We associate Light to
Knowledge (to the point of saying that so-and-so has a some lights on
Trigonometry).
Here, however, the author associates Light to Non-knowledge. Because
in light - first light, undecided and primordial - the Enlightened is
not so; in the very light under which he knows not whether he knows.
Only in the course of failures experienced with eyes wide open does
the Enlightened one - who is not Enlightened – learn that - under a
second Light - if non-knowledge knows, it is, after all, the summit of
knowledge.
And thus he returns to primordial Light, to enjoy the incomparable
beauty of incompleteness.
How to thank him for making us share this experience? |
