Tertium-Organum-by-P-D-Ouspensky

a magnitude can be greater or lesser than itself. 
The absurdity of both these propositions shows that they cannot refer to our world. 
Naturally, 
absurdity
does not, by itself, indicate that a thing belongs to 
noumena.
But 
the fact of belonging to noumena will necessarily be expressed for us in absurdity. To 
hope to find anything in the world of causes that would be 
logical 
from our point of 
view is just as useless as to think that the 
world of things
can exist in accordance with 
the laws of the 
world of shadows,
or stereometry in accordance with the laws of 
planimetry. 
To master the main principles of 
higher logic
means to master the 


fundamentals of the understanding of higher-dimensional space or the world of the 
miraculous. 
In order to come to a clear understanding of the relations of the many-dimensional 
world, we must get rid of all the 'idols' of 
our world
(to use Bacon's expression); in 
other words we must get rid of all the obstacles to a 
right 
perception and thinking. And 
above all we must have an inner kinship with the world of the miraculous. 
In order to come to the understanding of the three-dimensional world, a two­
dimensional being must already 
be three-dimensional, 
and then get free of its 'idols', 
i.e. of its accepted ways of feeling and thinking, which have become axiomatic and are 
creating for it the illusion of two-dimensionality. 
What exactly must a two-dimensional being get rid of? 
First of all - and this is most important - it must get rid of the conviction that 
what it 
sees and senses actually exists; and as a result it must become aware of the 
incorrectness of its representation of the world, and then of the idea that the real, new 
world must exist in some quite different forms, new, incomparable, incommensurable 
with the old. Further, the two-dimensional being must get rid of the assurance that its 
divisions
are correct. It must understand that things which appear to it totally different 
and separated one from another, may be a part of some 
whole
incomprehensible to it, 
or that they may have much in common, although this may not be noticed; whereas 
things which seem one and indivisible, are actually infinitely complex and manifold. 
The mental growth of the two-dimensional being must proceed along the line of the 
recognition of those common properties of objects, 
unknown to it before,
which result 
from their similar origin or similar functions, incomprehensible on a plane. 
Once the two-dimensional being has recognized the possible existence of 
common 
properties, formerly unknown to it, in objects which appear different, it has already 
come near to our understanding of the world. It has come near to our logic, has begun 
to understand the use of a 
collective noun, 
i.e. a word which is not a proper name but a 
common noun; in other words, a word expressing a concept. 
The 'idols' of the two-dimensional being which obstruct the development of its 
consciousness are 
proper names
which itself it gives to all surrounding objects. For it 
every object has its own proper name, corresponding to its own representation of that 
object; it has no common nouns corresponding to concepts. It is only by getting rid of 
these 'idols' and understanding that nouns may be both proper and common that it will 
be able to advance further, to develop mentally, to 


approach the human understanding of the world. Otherwise, the simplest sentence, such 
as:
