I think we are all always being spatially intelligent, which is the beauty of
laddy-g: here
you came!
eternumpace: spatial
intelligence, it's almost a synonym of mythology in the best sense of the
eternumpace: word.
That is, we get our sense of ourselves through our movement through
eternumpace: space
and time and feeling, but specifically through the physical and
eternumpace: ideological
architecture of the world. And this sense is structured like any story.
eternumpace: However,
what if there is one main story like one main branch that runs
eternumpace: through
all time and every person even into the future? Literature and culture
eternumpace: resonates
with this branch or tree or story and the tree is likewise repeated in
eternumpace: part
or whole in every leaf of grass so to speak because presumably we and
eternumpace: every
event is completely involved in the growth of this tree. Consciousness is
eternumpace: biological
but not necessarily limited to what we term biological for the simple
eternumpace: reason
that if human terminology is purely a function of neurochemistry then
eternumpace: we
would be hopelessly bound by our own sense of what consciousness is; it is
eternumpace: a
mystery. Hence, spatial intelligence is that grand story about how
eternumpace: consciousness
is written into the fabric of every structure from bridges to works
eternumpace: purely
of the imagination, to everything. It is about the divinity of humanity
eternumpace: and
civilization which must then be approached with a reverence for all human
eternumpace: invention,
especially since it may not be purely human or maybe more than
eternumpace: human.
There is a pattern to our understanding and even if we cannot
eternumpace: understand
it, we can recognize or remember it. Spatial intelligence is not a
eternumpace: new or old
way of knowing, it is a new and old orientation to knowledge that
recognizes
patterns with a primal thirst for beauty—the divine. It is not so
much
of the mind as of the soul. It is about the divinity of you when you allow
yourself
to be intimately involved in the imagination of the universe. It is about
human
love, human personality, paradox, irony, and humor. It is who we are. It
is
the language of the gods.
