The Function of Innate Intelligence is to create adaptive forces to be used in and for the body.
Everything in the universe has a purpose and that purpose is its function.
Obviously, Innate Intelligence, being in the universe, has a purpose. Objects of inorganic matter do not need adaptation, so they have no special attention from Universal Intelligence. This special attention is given to certain units of matter, by Universal Intelligence, and the name of this special attention is Innate Intelligence.
Innate Intelligence, the law of organization, continually coordinates the forces and materials within the organism to keep it actively organized.
Innate takes elements of no adaptive character, puts them together. "investing with new character," and now a new structure is brought into being, and is so maintained. Nothing less than intelligence could do this. It is all accomplished, not by creating new forces and matter "out of nothing," but "investing" what is already existing with new character. Thus the natural energies within the body are assembled and made to do work of organization.
In this light, then Innate Intelligence is the intelligence within the organism, which systematizes the forces already there; it is, scientifically speaking, the principle of organization. Its creations are forces systematized adaptively, and materials built into
intelligently planned forms.
