Logic, without intuition, fails to have broad, deep and true vision. Intuition, when it is stronger than logic, is like water without a course to follow, and dissipates across the land without bringing forth life.
Logic derives from intellectual training, and Elisha Grey, being a polymath who has studied and lectured on many subjects at The Temple of Learning, uses it well, while being open to intuition.
Kiara Ptolmai, being a hands-on healer from an oral tradition of the Caucasus, and being raised in Chungkuo, where the understanding of the role of the ethereal soul – that part of our being that contains all memory across time – is highly intuitive, and yet her jurisprudence studies have developed a deeper understanding of the best application of logic.
Both logic and intuition are necessary to have a full, deep understanding of any event or situation, and both Elisha Grey and Kiara Ptolmai exemplify this paradigm – coming from the different aspects of logic and intuition, yet both of them applying the two together, they become astute observers and solvers of the criminal activities of their day.
Even though their history is set in Atlantis during the Second Era (between two major wars), many of the mysteries may seem familiar, for, as one psychic told me years ago, “the old Atlanteans are back, and they’re up to their own tricks.” As Hegel said (who was quoted in the Sherlock Holmes’ mysteries), “there is nothing new under the sun.”
While logic may hold back the reins when proceeding forward in an endeavor, intuition can catapult one into a course of action that requires logic to catch up. When both of them are honed to work in concert, they best follow the balance implied within the universal law described in the t’ai chi t’u (Grand Ultimate Map, also called the “yin/yang” sign). They depend upon one another, they generate one another, they contain one another, and when one has reached its ultimate expression, it becomes the opposite. These opposites aren’t diametrically opposed – they are mutually interdependent and inseparable.
When working dynamically in a balanced way, logic and intuition can yield actions that exemplify pragmatic justice as well as empathetic recognition of the need to change the world, one situation at a time. As The Casebook of Elisha Grey evolves over the volumes, which will total five of three novelettes each, Elisha Grey and Kiara Ptolmai will not only influence each other in their use of logic and intuition, they will bring them together to gain deeper understanding of what lies behind the crimes that they are called upon to solve.
