Definition
Essence, Form, is a fundamental attribute/property of Reality and the Source of the Reality, the fundamental entity. It represents the phenomenological aspect of Reality. How "everything that is" exists. Essence / Form is the product of the sub process of Evolution, where the incessant inner interaction between of two aspects of the Derived Sources, the Derived Agents / Forces and Derived Acted / Fields, produces the Complex Events, the Derived Action, the complex forms of Existence. Essence / Form express itself in the causal, spatial and temporal dimensions, and is strictly related to the basic concepts of emergence and reification (what exists is real, has a form and belongs to the Universal Reality, and, symmetrically, what is real exists with a form, both in the physical and cognitive sense). In this system of knowledge, Essence and Form are considered synonyms.
Common definition
In philosophy, essence is the attribute or set of attributes that make an entity or substance what it fundamentally is, and which it has out of necessity, and without which it loses its identity. Essence is in contrast to accident: a property that the entity or substance has contingently, without which the substance can still maintain its identity. The term essence (Greek τί ᾖν εἶναι, ti en einai, lat. Essentia), according to the Aristotelian conception, means "what for which a certain thing is what it is, and not another thing". The essence therefore lies to indicate those determinations of a thing, specified in its "definition", which constitute its nature (or "species" in Aristotelian terms); that psychologically speaking (see modern evolutionary epistemology) corresponds to the particular vision of reality determined by our mental categories: the "image apparatuses of the world". (Link to Wikipedia page: Essence).
Description
All that exists, but the Primary Source, has a form, or better, happens with a form. Even in the case of the more stable processes, the essence, the form of the objects of the world changes incessantly (incessant evolutive mutation) in the phenomenical interaction with the whole, within the evolutive flux that leads the Universe towards increasing level of Complexity. The only entity which existence is without form, without essence, is the Elementary Field, in its state of minimum organization, that can be defined the ""without form"", all potential. It represents the substrate of the Forms, that shows themselves as Action organized in Information (pattern of Organization of the Relations between Events.
All the Structures of Information and the Forms that compose the Reality (derived entities) have the property of "derived existence", as various organizations of the events that build the Elementary Action . All derived entities are endowed with the property that we call Essence, which represents the way they exist. In other words, we can define Essence as the "existential form of a Structure or a Form, an object in / of the Universe.
