Suspension of reason?

When a belief in God requires that you suspend reason, it’s not God; it’s dogma!  

All the great religions teach that you must quiet the mind -- even turn it off -- to experience the grace of God. Yet, there is nothing unreasonable about bypassing reason to access a higher form of consciousness.

After all, where do good ideas come from? Why do they always seem to come in a flash when we're not engaged in reason? Reason is slow and easily derailed by misguided beliefs. Intuition is instant, and often dead on. 

Ideas “flash.” Making sense of it all, well, that takes time and reason.
