Example text
The third stage corresponds to wisdom or total knowledge (sarvajnata). Movement from the second stage to the third is non-conscious, so there exists no point in time and space where we could say the change took place. Mäll simply notes: “we might say that prajna appears by itself” (Mäll 1968: 62). Kristeva incorporates the zerologic subject into her semanalytical model. Kristeva’s model of systematic, transformative and paragrammatical practices can be substituted with the Sanskrit concepts drsti (theory, gaze), yoga (change) and sunyata (emptiness).
In other words, only in poetic language and literary praxis does language become manifested as infinity. In practice this means that literature is prioritized over other artistic practices, and the privileged tool for the study of poetic language, semanalysis, over other approaches. 2. A literary text has a dual nature: writing/reading. A text is a reading/writing machine, with one of its products being the reader and another the writer (see also Sollers 1968b: 89–92). The text thus becomes a quasi-metaphysical concept.
Sunyavada means becoming free by transcending negation and affirmation. The road of zero is found when one is liberated from the conflicts and pain of the world in a kind of a dissolution process. In addition to the model of the zerologic subject, Mäll presents a cognitive model that has three stages: prelogical thinking (avidya), logical thinking (viljana) and postlogical thinking (prajna). The third stage corresponds to wisdom or total knowledge (sarvajnata). Movement from the second stage to the third is non-conscious, so there exists no point in time and space where we could say the change took place.
