Intuition
Direct information, free of reasoning, that does not pass through the intellect—though it draws on it—and corresponds to the truth. When an intuition is doubted, it is interrupted. Culture has often been mistaken in teaching us that this way of grasping information is not valid.
In the Foundation's Topics
Intuition is the line of thought that emanates directly from the Being, and perceiving it requires a total absence of reasoning.
Our aspiration should be to use reasoning less and less, and understanding and intuition more and more, so that we can rise spiritually.
