Our instinct changes with age and maturity. We know it is not just sixth sense. How much of the instinct is based on knowledge probably is what makes a person Scientific or Superstitious? Does instinct have varied proportions of Gut feeling and Knowledge at different times or is the proportion often the same?

At first you must look at the impulse of attraction to select without fear. Spontaneous. Your innate learning kicks in automatically to make the experience more than gut. Your mind feels the attraction to generate spontaneous and is usually correct, the discipline to continue the choice is what is learned. We let go of spontaneous as we get older but the sixth sense never leave us. What you learn is categorized and the need to explore is less. Superstitious is fear. Scientifice is learning. Yes

Instinct is not based on our experiences or learning. It is a gift, and some have more instinct that others. Even animals have instinct, and that saves their lives in times of danger, in the jungle.

I disagree. In nature, maximum animals have the ability to learn. people are exceptionally adapt at this. If we operated on organic instinct on my own we'd have not had the skill to create civilization as we've. seem lower back by using historic previous...we as a species have grown lots. no longer in straightforward terms on a technological plane, yet on an inventive, emotional, psychological plane too. those are not instinctual characteristics. besides, regardless of instinct we do perform on, nature did no longer unavoidably supply us. We found out them from nature, and included them as subconscious/ fastened action development/ instinctual (regardless of label you want to grant it) behaviors. nevertheless, those "instincts" do no longer administration our every day lives...our ideas does (everywhere which would be). nevertheless, some argue that our ideas and thoughts are no longer something better than a neurological reaction (in-positioned/out-positioned) to the ambience around us. so a techniques as blunders..human beings repeat a similar blunders persistently lower back by using fact the consequences of those strikes are not stable adequate to inhibit them from doing the habit lower back. by using this, regardless of you hit upon as a mistake, won't unavoidably be one the guy who's curiously making one. it is likewise conceivable that no person has unavoidably strengthened the thought "you're making a mistake via doing this." With happiness in an environment. If a place is making you depressing, yet no longer others...this environment basically won't be precise for you. it is greater proper to go away a bad concern than to stick around and notice what happens.

What you call as instinct here seems to be the intuitive capability within us. Well, it is deepening of perception due to conscious awareness that improves it within us with age and maturity. And more than often it 'modifies' our earlier knowledge acquired from experiences. The proportions are relative to the level of awareness that we 'maintain' despite having acquired the deep capability of perception. Many people are not aware of their own capabilities, and so call it by various names, & also , even randomly 'recognising' such passing flashes of perception !

Nothing at all. I don't believe our instincts are based from what we experience or learn, what we learn are facts of life.
Instincts on the other hand, are inherent in us. Some people have strong instinctive tendencies, some people don't.

No, I disagree with you. I believe that our instinct is 100% sixth sense. We simply learn how to trust in it and tune into it more the older we get.

I think you've misused the term "instinct".
A spawning salmon is consider a demonstration of instictual behaviour. There is no experience or learning required for the instinct.

I'd say 60% is from past experience and 40% is just a gut feeling.
