P'raps thats because K isn't just intuition? Maybe there is a 'knowing'
that is more definite than what you describe? :)

It is a 'knowing' that is experienced.
Then there is no need for questions let alone 'proofs.'
What is, is.

If you really want to 'know', look into the eyes of your fear.

He he he! ROFL! as if you'd see it with those eyes! Do you imagine it is
recognisable that way? You want evidence of the work of mystics now?
Look around you! It's in every breath you take - every touch of compassion
and love you have ever received and ever given...

lol Who does that?

No. I think you're right about that. :) So why are you here?
Do you know how much you are truly loved Samantha?
Dare to 'know'
with lots of love,
