What is an Intuition?

I think we all agree that intuition is something that happens, without having to agree to how it happens.

I feel it best, at this point, to talk a bit about intuition.

As you’ve already read, I point to the responsive naturing of all that manifests as the mark of the coherent spontaneity, rather than any causal determinism, in the genesis of all things — even, and especially, our own thoughts. Ultimately, I hope we will all come to agree that “intuition” is just the name we give to the spontaneity of thoughts. Could it be that intuition, i.e., spontaneity, is present in everything that arises in our minds?
