Intuition...

"Intuition or direct knowledge does not depend on any data from the senses.

That
is why the intuitive faculty is often called the 'sixth sense.'

Everyone has
this sixth sense, but most people do not develop it.

However, almost everyone
has had some intuitional experience,

perhaps a 'feeling' that a particular thing
is going to happen, when there is no sensory evidence to indicate it.

"It is important to develop intuition, or direct soul knowledge,

for he who is
God-conscious is sure of himself.

He knows, and he knows that he knows...."
