I add FAITH. Faith [of many levels of quality] comes in when reason and science cannot capture absolute truth. It allows intellect to go, in stillness, beyond reason and science, to go beyond formal logicand vison/network-logic to enter transpersonal (mystical, if you will) states, to enter DQ that creates buddha, sangha, and dharma.. This is not irrationality but reasonableness. Take the question of God. The existence of God cannot be proven or disproven by reason or science [although, I think, proofs for God's existence have an edge over proofs for non-existence]. Thus intellect's leap of faith -- non-scientific, non-rational and not irrational, but reasonable -- bringing along all other powers. As the God in the Bible suggests: "Be stll and know that I am God." (Psalm 46:11). Paco May Yahweh bless you and keep you! May Yahweh let his face shine on you, and be gracious to you! May Yahweh look kindly on you, and give you his peace!
