Charles Robert Anon – Identity of Being and Not-Being

[BNP/E3, 22 – 97]

 

Identity of Being and Not-Being.

 

Pure Being (that is, substance) is that beyond which, outside which nothing can be conceived. Now, that beyond which nothing can be conceived is unbounded, indeterminate and therefore inconceivable, for we can only conceive things in so far as we determine them. Now that which is inconceivable is that in which nothing can be conceived. But that in which nothing can be conceived is negation, not-Being. Therefore Pure Being = Pure not-Being.

Tennemann on German philosophy

Schopenhauer more or less.

__________

Simile of “substance and shadow.” The realities (secondary) are will (“substance”) and idea (“light”), (but a light from within, created by the substance) the shadow they produce is the body. This is not a dualism; for the body is hold to be but a phainomenon. On the other hand neither is there a dualism of idea and of will, for these two, being of the same nature cannot constitute a duality. They are one.

___________

At the center of a sphere like a light within a globe casting outside the indefinite shadow of that sphere.
