Intuitions

In one of the sessions of Rebt..we discussed about intuitions..which actually sounded very interesting to me..i am sure..all of us might have experienced thoughts that would have moulded into actions without our realization..our mind is a 24 hours machine that has numerous thoughts,feelings coming across..many are ignored thinking that it doesn't have relevance with you future..but you may never know when it turns into reality..can call it instinctive knowledge or feeling or a non-conscious thinking.Consciousness is sometimes invaded by uninvited truth.. there to behold... if we desist from rational thinking and instead listen to the small voices within.

After the session i went back home and searched for articles related to intuition..where i found :Intuition is frequently called a hunch, a gut feeling, a burst of genius, a gut response, and even luck.it functions on the physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual levels. Each person experiences intuition differently. There may be physical sensations, such as tingling of the skin or a feeling of leaden weights in the stomach; inner voices; seemingly explicable attractions or aversions to newly met people; inspirational solutions to problems; feelings of closeness to God or the Divine Force; mental imagery; or clue from the environment that alter personal plans.

You know sometimes we are so lost in our thoughts that we don't realize how we reached a particular destination..may be because we completely rely on our automatic unconscious processes.we're just not aware of ourselves.for example..you are walking..lost in your thoughts..and you don't realize that you jumped over puddles..escaped from a mishap..etc..and when you reach your destination you might never remember what hurdles did you cross..Unconscious processes operate all the time in complex decision-making. Often enough, we just don't give them credit. Often we cite rational-sounding criteria for our feelings and actions and do not disclose the subjective preferences of feelings that arise spontaneously

It has actually happened with me.. one of the strong intuitions i had was before 6-8 years back..when an earthquake hit Gujarat..i was constantly feeling negative..could sense unpleasant vibes..kept on telling my friend that something bad is going to happen..and it happened..
one more incidence i remember is the latest one..i kept on having bad thoughts related to my dad..that something wrong is going to happen..i didn't tell it anybody because i thought that if i disclose this to anybody it would change into reality..again it happened..may rebt mam told us that if you can change your intuitions..that is if you modify your intuitions the way you modify you thoughts..the effect of the original act reduces..and i believe in it cause if i had not modified my intuitions with positive thinking the worst situation could have taken place..

Our gut level intuitions have helped us all avert—and sometimes enabled—misfortunes. "Nobody can dictate my behavior," said Diana, Princess of Wales, in her last interview before her fatal accident. "I work through instinct, and instinct is my best counselor."

i think blogs/diaries are the best way to keep an account of your thoughts..your intuitions..for you may realize it later..that "o!this is exactly what i thought!"

k then..keep writing..
keep smiling..
drive safe!
take care!
ciao!
