Yes, the gut or intuition is an extra sensory system of truth detection and a guiding light for one’s life if we allow it and courage to follow it. The cool thing is we can develop this even more with practices.

I’ve had a few crazy instances of precognition I assume it’s somewhat related to this but not entirely sure.

But the gut feelings or intuition in my experience is knowing something but not knowing how you know, you just know it. Its a different essence to intellectually knowing something for me.
