Revelation

A concept of religious idealist philosophy signifying supersensuous direct perception of truth accessible only to the chosen at a moment of mystic enlightenment. Idealist philosophers connected with Revelation are striving for truth and good. For those to whom Revelation is not accessible truth becomes an object of faith. Science rejects such an explanation, because it associates Revelation with blind faith in the supernatural. Revelation should be distinguished from intuition.
