One of the most minuscule forms of life on the planet is the human cell. This is an organism that intuitively knows it's every task. It never questions it's situation, for it knows exactly what it needs to accomplish it's functions. This cell is one of trillion's in a vast network of cells all operating in unison. Harmonizing perfectly with one another.
No direction is needed, no goals are set. There is never a single criticism or judgement made. Only trillions of cells functioning as one. Cells that are 1/1000th of an inch in size and are in some instances operating feet from one another, which would equate to miles in relation to our distance, and never missing a beat.
These cells are operated by the same intelligence that runs all things universal, from star activities in the cosmos to the reproduction of these very cells in our bodies. This knowledge is intuitive. It is automatic, and exists within all things. As humans we have the special gift of awareness, yet most of us never consider the complexity of the processes that occur within our own bodies every day. Without any knowable instructions these functions just happen.
With that in mind, most of the day to day occurrences involved in our life situations are simple in comparison. We too have the same ability to know our way free from worry, just as the cell does.
The same way a flower knows when to bloom, and when to wilt.
When we learn to follow our intuition, we will know our life's purpose.
Consider the Earth as one body, where each one of us is functioning as part of the whole, like the cell,formed with the complete instructions on how to function and fulfill our existence.
Through my practice, I have discovered the power of meditation, and I find it is the "direct line" to my intuitive sense.

This is profound as well: "There is never a single criticism of judgement made".

Great post, and a point of view I never considered in my meditation. Very profound "it never questions it's situation...." this is mindfulness. I just never thought to think of it in cellular terms. Welcome to Buddha Weekly.
