How do we know for sure that insights aren't just another human phenomenon.

This may sound very childish, but yeah, you can think I'm new here. How do we know that Non-Duality, these insights aren't just another psychological phenomenon, just another of brain's trick,not just another philosophical theory?

It is because "human" or "psychological phenomena" doesnt really mean anything. Yeah sure, you can label these insights however you want but that doesnt make them less valid or more valid. 

This would imply that there is a line between objectivity and subjectivity, which there isnt, there is only first person experience. All of reality is a "mental phenomena" if you think about it. 

"Psychological" is not something you can ground truth in. You are not fundamentally "human", you are fundamentally "Universe". Watch Leos videos about the Brain. Really really big and tricky thing to untangle
