Intellectual understanding if the first step to know our own Self, the mystic is not on blind faith path, it leads nowhere. The fact that the mystic ASKS for understanding implies that there is that mustard seed size faith that is enough to start the journey, and that is the beauty of Grace, that even when not recognized is still present no matter how long it takes us to acknowledge that we are holding the answer to our prayer. In the metaphysical bible dictionary John The Baptist is described as "high intellectual perception of Truth not yet quickened by Spirit", occupying this state of mind allows for the understanding asked for in the statement "let there be Light", clearly the "business of the Father" are to be handled in the flesh, with eyes open and in every aspect of our life for the Father is Life, and Life is NOW. The mind as my servant is overshadowed by ME, and is now Disciplined Imagination, thoughts still may feel like wild horses but they could not drag me away from the place of growing assurance that I know occupy.
As children to be taken care of by a parent is expected, we can still do that, as we grow in understanding we recognize Who is the Real Parent, we discover who has been "doing" the taking care of.
