To awaken intelligence, one must be fully present in the moment from "summary" of The Awakening of Intelligence by J. KRISHNAMURTI

One must understand that intelligence is not a matter of mere accumulation of knowledge. It is not about being well-read or having a high IQ. True intelligence goes beyond the confines of the intellect; it is a state of being that is in tune with the present moment. When we talk about awakening intelligence, we are referring to a deep awareness that is rooted in the now. This means being fully present in each moment, without being clouded by the past or future. It requires a clear and undivided attention to what is happening right now, without any preconceived notions or biases. To be fully present in the moment is to be in a state of heightened awareness, where the mind is free of distractions and judgments. It is a state of pure observation, where one sees things as they are, without imposing one's own interpretations or beliefs. In this state of presence, intelligence can blossom naturally. It is not something that can be forced or cultivated through effort. When one is fully present in the moment, the mind is open and receptive to new possibilities, insights, and understanding. This kind of intelligence is not limited to the intellectual realm; it encompasses a deep sense of intuition, creativity, and compassion. It is a holistic way of knowing that transcends the boundaries of thought and logic.
  1. To awaken intelligence is to awaken to the fullness of life itself. It is to be fully engaged with the world around us, without being weighed down by the past or consumed by worries about the future. It is a state of being that is alive, vibrant, and in constant renewal.
