The Nature of Intuition | Perilous World Radio 10/31/25

David Masters reflects on insights shared by his father, Roy Masters, regarding the profound impact of childhood programming on our beliefs and perceptions. He underscores how these ingrained lessons significantly influence our actions and convictions throughout life. David argues that individuals often defend not the objective truth but rather the "code" instilled in them through societal and familial teachings, which shape their understanding of reality. He illustrates this concept through a clip that discusses mathematical truths, demonstrating how people may cling to learned beliefs even when confronted with opposing viewpoints. Essentially, our subconscious acts as the foundational software that governs our conscious thoughts and arguments, which may not always align with the objective truth. David also explores the nature of intuition, suggesting that every human possesses it from birth. However, he notes that intuition can diminish if not nurtured, likening it to a muscle that atrophies without use. He highlights the dual perspectives we can adopt—one being the "snake’s eye view" that is grounded in everyday life, and the other being an elevated awareness that transcends traditional reasoning. This higher perspective allows us to "know" intuitively, independent of past experiences or knowledge.
