You have a hidden power, and with it you can learn how to create a better life. This hidden power is your intuition, and as Albert Einstein once said, "The intuitive mind is a sacred gift, and the rational mind a faithful servant. We have created a society that honors the servant and has forgotten the gift." But how do we rediscover our intuitive minds? How can we harness this hidden power and realize our potentials? In Into the Pure … author Tim Nicholls shares the key to his adventures, vitality, and experiences, and he explains how he unlocked the way that led him toward an intuitive understanding of spiritual empowerment. Being open to your own intuitive mind is about being open first to the spiritual dimension—the real you! And focusing on your inner self, feeling your body’s mindfulness, and developing meditative skills will give you the power to hear and interpret the intuitive messages emanating from within. From there, the spirit—the energy of life, the self—will become paramount to your understanding of your being. You will discover how it can answer all things. Developing your intuition is about empowerment and working into the pure energy of your being, and this intuition is the way your inner self communicates. It will point the way in your life with amazing power. You need to get to know it as a close friend—as another voice in your life, shining from within.

CHAPTER 1
The Intuitive Energies and Our Ego Voice
In forming ideas/thoughts about our intuitive energies and our ego voice to the world, while both are needed, this book is about finding your way to better use the soulful/intuitive side of your life.
Soul/intuition is about in the present.
Living in the now is about
• acceptance
• intuition
• understanding
• togetherness
• no blame
• peace
• tolerance
• friendship
Ego voice is about "me." Amongst other things, it is about
• our own ideas
• anger
• pride
• being opinionated
• being unforgiving
• doing stuff
• conflict
• self-importance
• intolerance
• self-interest
Knowing intuition is knowing beyond logic, so you can gain insights into new ways of living. We don't know by intellect. Its source is something we haven't been able to determine. Such as it is, you will know your intellect but will not be able to explain it.
Intuition is a higher order of intellect. Working on becoming more aware of intuitive energy is more about how you feel in your heart. Spiritual essence of our lives is reached differently by different people. Some are really intuitive from heart energy. Just knowing before you know. Others will develop techniques to better work with their intuitive selves. Talking with someone who has high order seventh sense skill, a mystical ability, and seeking to find out more of what they do will give you a better understanding of psychic realm. Indian author Osho, a.k.a. Rajneesh, says, "Intuition is the mystic rose that leads you to the ultimate ecstasy, to immortality." He is talking about enlightenment.
Intuition is realizing your potential and knowing beyond logic.
To get started with opening to your intuitive life,
1. You must first decide to be open to your intuitive life and to be okay with it. It finds you, so be prepared to receive it.
2. Keep a journal of key things that you feel, of dreams, and write down your hunches.
3. Find a peaceful and quiet place and imagine things. This is the turning of your energies to inner things rather than the clatter of the outside world.
4. Write down the key questions that you're asking yourself. In time, maybe by morning, you will have revealed and be given the answers. Trust in this to work. You have to be open to the idea. Also, practice writing the questions. You need to be explicit. These questions you ask of yourself will be the most important questions you will answer in your life. The answers will come. They will not be tainted by the outer ego world. They will be only answered to you. The energy is always there.
5. Just listen. Cut off that critic inside you that has to explain everything. Try to have no judgment.
6. Listen to your inner intuition.
7. Find a place in the house, or garden, or on a beach that is peaceful, and ground yourself. Calm contentment is the goal.
8. Be mindful of what has been happening. Be open to it and don't judge it.
9. Just look, observe, and take more notice.
10. Feel your body. Breathe deep and well from your tummy, extending outward.
11. Think of other people and be empathetic. You will learn to better understand people's thinking.
12. If you write down your dreams, you will get in touch with your subconscious, or intuitive part of your brain.
13. Get rid of negative thoughts as much as you can. You don't want to be feeling emotionally negative. People around you will find you tough in life. The opposite is true. Life becomes more of a joy and comfort if your glass is half full!
CHAPTER 2
Intuitive Natural Life
We all need to take our own spiritual journey, and we will find it in different ways, but universal to all is the energy of our self, our soul. It is at a metaphysical level, which can be interpreted as coming from the things of nature. It is comfortable to accept a world beyond the physical plane we know, the God particle too, of things we newly know, and now will know through discovery, but for some people, it is a realm they're hesitant in approaching. Anxiety comes from unfamiliarity. Investigative individualistic people can be attracted to this idea. Dismissal can be from fear. Yet, to learn from masters, and opening opportunities to study life force, we can gain hugely by getting in touch with our real selves. It is no greater than to commune with nature, as it is nature itself. It's nothing to feel strange about. Find naturalness in all we do: find a waterfall, find a good beach. We are there ...
Philosopher, speaker, and writer Jiddu Krishnamurti was regarded by many as a great teacher, yet as he said late in his life, "What we learned from him is that we learned nothing." He obviously wants us to make the gesture of finding our self-energy by asking the questions about the meaning of our lives. The answers will come from within, not from the icon he had become.
I became aware of Krishnamurti from chatting with a psychology professor during which...
