I now know. An idea springs into awareness fully formed. It is experienced as actually accomplished. There is the conviction of correctness, of things as they should be, can be, will be. They appear as if out of nothing.

They fill their minds with the irrelevant, random, and disconnected notions floating around them. Thereafter, their minds return the favor and give them the irrelevant, random, and the disconnected.
