Insight is that mental (or inward) activity by which the mind grasps the intelligible connections between things that previously had appeared merely disparate. This act of understanding “sees” a pattern in data, where “seeing” is only a metaphor from physical sight. The Transfiguration of Jesus is a grace-filled insight into life's meaning and purpose. The story of Charles Goodyear, the inventor of the vulcanization process is an example of how insight operates.
