An article in one of our National Newspapers made me smile the other day.  When we need an answer to a question, how do we receive an answer.  Is it by analyzing the situation over and over again?  Is it by following your gut instinct? Or asking for spiritual intervention?

From a personal point of view I tend to do two things.  Whilst I do listen to my gut instinct, I also ask a question before I go to sleep and more often than not I have receive an answer to that dilemma. Which just backs up my gut instinct.

Just for your information and enjoyment I have reproduced the article here for you to read.

“Got to make a big decision?  Just trust your basic instinct

Instinct may be more reliable than the conscious brain at making decisions, says a psychologist.

A study has found evidence that most hunches are based on memories that lie just below the surface of the conscious brain.

When you think that these institutes are funded to carry out this research, sometimes for years on end, just to reach the conclusion that we should all ‘follow our gut instinct‘, is totally beyond me.  When are people going to realize that there is truth in these old age sayings and we do not need to spend out sometimes hundreds of thousands of dollars reaching it.  But I suppose it keeps them busy.

Maybe the answers are given by memories that lie just below the surface of the conscious,  which to my understanding is the sub-conscious, but then again authorities do not like using that name because it automatically makes people think of the paranormal.

For those of us who do believe in the power of the sub-conscious mind, whether it be as a great big memory bank or as a gateway to our higher self - all you need to do is ask a question and one way or another it will be answered.  Whether it be by dream or ‘gut instinct -’ it is usually the correct one.  Of course, it is your own personal decision whether you follow instinct or not.
