Most of the people are intelligent. It is rare to find amongst them  those of extraordinary intelligence or the stupid, or idiotic. These  rarities are not being judged here. Therefore, this discussion is about the common people, or the majority of the people. This is not a  discussion on extraordinary intelligence, because the basis of  extraordinary intelligence is spontaneity, so it must exist in these  people naturally. As for the stupid people and the idiots, their  treatment is useless; as it was said in the past, “faalij laa tu’aalij,” which means if it is in semi-paralysis, don’t treat it. Therefore, we do  not target them nor pay attention to treating them. They will continue to be stupid whatever efforts are spent on them. Nothing will benefit them regarding spontaniety; whether it is the treatment of those of them who work with physical matters, like the carpenters and blacksmiths, or those who work with and in thought, like the teachers and ideological politicians.

This is because, despite their work in these fields, this does not add anything to them; for the problem is in the innate nature, i.e. the way they were created. Thus, treatment should be for the common or the majority of the people. Though intelligence needs definition, it is however like the term spontaniety. So, it can be of the type that needs definition or of  the automatic (aaliy) type. Making all of intelligence of the automatic  type is better. However, it is better to define it, for it may be  beneficial. If we defined intelligence, we still take it as automatic. It  is thus enough to utter the word intelligence for us to know what it  is. Most people differentiate between the intelligent and the  nonintelligent; they differentiate between the extraordinary  intelligence and the ordinary intelligence, just by knowing the word  intelligence alone and by seeing or accompanying the people.

Intelligence is the speed of sensation and the speed of linking. Any  other definition would only be entering into the details, which is of  no use. The mind transfers the reality to the brain through  sensation, beside previous information to explain this reality. This  definition of mind explains intelligence. The speed of sensation  means the speed of transferring the reality to the brain. The  previous information means the linkage. Therefore, intelligence is  quick sensation and quick linkage. Thus intelligence is a type of  mind, a type of thought and a type of thinking. So what applies to  mind, thought and thinking applies to it. If one examines this  closely, he finds that it is dependent on sensation and linkage. The  speed of this represents intelligence, i.e. it represents the action of  the distinguished mind or the distinguished thought or the  distinguished thinking.
