This, of course, is your reification of your concept. On the other hand both
of the articles you posted in the "Reifying Carrots" thread argue that while
there is tendency of the intellect to reify, it is not absolute, the habit
can be broken, and it is good to do so. The MoQ makes the same argument.
Your reified position above argues against this possibility. Thus your love
for, and misunderstanding of the "kill the intellect" translation. You
forget that the verse is not a literal truth but a tool, a pointer. One that
points to danger of the very idea you are trying to reify. The idea that the
intellect functions in one and only one way, always dividing perceptions
into subject and objects. That you fail to understand this is, well, proof
that in your case the reality of a reified, unchangeable, intellect is true.
But that's just me reifying your reifications.
