Only with the help of intuition can a person comprehend the difference between intellect, logical thinking and the more comprehensive domain of the spirit. Logic is how the mind knows reality; intuition is how the spirit experiences the experience of reality.
We all have a natural ability for intuition, but social conditioning and formal education often work against it. We are taught to ignore our own instincts instead of understanding and using them as a basis for individual growth and development. And in the process, we undermine the very roots of our innate wisdom, which was meant to blossom into intuition.
How to explain intuition?
The leap in intuition can be felt because it leaves a gap. Intuition can be sensed by the intellect: it can notice that something has happened - but it cannot be explained, because a causal connection is required to explain. Explanation involves answering the questions of where intuition comes from, why, and why. And it comes from somewhere outside, not from the intellect itself - and there is no intellectual reason. No reason, no connection; intuition is not an extension of the intellect.
Past, Present and Future.
You have a past, present and future.
- Instinct is that which belongs to the animal past. He is very old, very strong; it is a legacy of millions of years. Our past is an animal past.
- Intelligence is human. This is our present. This is how we function - from the intellect. All of our sciences, all of our business, all of our professions are all based on intelligence. Intelligence is human.
Like instinct, but on the other pole of your being - beyond the mind that belongs to the world of intellect - is the world of intuition. The doors of intuition open in meditation. This is your consciousness, your being.

Here are the three layers of human science
Obstacles to cognition
What is the difference between knowledge and cognition? Knowledge is theory, cognition is experience. It is thanks to knowledge that man has become separated from the whole - knowledge creates distance. Meditation is a state of not knowing. Meditation is a pure space, unclouded by knowledge. First discard the contents - you will become half empty. Then drop consciousness - you will become completely empty. And this complete emptiness is the most beautiful thing that can happen, the greatest blessing.
The ability for intuition and the ability to create your own reality are not only different, but also diametrically opposite things. Intuition is just a mirror. It does not create anything, it only reflects. It reflects what is. It is clear, quiet, crystal clear water that begins to reflect the stars and the moon; It doesn't create anything. This clarity in the East has been called the third eye. The eyes do not create anything, they simply communicate what is.
Politics
The world of politics is basically instinctive. It belongs to the law of the jungle: the one who is stronger is right.
Politics is the will to power.
Relax
Everything great in science did not come from intellect, but from intuition.
Relaxation is the foundation of meditation. You relax - when you relax, all tensions are dropped. Scientific discoveries always arise from meditation, not from the mind. And every time something comes out of the mind, it is not science, it is technology. Technology is a poor thing; it is not an insight, but an instrument of insight. Technology comes from the mind, because the mind itself is a technological tool, a biological technology.
Science comes from no-mind, just as religion comes from no-mind. The sources of science and religion are not separate, the source is the same - because they both depend on breakthroughs, insights, intuitive flashes.
Find the Inner Guide
You have a guide inside you, but you do not use it. And you have not used it for so long, for so many lives, that perhaps you do not even realize that this vehicle exists within you. Be serene. Sit under a tree and just let your thoughts settle and subside. Just wait, don't think. Don't make trouble, just wait. And when you feel that the moment of non-thinking has come, get up and start moving. Wherever the body moves, let it move. Just be a witness. Don't get involved. The lost road can be found very easily.
Make Happiness Your Criterion
Does an intuitive person always succeed? No, but he is always happy whether he is successful or not. And a person who does not live intuitively is always unhappy, regardless of whether he is successful. Be clear in your mind - don't be success-oriented. Success is the world's greatest failure. Don't try to succeed, otherwise you will fail. Think about being blissful. Think every moment of how to be more and more blissful. Then the whole world can say that you are a failure, but you will not be a failure. You have reached.
