When one is engaged in practice, one is not so concerned with intellectual understanding. One wants only to practice. This means that one\u2019s heart has become big, or his desire for inner peace or knowledge of Self has become more full.<\/p>\n<p>When one\u2019s desire is not as full, he seeks intellectual teaching. Intellectual teaching can serve two purposes:<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">Intellectual teaching can be used to water desire so that it grows into more fullness and leads to practice, or \u2026<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">Intellectual teaching can be used to satisfy the ego\u2019s idea of \u201cI am spiritual\u201d and it can lead to more and more intellectual reading and seeking without many intervals of true practice.<\/p>\n<p>True practice leads to awakening, because true practice is not believing ego. Since belief in ego is the only problem, not believing ego as self is true practice, and true practice is the solution until solution is no longer needed.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">~From our Holy Spirit<\/p>\n<p>Note: The next tip will be available tomorrow morning after 3:50am ET at\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/awakening-together.org\/dev2\/day-261-tip\"><em>this link<\/em><\/a><em>.<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Please read and contemplate the following commentary in the same way that you read and contemplate the Thought of Awakening.
