(October 17, 2014 at 12:05 pm)One Above All Wrote: Ignoring the wall of text and focusing on the thread title, there's no such thing as "transcendental knowledge" (or "transcendental" anything, really, but that will become obvious in a second). "Transcendental" means that it transcends everything.

I think in this context 'transcendental' lacks the connotations given to it by the American Transcendentalists. I think it refers to universal knowledge that spans over and above knowledge of particulars. Pick-up?
