“Mi posición era terrible. Sabía que no encontraría nada por la vía del conocimiento racional, salvo la negación de la vida, mientras que en la fe no encontraría nada salvo la negación de la razón, que era aún menos plausible que la negación de la vida. De acuerdo con el conocimiento racional, la existencia es un mal, y las personas lo saben; de ellas depende no vivir, y aun así han vivido, viven, y yo mismo vivo, aunque hace tiempo que sé que la vida no tiene sentido y es un mal. De acuerdo con la fe, para comprender el sentido de la vida debía renunciar a la razón, la misma para la cual es necesario el sentido.”

Bonne lecture. Certains passages requièrent que l’on s’interroge plus longuement sur leur portée. Cela étant dit, je m’étonne de parvenir à retrouver un semblant de sens à la Vie par l’intermédiaire de la lecture de cet ouvrage, et donc de la Connaissance, tandis que l’essence même de son propos est justement que la Vérité et le Sens de la Vie n’est pas dans la Connaissance mais dans la Foi.

"I no longer had any doubts and was firmly convinced that the teachings of the faith with which I had associated myself were not all true. At one time I would have said that all of it was a lie; but now it was impossible to say this. There could be no doubt that all of the people had a knowledge of the truth, for othewise they would not be living. Moreover, this knowledge of the truth was already accessible to me; already I was living by it and could feel that this was indeed the truth; but in these teachings there was also a lie. There was no doubt about it. And everything that had previously repelled me was now vividly before me."
