The gate of Ideas is the conceptual possibility which emerges from the difficult task of realizing.
This gate prepares a concept for articulation through the capacity of its visual memory.
Like its mirror,
the 17th gate of Opinion,
the 11th gate is associated in our biology with the eyes, here, the left eye.
The left eye operates in a wave.
In the now,
it sees only an aspect of the whole,
yet over time, given its memory,
it can capture the entire picture.
Ideas are not facts, they are possibilities.
The process of making sense out of something cannot stop at realization.
The goal of mental awareness is expression.
The idea is a tool geared to express what has been sensed.
This is a gate of those who seek stimulation,
who have a need to stimulate,
to share their ideas.
So many people are frustrated when their wonderful ideas do not turn into realities,
but look at the design.
The fulfillment of an idea is its verbal expression,
not action;
and with good reason,
this is the circuit of cycles,
transitoriness and the wave.
Ideas are not a prescription for action,
they are stimulation for reflection.
A HARMONIC CONDITION IN THE INDIVIDUAL OR SOCIETY THAT PERMITS ASSESSMENT BEFORE RENEWED ACTION.
