What is the use of intellect in the spiritual process?

The intellect is functioning, right? Intellect is functional and you cannot get rid intellect off, even asking a question requires the intellect to be shaped. So the intellect is there, better use the intellect in a way that benefits the user of the intellect.

Who is the user of the intellect, why do we apply the intellect at all? We apply intellect because we feel incomplete, there is something missing and therefore we use intellect just as we use all our other resources to find that which we feel missing in ourselves.

Intellect is a resource, money is a resource, the senses are resources, correct! We use these resources to get something, the resource is not important, the user of the resource is important, and if that is remembered then the resource would never become the master.

Then you would never become intellectual, then you would be the user of the intellect, not someone who is identified with intellect, not someone who is ruled by intellect.

So ask yourself every time; yes intellect is great in problem solving, if there is a problem I apply the intellect but to whom is the problem; but who is facing the problem and why is a situation a problem for me? Or could I blindly rush into fighting a problem using the intellect as my weapon?
