But, perhaps, what is at play here is not the action of Something Beyond Mind but simply the action of the unaided human mind. Why? Because, as Ikentua Refe admitted to herself, she had no apprehension of any such state of being or entity as Something Beyond Mind. True, she was inspired by ideas about That, was compelled by a inalienable commitment to It, but Its existence remained conjectural to her, at best. All her years of contemplation on the Ultimate had not yielded a sense of That, as many schools of thought claimed it could. Why not approach It, then, as a strategy of thought, an imaginative conception which may or may not correspond in any or in all its particulars to reality? The absence of That, therefore, in spite of all efforts to approach it could then be transformed, not into failure but into an enlightenment as to the independence of the mind from notions of what is fundamentally different from what the mind knows itself to be. A kind of freedom, therefore. A freedom from dependence on the unknown and the Other to provide meaning while taking advantage of the inspiring potential of the Other as an expression of the human being’s aspiration to Something that is beyond the quotidian and the everyday.
