“Truth depends on an encounter with something
that forces us to think and to seek the truth.” (14)
“if the resonance has both objective and subjective conditions,
what it produces is of an altogether different nature:
the Essence, the spiritual Equivalent….that breaks with the subjective chain.” (154)
