To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Bain means a change from the cognition of the extended to a cognition of the unextended. But the question arises, what is a cognition ? and what is the meaning of a cognition changing its state 1 Does a cognition remain the same cognition when a cognition of the subjective aspect as of the objective aspect of any fact? The word " un- extended" is a negative word; it has no positive meaning, and declares that a certain substantive or noun is not amicable with a certain other word, " extended," a...s thus " unextended cognition ;" that is to say, the word " extended " is not applicable to the word " cognition." Again, if we are to speak of " the unextended," we have an objectivised abstraction apparently referring to some entity which has no existence. Dr. Bain seems to have adopted this method of expressing himself, not from pursuing the paths of science, but from sitting at the feet of theologians : — " By various theologians heaven has been spoken of as not a place, but a date ; and this is the only phrase that I can find suitable to describe the vast, though familiar and easy, transi- tion from the material or extended to the immaterial or un- extended side of our being." "We desire to know what it is which undergoes transition, and what is meant by the process called transition.
