ABSTRACT

In the April Omni Magazine there is a good article on creativity. I highly recommend it. But I can't resist writing about it also. To begin with, a very reassuring statement appears at the head of the article, “No correlation between measured IQ and creativity exists. Intuition, more than rational thought, appears to be vital to the creative thinking process.” I don't know what my IQ is – it's probably so low that I purposely forgot it. Hopefully yours is high, but if not – take heart. According to Candice Pert of the National Institute of Mental Health, creativity comes from the spiritual realm, the collective consciousness. And the mind is in a different realm than the molecules of the brain. The brain is a receiver, not a source. Pretty heady stuff, eh?
