A remark on the transcendental method

 We have frequently discussed the integration of transcendental philosophical consciousness (insight, self-reflection, self-transparency) and the transcendental action of consciousness upon itself. These can be likened to the stages of cognition and volition in the last section on Idea in the Logic of Concept. But what is more important is the common root of transcendental cognition and volition, which we may call transcendental power, which defying all characterizations and conceptualizations yet can manifest is many ways, its transcendental anagogic function being the invariant.  This power is be understood as self-realizing, self-conscious, self-transcending, self-generating power.  As the ground and source and root of all higher philosophical knowledge, insight and spiritual realization. This power is pure and perfect transcending itself in the fullness of its act. It is knowledge of the power of knowing and the power of knowing that knows its very power. It is the 'absolute negativity' which is the infinite fullness of being.
