The Teaching of Hazrat Inayat Khan

In all these three aspects intelligence is one and the same. In the first aspect it is the only Being, in the next aspect it is omniscient, and in the third aspect it is the mind, or what the mind contains. One may be called the intelligence of God, the next heavenly intelligence, and the third human intelligence. The origin of intelligence is pure intelligence, the intelligence of God; but that intelligence is not intelligent, it becomes intelligent; that is to say it begins to feel its existence. It is just like a man who is intelligent, but when he is asleep his intelligence is not intelligent; it is only when he is awake that he knows of his existence. That is another aspect of intelligence.
