Abstract
We discuss generality of inflation in the Bianchi type IX spacetime with a positive cosmological constant in terms of quantum cosmological method. It is shown that most of the classical universes which are quantum cosmologically created inflate. Probability of inflation in Hartle-Hawking’s and Vilenkin’s prescriptions is also discussed.
