Immanuel Kant distinguishes between Direct Mystical Experience (DME) and Indirect Mystical Experience (IME). DME is "direct experience of supersensible entities through a special faculty of non-sensible intuition." IME is "(IME) The indirect experience of a supersensible entity through the perception of something sensible—such as an image or a feeling—that is caused by that supersensible entity." DMEs may be distinguished between DMEns and DMEs. DME Non Sensible is "The direct experience of a supersensible entity by means of nonsensible intuition" while DME Sensible is "The direct sensible experience of a supersensible entity that has assumed a physical form."[1]
