Revelation, Divine Inspiration, Epiphany, Vision.... This "religious" language, believed classically to be from some external being, remains the best language available to identify certain phenomenon. It comes from beyond our control and we in that important sense can take no credit for it.
Pitirim Sorokin's notion of Supra Intelligence best captures what I experience and believe on the subject. Essentially Sorokin views that the terms I not above come from that portion of our brain that by far is the most powerful, but that is not directly accessible to us through conscious manipulation.
Maybe what Sorokin and E.O. Wilson in his book "Consillience" and I sense is some sort of portal to an external "God." I don't know. I don't care. It is AWESOME. IT IS ALMIGHTY.
