Being as such (Sein   als solches  ), 7fn, 85fn, 146, 187fn, 207fn, 230 [BTJS  ]

We can immediately say that according to Heidegger, the meaning of categorial intuition is that the totality of our intentional   life is always already shaped by categorial elements, and that the relevant categorial shape of all the correlative intentional objectities is a surplus, something exceeding sensory contents. Moreover, this surplus is itself given in intuition of a peculiar kind, as discovered by Husserl  ; namely, categorial intuition. Thus, intentionality is in the end a transcendence that originally relates not   to mere sensory items but to objective (i.e., self-standing, not subjectively produced) structures that make these items appear as parts of intentional entities. Now, a priori   in intentionality is this very objective structuring that always already regulates our most original experiencing. Regionally seen, this a priori is the Being of the beings experienced by us as belonging to each of the various ontological spheres. All these regional Beings of the corresponding beings, however, must be capable of being seen from the ultimate universal perspective of some Being in general (Sein überhaupt  ) or Being as such (Sein als solches), qua a priori of the a priories. Otherwise, as Heidegger Platonically insinuates, we could not be in any position to comprehend and experience these different Beings as differing Beings. [HHRPC]
