.g. oracles) to give advice
- The early Christians elected their bishops, so people would appoint (in theory) the wisest among them to lead the people
- These people have a good sense about our world, certain people, and the future. They don’t rely simply on statistics and data, but have a good feeling for things.
Our system now has many ways of manipulating people:
- Money gives you power, so if you’re a billionaire you can buy politicians, support propaganda efforts, and control land & companies. You buy power & influence directly.
- Thought leaders can attempt to manipulate people
- Parents can try to instill certain ideas in their children, so it’s propaganda from birth. Someone has to teach those children something, and they will have some idea in their head.
Problem with this System
This system is easily taken over and infiltrated by con artists, false prophets, warlords, elites, and all kinds of people who want to control you. Some thoughts & examples:
- People who have visions often use this as if God or The Universe were talking to them directly, as if their visions are more than just their own creations. I’ve never heard a first-hand account of a vision, it’s just stuff I’ve read about.
- This is so ripe for abuse, that there has to be concrete way of testing the person. Usually their leadership will have a positive benefit, so you can test it by following their advice and seeing what happens. If there is improvement, keep following them, otherwise cut them off.
- If a thought leader or opinion maker never gives concrete advice, they’re a con artist. They have to want to change your life, not just flood you with facts. These are just hustlers trying to get your attention and your money. They want to control you.
- The waters are muddied immediately by people claiming to be inspired, sensitive, wise, and intuitive. For example, today the “Highly Sensitive Person” movement and the entire con artist industry around Carl Jung & Theosophy has absolutely captured most people. Psychology is a complete scam and tons of people have been buying into it. The bulk of the population is being manipulated by these phonies.
- If a sensitive or inspired person speaks up, they’re often quickly dominated by abusive & aggressive types. Lawyers & those with existing power seek to crush wise & sensitive people at all steps.
- Inspired Christians bishops were replaced by lawyers & politicians in the 4th century. The original church was a group of outsiders, but by the 4th century they were replaced. The lawyers kept the shell of the church, while replacing all the meaningful parts. They attempted to create a unity in future centuries, where an initial unity had never existed in the so-called “early church.”
- Thought makers & opinion makers today are some of the most selfish, narcissistic, and cruel people. These are not wise, sensitive, and inspired people. They rely on statistics, rule of law, and psychological manipulation to keep their power.
What To Do
Live in the present. Dead inspired people are of no help today, inspiration and wise people need to be living and in charge now. Ignore history books or stories of wise people; they are dead, the circumstances today are new, so they can’t lead anyone. What matters is living people, not the dead.
Recognize and look for wise, inspired, and intuitive people. Anyone (without any limitation whatsoever) of any age can be inspired and intuitive and it’s good to recognize them from the youngest age and ideally help them to develop in an environment that’s good for them. This concept was popularized with Star Wars, where “force sensitive” people were known as children, but they needed training. Of course Star Wars is just entertainment, but it’s popular and people know what I’m talking about. People have always recognized that sensitivity isn’t enough, but age matters as well. Somewhere around age 40 seems to be the right spot for an intuitive leader having power.
How can you tell if some is worth listening to? Simple:
- Stop following anyone that is not wise & inspired. Don’t just be led by popularity & money. Too many people want to ride the wave of elites & warlords to get scraps from their table; don’t be that person, since then you will become one of them by following them too closely.
- Any second-hand stories of visions should be totally dismissed out-of-hand, they aren’t worth considering at all. Often people exploit wise people by attributing a vision to them (e.g. saints, tribal leaders, etc.). Books of visions should be ignored.
- When people are appealing to the writings or teachings of dead people, they’re a con artist. A wise & inspired person lives in the perpetual present moment, so they give thoughts on what’s happening now.
- Wisdom requires age, but age doesn’t automatically give wisdom. Even if someone is inspired, they need to live a while to develop their ways of thinking. Leaders really should be at least 40, even if their brilliance was recognized from childhood. Younger people should absolutely be listened to, because future leaders and inspired people were obviously children at some point. Recognizing a future leader doesn’t mean you put them in charge, but instead they should be encouraged to grow & learn, so that they’ll be ready in the future to lead. Age does not guarantee wisdom, and the world is full of old idiots.
- Follow the money. Do they make money (e.g. advertising, subscriptions, sales) from their opinions, writings, and speaking? Don’t listen to them. Trying to help others is not a for-profit business & it’s a clear sign they’re fake. People should make money doing something real, and that means a job not based on giving facts, opinions, or help of whatever kind. This means all youtubers, priests, and professional psychologists are suspect. These are not inspired people.
- Modern medicine works. Don’t listen to someone who is claiming to cure your diseases if you pay them instead of a doctor. The modern medical system has some extreme problems and this is exploited by armies of hustlers who want you to purchase from them instead. The entire New Age, holistic, and alternative medicine thing is nothing but scams and hustlers who try to pretend they’re somehow better than Big Pharma or whatever they say.
- Anonymous. Inspired people don’t care about book deals or having themselves known in any way. If their name & photograph are well known and lots of people are seeing them, avoid.
- Book deals. Wise & intuitive people don’t write books, they talk to people. Books make them money, so they’re small time hustlers.
- Shutting others out. If they don’t let people get a word in even if others are asking to be let in, they’re a con artist. For example, someone who moderates a popular forum and controls the exchange of ideas is a con artist.
