VERIFICATION OF INTUITIVE STATEMENTS For the person who had the intuitive knowledge, he/she does not need to verify because of the clarity that it brings. They will instantly know that has come from cosmic source. Here are the qualities of intuitive knowledge, which is also called revelation or Veda: 1. CLARITY: It brings absolute clarity. 2. BREVITY: it is harp and to the point, like the Vedic Mahavakyas. 3. SELF ILLUMINOUS: It is self explanatory and does not need further interpretation. 4. PROFOUND: It amazes the receiver also who feels in wonder how this has come. He will be a pleasant witness to the happening and feels as a conduit for Divine knowledge flow. Then the question comes when somebody claims to have a revelation, how to determine the truthfulness in the statements. Here are the ways to separate truth from false claims of intuitions: 1. It comes from a person of character. Since purity is a requirement for cosmic knowledge revelation, this is an absolute requirement. 2. The person should be functioning beyond the senses with humility. 3. Statements do not contradict existing earlier knowledge but only builds on it. 4. The truth is verifiable. 5. That knowledge is freely available to all without commercial nature. In addition to these it should satisfy one of these three pramanas 1. Sastra pramana 2. As followed by pious people 3. Atma pramana (when Consciousness is mature). A statement of revelation could be partially true and partially false depending on the degree of purity. If somebody has 80% purity, their intuitive statements are 80% truthful. All harm done to the world, all religious killings result from these partial impurities. Hence we should use our sense of discrimination to separate truth from falsehood and only take in the truth.
