Ron,
This is my own hypothetical interpretation, of course.
RMP wrote of consciousness, "Consciousness can be described as a process of
defining Dynamic Quality"- (LC, Annotation 57). This puts consciousness
between Dynamic Quality and defining & applying static patterns of value. I
consider 'intellect' to be an aspect of consciousness. Some schools of
Buddhism consider consciousness to be comprised of six different
consciousnesses: mind consciousness and the five sense consciousnesses.
'Intellect', I think, is mind consciousness or one aspect of mind consciousness.
Thanks for asking.
Marsha
