"Attaining understanding from your own consciousness is the highest point of spiritual elevation.
That which you learn, you grasp from without, and it descends in its character. How different this is from the expression that rises from the midst of your soul!
That which you learn is at best a profound idea teaching you to draw forth what is hidden in your heart, in the depths of your soul: the essence of what you can comprehend from your consciousness.
Your consciousness streams forth constantly, creative and active.
The supernal creative person does not create but only duplicates. He draws lights, new and alive, from a supernal source to where they have never been—from a place the eagle has not known, where no eye has gazed, no man has passed, none has dwelled.
When such personal greatness is revealed, one's ear is faithful; one's heart hearkens and says nothing that it has not heard from its teachers, the true, righteous prophets, whose mouths are true with the word of G-d."
----- Rav Avraham Yitzchak Kook (HaRav)
