That is what I expected. You solve the problem by a contradiction. That trick is played out. Phil. To answer transcendental questions in language that is made for immanent knowledge must assuredly lead to a contradiction. Thras. What do you call transcendental knowledge, and what immanent?
In one word, these three propositions are, for the speculative reason, always transcendent, and cannot be employed as immanent principles in relation to the objects of experience; they are, consequently, of no use to us in this sphere, being but the valueless results of the severe but unprofitable efforts of reason.
In the harvest customs of our European peasantry the corn-spirit seems to be conceived now as immanent in the corn and now as external to it. In Greek mythology, on the other hand, Demeter is viewed rather as the deity of the corn than as the spirit immanent in it.
We have rather to inquire what nature with its immanent causes can naturally bring to pass." Just as striking quotations on this subject might be made from Roger Bacon.
But among his listeners and readers was a man of very different mental constitution, not more independent or fearless, but louder and more combative, whose voice soon became heard and whose strength soon began to be felt in the long battle between the traditional and immanent inspiration, Theodore Parker.
All the Orient was immanent in her; she had the quiet, the resignation, the un-hope of the odalisque. "Samuel," she said again. "Ah, Adina!" And then, in the Circassian idiom, "Grace go before you!" Her white arm sank and the curtains swelled together behind her. Mr. Baruch took the chief of his treasures into his arms and kissed her.
Observe that all wide sight and self-command Deserts these throngs now driven to demonry By the Immanent Unrecking. Nought remains But vindictiveness here amid the strong, And there amid the weak an impotent rage. Spirit of the Pities Why prompts the Will so senseless-shaped a doing? Spirit of the Years I have told thee that It works unwittingly, As one possessed not judging.
But it may be asked, Does love to God exclude all other loves? By no means. The second commandment in the law, "Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself," is inseparable from the first. It is impossible to obey the one without obeying the other. Obedience that does not regard both is partial, and therefore futile. The reason is plain. God is immanent in creation.
In her walks to the cañon she thought much of him when he had gone. She could not put his face into the dream because he was too real and immanent. He and the dream would not blend, even though she had decided that his fresh-cheeked, clear-eyed face, with its clean smile and the yellow hair above it was almost better to look at than the face of the youth in the play.
As a matter of fact, reflexion in the nineteenth century, devoted as it has been to the evolution of society, has busied itself with hardly anything more than with the study of those immanent elements which make for morality. It is therefore not an external guarantor of morals, such as Kant thought, which is here given.
