इंट्यूशन, अंतज्र्ञान, सहज ज्ञान, इनर वाइस, हॉयर पावर या जो भी कहें। इसके संबंध में बहुत कुछ हम लोग सुनते आए हैं। व्यावहारिक बुद्धि, यानी तार्किकता से यह इक्कीस साबित होती है, यह भी अक्सर कहा जाता रहा है। आम बोलचाल की लैंग्वेज में जिसे दिल की आवाज कहते हैं, वह शायद इंट्यूशन ही है। इसे समझकर अपने जीवन में ज्यादा अनुकूलता को हासिल किया जा सकता है, यह भी कहा जाता है। यह सफलता की कुंजी और वास्तविक मार्गदर्शक है। लेकिन इस दिल की आवाज को सुनना उस पर यकीन करना- दोनों अपने आप में कठिन काम है।तो इसके संबंध में कुछ दिनों से जिज्ञासा बनी हुई थी। नेट खंगाला तो पता चला कि कैसे इसे सुना जाए। इनर वाइस कैसे सुना जा सकता है।
परमहंस योगानंद का एक आर्टिकल मिला, जिसमें उन्होंने बताया है कि शांति के जरिए ही इंट्यूशन को विकसित किया जा सकता है। वे तो यह तक कहते हैं कि पावर ऑफ इंट्यूशन के बिना सच को जाना ही नहीं जा सकता है। यह इंद्रियों से मिलने वाले ज्ञान से अलग व श्रेष्ठतर होता है। बकौल योगानंद इंट्यूशन मतलब सोल परसेप्शन (आत्मा का प्रत्यक्ष ज्ञान या प्रत्यक्ष बोध) होता है। लीजिए पढि़ए उस आर्टिकल के एक हिस्से का अनुवाद...
ऐसे होता है इंट्यूशन विकसित
प्योर रीजन (शुद्ध उद्देश्य) और शांतचित्तता इंट्यूशन के लिए मौलिक तत्व हैं। लिहाजा शांति का विकास प्राथमिक जरूरत है। वैसे इंट्यूशन का विकास और भी चीजों से होता है। नियमित कॉमन सेंस की एक्सरसाइज, डेली इंट्रोस्पेक्शन (खुद का अवलोकन), एनॉलिसिस, विचारों की गहराई और एक ही दिशा में लगातार काम करने से भी इंट्यूशन का विकास होता है। वैसे इन सबसे ऊपर और इनसे बेहतर है मेडिटेशन (ध्यान)।
यदि आप ध्यान या एकाग्रता के द्वारा शांति की एक संतुलित अवस्था का निर्माण करते हैं, तब आप अपनी कठिन-से-कठिन समस्याओं का समाधान भी पा सकते हैं। शांति की इस अवस्था में इंट्यूशन आपकी बुद्धि को गाइड करती है।
जब कभी आप इंट्यूशन के जरिए अपनी समस्या का समाधान करना चाहते हैं। सबसे पहले गहरा ध्यान कीजिए या खुद को शांत कीजिए। अपनी धड़कनों को पूरी तरह शांत हो लेने दीजिए। ध्यान के दौरान अपनी समस्या के बारे में बिलकुल विचार मत कीजिए। ध्यान तब तक कीजिए, जब तक कि आप शांतचित्तता की अवस्था को ना पा लें। उसके बाद सीधे गॉड (ईश्वर) से अपनी समस्या के समाधान के संबंध में पूछें। इस अवस्था में जो आपको जानना चाहिए वह आप जान सकते हैं।
सबसे पहले साधारण समस्याओं का जवाब पाने के लिए प्रयास कीजिए। जब आपको यह समझ आए कि आपका इंट्यूशन अचूक काम कर रहा है। उसके बाद अपेक्षाकृत बड़ी समस्याओं के समाधान की ओर जाएं। मिसाल के तौर पर आपके सामने कामकाज संबंधी दो विकल्प हों और दोनों आपको उतने की आकर्षक लग रहे हैं। जाहिर है, वे दोनों-के-दोनों तो आपके लिए सही नहीं हो सकते। होगा तो एक ही सही। तब आप अपने इंट्यूशन के जरिए यह जानने की कोशिश कीजिए कि आपके लिए दोनों में से क्या मुफीद होगा।

How to Develop Intuition
by: Paramhansa Yogananda •
Paramhansa Yogananda, Paramahansa YoganandaAn article by Paramhansa Yogananda from the October 1939 Inner Culture Magazine
Intuition is that directly perceiving faculty of the soul which at once knows the truth about anything. Unless you have the power of intuition, you cannot possibly know Truth. It is the knowing power of the soul without the help of the senses or the mind. Intuition can give you knowledge about things which your senses and understanding can never give. Intuition does not depend upon any outside data whatsoever.
Intuition Means Soul-Perception
Intuition means “soul-perception.” It shows the difference between true and false reasoning. Errors are made by people who fail to distinguish between a real “hunch” or intuition, and their conceptions born of intellect, experience, or blind belief.
Many books and courses of study are prescribed for students in school, but nothing is taught them about concentration and the development of the sixth sense–the all-knowing faculty of intuition. Many people make mistakes in everything, from the study of health and business up to the study of philosophy and religion. Thousands of people make wrong investments and take wrong paths because their minds are not scientifically guided by intuition.
By the development of intuition one can outgrow the law of cause and effect in one’s own life. Intuition tunes the mental radio so that it can intercept all vibrations of future happenings which otherwise are deflected by diverse currents.
Developing Intuition
Pure reason and calm feeling lead to intuition. Therefore, the first requisite in developing it is to calmly reason and calmly feel everything. Intuition is developed by exercising common sense, daily introspection and analysis, depth of thought and continued activity in one direction, calmness, and, best of all, by meditation, holding to its calm after-effects. This is the only way. You then begin to perceive everything which is within as well as without.
If you can produce a perfect state of calmness in concentration and meditation, when you have a deep problem to solve, you will be able to solve it. If you hold to the calmness that comes after meditation, then you will be guided aright. Intuition guides your reason. When you have developed intuition, you will stand firm in your knowledge, though the whole heavens and the universe rise up to defeat you. Whenever you want to intuitively solve a problem, first go into deep meditation or silence. Do not think of your problem during meditation, but meditate until you feel that a sense of calmness fills the inner recesses of your body, and your breath becomes calm and quiet. Then ask God to direct your intuition so that you may know what you should do.
First, try to find out the truth about simple problems; then, when you find your intuition working infallibly, use it in finding the solution to big problems. For example, suppose two propositions are given you about a business matter; both propositions seem very attractive, but both cannot be right for you. You are obliged to decide between them, and you can decide rightly by your intuitive sense. Supermen continually use their intuition in everything they do, and thus accomplish the seemingly impossible.

4 Ways to Tap Into Your Intuition
:: by
Karen Horan
It’s almost a cliché: The telephone rings and you intuitively know who it is before answering.
Intuition often shows up this way, as a fleeting insight we'll probably dismiss as coincidence — or write off as “just imagination.”
But as Albert Einstein once said, “Imagination is everything. It is the preview of life’s coming attractions.”
Experts in intuitive counseling say you can learn to develop your intuition and capture those insights to help you make decisions in your personal life — such as whether to agree to a blind date.
“Everyone has intuition. The more you acknowledge it, the stronger and more accurate it gets,” says professional spiritual and medical intuitive Marla Mitchell.
Professional intuitives use intuition to perceive information about you and provide guidance. A medical intuitive further specializes in perceiving the physical health of the body and internal systems.
A surprising number of business leaders also use intuition to help them make business decisions. In a poll conducted by PRWeek and Burson-Marsteller, the majority of the 252 CEOs surveyed said they were likely to rely on their intuition when making business decisions. It’s something to consider next time you’re debating whether to sign off on a new ad campaign or hire a candidate who sent a bland resume but knocked your socks off in the interview.
“I’ve come to accept that my own intuition is one of many skills I can call upon in my business when needed,” says Christen Resmo, president and CEO of Benchmark Coaching, a Denver-based career coaching firm.
Four ways to strengthen your intuition
“With practice, you start noticing the quiet voice within,” explains David Stevens, professional intuitive and founder of Yoga of the Mind, a meditation and intuition training service. “Some see flashes of pictures. Others have certain feelings. Some just have a pure knowingness.”
Mitchell and Stevens recommend these four techniques to help you tap into and trust your intuition.
1) Meditate
“Meditation helps you to get quiet and be in the present moment,” Mitchell explains. “The key to increasing your intuitive awareness is to stay very present. Intuition lives in the present.”
At the heart of any meditation method is the practice of quieting the mind, which can help you increase your awareness of your intuitive sense.
“Meditation creates the best access to intuition,” says Stevens, a student of meditation for over 35 years.
You can learn meditation skills in a class (Shambhala Sun magazine offers a great directory) or with a meditation instruction DVD or CD. Stevens says meditating for just 15 minutes a day can offer benefits.
2) Do a blind reading
Stevens recommends practicing what he calls “blind readings.” Here’s how they work:
1. Sit down at a writing table with three blank index cards.
2. Think about a decision you are currently grappling with and write three solutions for it, one on each card.
3. Turn the cards blank-side-up, shuffle them and place them face-down on a table.
4. Run your hands over the cards and notice the feeling of each card.
5. Assign a percentage to each card based on how powerfully you’re drawn to it.
6. Turn the cards over and take note of the answer with the highest percentage.
Two years ago, Stevens and his wife used a blind reading to help them decide whether to cancel a big trip they had planned. The vacation was to begin right around the time a work-related project of his wife’s was to be completed. But the project started late, and it looked like the project would reach a critical point during their vacation.
Rather than canceling the vacation, the couple did a blind reading. They labeled the first card “Shorten the trip,” the second card “Do the trip as planned,” and the third card “Cancel the trip.” They each did a separate blind reading; both felt the strongest pull toward the card labeled “Do the trip as planned.”
They kept their vacation plans. As it turned out, the critical aspects of the project were completed a couple of days before the trip. Stevens and his wife enjoyed their vacation without distraction.
3) Play red-light green-light
Fun and spontaneity can help you develop intuition. Mitchell recommends this take on a classic childhood game:
1. Imagine a traffic light. Picturing the red light indicates “no” and the green light indicates “yes.”
2. Ask yourself questions or make statements that have true / false or yes / no answers, and notice, in your mind’s eye, what color the stoplight turns after each statement. Start by simply saying your name (for example, “I am Karen”). Then, call yourself by a different name (for example, “I am Bob”) and watch in your mind’s eye to see if the colors change.
After you get the hang of this game, try it in situations where you don’t know the answer.
“Games like this help increase your trust in your own intuitive abilities,” Mitchell explains.
4) Learn more through readings and classes
Mitchell and Stevens agree that you can develop your intuition by having readings done by professional intuitives, and by taking classes.
Resmo, Benchmark Coaching CEO, says classes that teach how to develop intuition let her practice tapping into her intuitive side in a nonjudgmental environment. “I could simply allow my thoughts and impressions to flow,” she explains. "My guesses and hunches were spot-on accurate about 75 percent of the time.”
