For the sake of accuracy, the words used in SCI #8 actually are: "When existence becomes conscious, then intelligence becomes intelligent, on the way to assuming its role as creative intelligence." So if "intelligence is Shiva" and "creativity [creative intelligence] is Shakti" - Let's fill in the whole sequence...there seem to be five steps or layers or aspects: "When (1) existence becomes (2) conscious, then (3) intelligence be- comes (4) intelligent, on the way to assuming its role as (5) creative intelligence." (1) What is existence before it becomes conscious? (2) What is existence once it's become conscious? (3) What is intelligence before it becomes intelligent? [you said "Shiva"] (4) What is intelligence once it's become intelligent? (5) What is creative intelligence?
