_Philalethes_. Transcendental knowledge is knowledge which passesbeyond the bounds of possible experience, and strives to determine thenature of things as they are in themselves. Immanent knowledge, on theother hand, is knowledge which confines itself entirely with thosebounds; so that it cannot apply to anything but actual phenomena. Asfar as you are an individual, death will be the end of you. But yourindividuality is not your true and inmost being: it is only theoutward manifestation of it.
...It is not the _thing-in-itself_, but onlythe phenomenon presented in the form of time; and therefore with abeginning and an end. But your real being knows neither time, norbeginning, nor end, nor yet the limits of any given individual. It iseverywhere present in every individual; and no individual canexist apart from it. So when death comes, on the one hand you areannihilated as an individual; on the other, you are and remaineverything. That is what I meant when I said that after your deathyou would be all and nothing.
