The result was delete. The arguments for retaining this article are overall weak and unpursuasive, notably those that claim the subject is notable without adequate evidence. – Juliancolton | Talk 00:34, 26 October 2009 (UTC) reply
Article seems to consist mostly of original research or the author's own interpretation of the sources, and reads as the author's personal essay on the topic. Subject of article is fairly disjointed (to the point where it became difficult to determine an appropriate category for the article when I prepared this nomination). Author means well, but I believe this comes under WP:NOT#ESSAY and WP:NOTDICTIONARY. Singularity42 ( talk) 19:55, 10 October 2009 (UTC) reply
And this differs from creativity how?
Sounds like, "Many inventors can remember when they invented something"—which sounds too fuzzy to me.
I believe that that was a metaphorical dream (see the last paragraph in this article), not actual—which means it denies this article's central thesis (or at least what I think it is—it's certainly not clear to me).
Once we're talking about a "spiritual force," I think we're out of the realm of what can be written in a WP article (that is, outside of a referenced "some believe that…").
While that may be a quote from a book, just saying it doesn't make it so.
Always? Sometimes? Or just "one person once said…"?
