- W2554431383 abstract "The conception of ‘nothingness’ or nada in the writings of John of the Cross is explored here. Though clear elements of kataphatism could be found in John of the Cross, our main focus in this chapter is apophatism in his works. The negative way of John of the Cross is nada, and it is ‘knowledge in unknowing’, where one perceives the limits of the faculties, namely, intellect, memory and will, and goes beyond them in an emptying and darkening ‘way’ of the ‘night’ which gives an idea that ‘no adequate report of its contents can be given in words’. The faculties ‘must undergo a purification of their respective apprehensions in order to reach union with God’, for ‘God has no form or image comprehensible’. The negative way in John of the Cross is ‘the nakedness of the soul bereft of all knowledge’. Though God experience is ineffable, John uses a language to bring home his intent. In this chapter we first look at the conception of ‘nothingness’ in John of the Cross and then proceed in the second part to see the paradox of language in the writings of John of the Cross, which is replete with symbolism and negations. In the third part of the chapter, we analyse the doctrine of three faculties and their darkening, while in the fourth part we take up the key idea of the ‘unknowing’ in the thought of John of the Cross. In the fifth and last part of the chapter, we consider the import of ‘silence’ that we find in John of the Cross." @default.
