Guest guest Posted July 26, 2009 Report Share Posted July 26, 2009 Words are endlessly referring to other words which are abstractions of their referents (objects), which means that words utimately tell us nothing real. What is real can only be intuited, or apperceived , or whatever abstraction we call It. It cannot be known or described in words. The closest we can come is through words that refer to what IT is not. " It " is only a word referring to " nothing perceiveable nor conceivable " .

The closest we can come is through words that refer to what IT is not. " It " is only a word referring to " nothing perceiveable nor conceivable " . Indeed. That which is not perceived, and is all that is perceived. That which is not conceived, and is not outside of conceptualizings. That which neither is nor isn't. That which neither is nor isn't conceptualized. That which is endlessly chattered about, without anything being said. - Dan - Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
