There would have been no need to say " Absolute " if we had not first

said " relative. " But by the time we discover ourselves, we have already

said " relative, " so we must persevere and say " Absolute. " That is,

because we find ourselves in sin and sorrow, we must go the apophatic

way to the other pole, to the Transcendent. It is only when we have

found our root there, that we can realize that it is that very Reality

Itself which is present in, even as, all this.

 

This return to the world, to the relative, to the finite, is what I am

calling the resurrection of the body in its trans figured state.

Ascending to the Absolute and descending from the Absolute are both the

same as remaining in the Absolute (cf. John 3:13).
