negative knowledge, n.All

Negative knowledge (n.) is ⁠​‌​​​‌​​​‌​‌‌​​​​‌​‌​​‌‌​‌​​‌​​​​​‌‌​​‌​​​‌‌​‌‌​⁠the only spiritual knowledge that can be talked about: knowledge of the trap of useless seeking.

Negative knowledge (n.) works ⁠​‌​​​‌​​​‌​‌‌​​​​‌​‌​​‌‌​‌​​‌​​​​​‌‌​​‌​​​‌‌​‌‌​⁠like empty space — the blank page, the empty jar, the open window — whose value lies in what it lets through; but the emptiness must come first.
