THE SIXTH (6TH) SENSE


As humans, we are primarily endowed with with five (5) prominent senses. There are actually two others probably not harnessed in most people. These are the sixth (6th) and the seventh (7th) senses, the sixth sense being faith, and the seventh, the Supernatural. The sixth (6th) sense is faith. This is because while the other senses occur and function primarily in the body, it occurs primarily outside the body and is a mind or invisible business. We all agree we have an imagination domiciled in us. It is known also that other senses borrow into the imagination or use little or none of it in their operation. It is a free world of ranging spirits without bodies, including us we do have one. This imagination may truly be termed “The Spirit World”. This is Faith's parlance: Faith operates here and tries to bring benefits from here down to our physical bodies or entire personality, while its opposite, Fear, brings fate and failure from this “Floatdom” of spirits to our being. [I can “scoop” someone's food from their plate of food in my mind. It's all mine to decide]. Everyone (human) including animals do have faith. This is simply expressed in the following attributes: Boldness, Confidence, hope (where we believe for good things for our future), trust (where we put this faith in someone or something else, usually a higher one). These are forms of Faith. The Faith in oneself is called Confidence or boldness and defends the personality. Trust, that in another or higher person or thing seeks to obtain favor, help or defense from them. Even animals are known to be bold. Like the lion. They also express faith (I.e. hope), say in escaping for their lives while hunted, and in believing they can, and prefer to live a prolonged, rather than a short life (hopeful about the future), seek shades or comfortable and safe habitations and attempt to have them (expressing faith or the ability to achieve). Everyone is endowed with Faith, because Faith is the foundation for life and existence. It is a concerted effort to exist to whatever measure of benefit we choose – to enjoy, win, succeed, live, instead of suffer, lose, fail, or die. It's a choice. We can call it a sense because, like the other senses, it is not only felt, but overly so done. Anyone living can confirm that they have warded off a threat by believing it could not hurt them. It was simply a defense, like shutting one's door. Others can accept they have had good things at times, by thinking strongly they can. It was simply an unleashing of faith. Man does have a sixth (6) sense which functions between the physical and the unseen, confirming the truth that there is a spirit world and we all are some spirits.
