In the tussle between the rational mind and the intuitive mind, it is the former that often wins - not because that is better than the latter, but because it is most often sought after and respected. The intuitive mind, is not negated, but not sufficiently respected! Intuition does not follow the logic and pattern of the rational thought. Neither are proofs for an intuition, often considered rational. Left to defend its own ideas, the intuitive mind does not argue. It feels! That's where it 'loses' to the 'thinking' mind! This is the case not just in academia, but in life as a whole! However, intuition is not a substitute to reason; but it surely does complement it!
Coming from Albert Einstein, there has to be some truth in this observation!
