Intuition


What is intuition???

A strong feeling that supersedes all logical reasoning and turns out to be right defying all explanation. Right???

No! Wrong!

Our worlds are built around logic…pure and austere…pristine and unsullied.

When we make a decision really fast, each step in the process of thinking overlaps and creates the illusion of intuition. Just like magic…it is appealing as long as you do not know the steps.

Similarly intuition is merely super fast thinking.

It is not a message from a higher power, it is not a message from your heart and it is most definitely not a signal to indicate that you have psychic powers!

I am sure that love too follows an algorithm and it is not impossible to figure it out. But just like magic…knowing the detailed steps would kill the aura and heady feeling associated with it.

So…what’s the verdict?

Let’s continue to pretend that intuition does exist.


PS: Let me add a line that’d make men disagree to this post.
The general consensus is that women are more intuitive than men. Winks!

  2. well..i guess, the whole human race,individually or collectively, aims for one thing-Happiness!!
    If assumption of "intuition" helps to get us nearer to solving that equation,i guess it should be taken as axiom..not merely assumption alone!!

    ps-i do agree that women are more intuitive than men! but i do disagree to the "generalisation of men"...milady! :)

  3. Loved your comment Susmit!

    And the generalization was just a casual dig...not meant seriously. :-)
