If intellect predominates, sweetness of life is lost.

[Guest guest]

" If a person's intellect predominates, he will not be able to enjoy

sweetness and beauty. Unable to penetrate the surface of things or

dive deep within, he will perceive only exteriors. While sitting on

the seashore, instead of enjoying the beauty of the waves and the

vastness of the ocean, he will think about how the ocean came into

existence. Filled with such thoughts, he will even fail to notice the

gentle caress of the breeze from the sea, its expansiveness and

vastness. " - Ammachi, Awaken Children, Vol.4 p249 (0229)
