How unity of purpose can trump intellectual agreement


Unity of purpose in affirming the Spirit-Will-To-Godhood is more important than intellectual agreement. Intellectuals can argue endlessly while the Spirit-Will waits to be fulfilled.

This is not an anti-intellectual stance, it is an intellectual acknowledgment that the living object takes precedence over the idea of the object, reality trumps the abstract, the "spiritual" comes after the supermaterial.

But this is abstract in the sense of having faith and idealism in the sacred evolution of life to Godhood. This is faith in progress, a modern idea---although Walter Kaufmann claims the Hebrew prophets first thought of progress as possible. Disbelief in progress and evolution seems primitive, where only cycles could be seen with no linear progression---the traditionalist school makes this mistake.
