“Pass on from the name, and look closer to the source. The source will show you what you seek. Leave the form behind.”   Rumi.

Before beginning our alphabetical guide to creative intelligence, let’s just take a quick look at the alphabet itself — a most perfect example of creative intelligence in action.

With these tiny shapes – little black lines and curves on a white space – human beings have created an agreed code with which we can express our lives and our world.

And preserve that expression in a form that can be transmitted to people far away from us in time and space.

Analytical intelligence is necessary for us to understand the agreed structures that underwrite the alphabet — to read it.

Creative intelligence is what we do with that understanding, what we make it mean in our own lives

That is what our creative intelligence is: our own unique meaning maker.
