Absolute truth Quote by Sorin Cerin
“The Absolute Truth of Knowledge is precisely non-Knowledge. If this Mirror called Knowledge remains in the phase where nothing is reflected in it, then it does not have a Self anymore, it does not have any element, is as empty and sterile as if it were not. Thus the Mirror is non-Knowledge more than it is Knowledge and becomes Knowledge only when other Prints of the Matrix Words reflect in it.”
About This Quote

In simple terms: Knowledge requires reflection to be meaningful.
Key Takeaway
Knowledge is relational, not isolated.
