Mahatria, what is intuition?
Can it be developed Mahatria?
The moment we get into the esoteric aspect of life,
first and foremost,
I think we develop a lot of hallucinations.
So, I’m not somebody
who would want to
eagerly develop
premonitions…
intuitions,
the ability to predict what’s coming.
First of all, as an individual,
I’m not even talking about you.
As an individual,
I’ve not desired any of these things
because the moment I start desiring anything esoteric about life,
then the first thing that starts happening is,
you’re not in touch with reality of life,
you start hallucinating a lot,
this is my first thought process.
However, having said this,
I will also say this.
That there are
intuitive abilities in all of us.
There is something
that defies all logic, that defies all rational.
Even when I have a deliberation with anybody
who is a department head
or a product development head,
or the owner of a business,
after explaining the various possible consequences to them,
whenever I have an interaction with the final ask them,
‘What do you feel intuitively?’
Trust that judgment, it’s a gut feeling.
It defies all forms of rational analysis.
I’m sure every day we go through this.
Rational is telling us,
‘This is the right candidate’.
Something in our intuition says,
‘I don’t think I should recruit’.
Eventually, you realize it’s always gut over rational,
it’s always intuition over the whole thing.
So listen to your inner whispers.
They know something which
probably intelligence is not able to reason out.
The point is this…
Only a quiet mind,
can listen to the
whispers of intuition.
A noisy mind,
can never listen to the
whispers of intuition.
Which means
unless you practice at least a few minutes
every day to quieten your mind…
intuition itself will only remain a
noisy concept in your life,
which you can Google and get a lot more information.
You can even do Ph.D. on intuition…
you will still not develop intuitive abilities
as long as you continue to be a noisy mind.
The quieter and quieter,
the quieter and quieter
becomes your mind.
The louder and louder,
becomes the whispers of life.
There’s another name for those whispers of life.
It’s called intuition.
Quieten your mind…
Life will start speaking to you and
life will start speaking through you.
Thank you.
