All of humanity’s knowledge and progress comes from Sixth Sense

From Swami Rama’s Yoga Sutra of Patanjali commentary

“We often speak of `sixth sense’ or inspiration. The sixth sense is the
moment (or flash) when the individual mind has separated from and is not
involved with the brain processes, the modifications calm down and a
message flashes through to the conscious registration centres. This may
last for only a fraction of a moment, but it is enough. All of humanity’s
knowledge and progress, whether scientific or religious, has come from
this sixth sense. In rare cases it may have been a controlled process, but
in almost all cases it is not a controlled process, as the sutras wish to
bring about. It normally comes and goes unawares. We now make it a
conscious process”
