Intuition
Therefore, information can leak out from the unconscious not
only about emotional complexes but also about the Essence. This
is why we have intuitions sometimes about Essence. The unconscious
knows the Essence. All of the knowledge is there, but it is not
available to consciousness. And intuition is a way to have access
to some of this knowledge without having the Essence itself in
consciousness. (Essence, pg 24)

There is a deeper form of intuition that is the function of a
certain aspect of Essence. We referred to this aspect earlier
as objective consciousness or the diamond body. We also called
it the body of knowledge. This aspect has the capacity to take
facts and data, all of the different kinds of understanding about
a particular object or situation, and consider them all together,
simultaneously and instantly. (Essence, pg 24)

Essence and Intuition
However, when Essence is present in the conscious experience
of the individual, then there is no intuition and no mystery.
There is just direct perception and direct knowing - direct knowing
of Essence because there is consciousness of it, direct perception
of oneself and others because Essence has the capacities that
transcend the boundaries of time and space. (Essence, pg 24)
