[QUOTE="Ambarsaria, post: 162683, member: 14194"] Brother Vouthon some thoughts on my reading of Cardinal Cusa's writing. I mean no dis-respect or any mal-intent just trying to learn with questions and discourse. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "...In all faces, the Face of faces is veiled as a riddle. Howbeit unveiled it is not seen, until, above all faces, a man enter into a [I][U]certain secret and mystic silence[/U][/I], [I][COLOR=blue]How could secret and mystic silence be identifiable in the first place as referenced and secondly stated or expressed![/COLOR][/I] where there is no knowing or concept of a face. [I][COLOR=blue]You cannot enter complete darkness or enter complete brightness. Those are death and life for me without any ifs or butts about these. If you enter you cannot leave or if you are outside you cannot enter.[/COLOR][/I] This mist, cloud, darkness or ignorance, into which he that seeketh thy Face entereth, when he goeth beyond all knowledge and concept, is the state below which Thy Face cannot be found, [I][U]except veiled[/U][/I]; [I][COLOR=blue]Here the respectful cardinal found a way to come out of the hollow and write about it. He is trying to describe which he could not possibly if he experienced.[/COLOR][/I] but that [I][U]very darkness revealeth[/U][/I] Thy Face to be there beyond all veils. [I][COLOR=blue]Very darkness to me seems just dusk or twilight described and as infinitely away from the end as when so from the beginning.[/COLOR][/I] Hence I observe how needful it is for me to enter into the [I][U]darknesss [/U][/I]and to admit the coincidence of opposites, beyond all grasp of reason, and [I][U]there to seek the Truth[/U][/I], where Impossibility meeteth us..." [I][COLOR=blue]Again in all humbleness the Cardinal is just trying to illustrate twilight and dusk and extrapolating to darkness and what it beholds![/COLOR][/I] [B][I]- Cardinal Nicolas of Cusa,[/I][/B] [B][I](1401 – 1464) Catholic mystic[/I][/B] ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Regards. [B][U]PS[/U]:[/B] Somehow this reminded me of these songs, [URL]http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_detailpage&v=gmT8AeU2xKk[/URL][COLOR=Black] [URL]http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_detailpage&v=8Pa9x9fZBtY[/URL] [U][URL]http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_detailpage&v=hOMd7CSt0KU[/URL][/U] [/COLOR] [/QUOTE]
