| Definition Of: |
ABSOLUTE
[A35/B52] Kant refers to absolute reality and knowledge, in contrast with empirical reality and empirical knowledge. To say that space and time are transcendentally ideal is to deny that they have absolute reality. To have absolute knowledge would be to know something about a thing in itself, not an appearance or object of sensible intuition.
In metaphysics , the highest or most all-encompassing reality i.e., the Unconditioned, God, Unmoved Mover, World ground, Being, the Good, Logos, One, Substance, in Chinese thought Tao (Way), in Indian thought Brahman.
