ABSTRACT
This chapter offers insight into what looking at the emergence of intuition in the practice of art has to offer professionals in business as well as in other fields. It shows that intuition is defined in its broadest sense and most original way as “direct knowing,” which presents an opportunity to reconcile conflicting interpretations by focusing on their intersections and interrelations instead of their differences. In Eastern philosophy, intuition is mostly linked with religion and spirituality and has various meanings according to different spiritual texts. Certain views of the various Eastern philosophies differ radically, yet, most Eastern philosophies share a specific conception of God and the cosmos. The artists added the experience of a feeling in the spine, the heart, the shoulders, the throat, and activity in the mind’s eye when experiencing intuition. Intuition on the mental level often comes into awareness through images or words in the mind, or what is called “inner vision.”
