Geydar Jamal — Book Gardens And Wastelands, p. 330 (English)

Dugin believes that whole my idea and my worldview still without any single addition fits into the chapter “Absolute” from the book “Orientation-North”. When someone says that there is a Jamal’s doctrine of metaphysics, he replies: “Yes, Yes, I remember chapter “Absolute”, I read”

What kind of idea it was? It hit me in my heart when I was lying down staring at the starry sky and suddenly I realized That If I know about infinity then I’m something different in correlation to it, in correlation to infinity. Because identity cannot look at itself. Identity is equal to itself and cant be an idea about itself. If it is an identity then it just coincides in a kind of apophatic nothingness.

Even Hegel needed two sides of idea — idea of being and idea of nothingness merged in one, so there could be a differentiation between being and nothingness, thesis and antithesis, but it is no longer an identity.

If we speak about clear identity it can’t be aware of itself. To be aware about something you should be something different in correlation to this something. And I am different in correlation to Absolute and I am not part of him, which disappears in him, even I will disappear in him later. But at the current moment, this second, when I think about him, I am not identical to him, and this changes everything, because in this case Absolute is no longer absolute. If Absolute is not absolute, then he is not a true infinity, I limit him. I limit him with my knowledge about him, with my contemplation of him. If so, then Absolute should be in some other place, not where I can perceive him. He should be where I can’t look and where I can’t see him. Like an eye which sees everything but doesn’t see itself. But if it doesn’t see itself, then this eye is an absolute, or rather the first image of that absolute which truly does not allow anything other than itself to be. The absolute that the eye sees is an illusion, and the eye is reality.
