1difference. Compare with these cases a third case c) where the pictures in the table represent building stones drawn to scale, & the comparing has to be done with ruler and compasses. Suppose that B's task is to bring a piece of cloth of the colour of the sample. How are the colours of sample and cloth to be compared? Imagine a series of different cases: ¶ 14). A shews the sample to B, upon which B goes and fetches the material “from memory”. ¶ 15). A gives B the sample, B looks from the sample to the materials on the shelves from which he has to choose. ¶ 16). B lays the sample on each bolt of material & chooses that one which he can't distinguish from the sample, for which the difference between the sample & the material seems to vanish. ¶ 17). Imagine on the other hand that the order has been, “Bring a material slightly darker than this

2meanings in relation to words. (II 396.30) ¶ The names of the names, revealed in the scriptures, are as worthy of reverence and respect (furma) as the names which they denote. ¶ In respect of the fact that the Real (al- haqq) is the Speaker, He mentions Him- self by names. . These names them- selves have names with us in the language of every speaker. In the Arabic language the name by which He named Himself in respect of being the Speaker is “ Allah,’ in Persian “Khuday,” in Ethiopian Waq,” in the tongue of the Franks “Gabor (kraytir), and so on in every language. These are the names of those names. They are many because of the plurality of relationships. Every group venerates these names in respect of what they denote.

3an absolute sense from those who struggle in a specific and delimited sense. ¶ The “strugglers” are the people of ef- fort, toil, and putting up with difficulties. They are four kinds: Those who struggle without being delimited by anything, as mentioned in God’s words, “God has pre- ferred the strugglers over those who sit at home” (4:95). The second kind are the strugglers delimited by the path of God, ¶ as in His words, “The strugglers in the path of God” (4:95). The third kind are those who struggle in Him, as in His words, “Those who struggle in Us, surely We shall guide them on Our paths” (29:69). . . . The fourth kind are those who struggle in God “as is His due”

4damit ....« – Alles dies deutet auf einen größern Zusammenhang. ¶ 687. Statt »Ich habe ihn gemeint« kann man freilich manchmal sagen »Ich habe an ihn gedacht«; manchmal auch »Ja, wir haben von ihm geredet«. Also frag dich, worin es besteht ›von ihm reden‹! ¶ 688. Man kann unter Umständen sagen: »Als ich sprach, empfand ich, ich sagte es dir.« Aber das würde ich nicht sagen, wenn ich ohnehin mit dir sprach. ¶ 689. »Ich denke an N.« »Ich rede von N.« ¶ Wie rede ich von ihm? Ich sage etwa »Ich muß heute N. besuchen.« –– Aber das ist doch nicht genug! Mit »N.« könnte ich doch verschiedene Personen meinen, die diesen Namen haben. – »Also muß noch eine andere Verbindung meiner Rede mit dem N. bestehen, denn sonst hätte ich

5and facial expression with which I say “Yes” and “No”, alongside of the so-called mental events. – Now it may surprise us to find that although this experiment will shew us a multitude of different characteristic experiences, it will not shew us any one experience which we should be inclined to call the experience of understanding. There will be such experiences as these: I hear the word “tree” and say “Yes” with the tone of voice and sensation of “Of course”. Or I hear “corroboration” – I say to myself, “Let me see”, vaguely remember a case of helping, and say “Yes”. I hear “gadget”, I imagine the man who always used this word, and say “Yes”. I hear “Mamma”, this strikes me as funny and childish, – “Yes”. A foreign word I shall very often translate in my mind into English before answering. I hear “spinthariscope”,

6the continuation of the discussion of waystations and mutual waystations quoted above, the Shaykh clarifies the nature of some rather more complex re- lationships between the servant and the divine names. ¶ The possessor of this state has one of three situations: (1) At the meeting [be- tween him and the name in the mutual waystation] the benefit sought for the name from the servant and for the servant from the name is actualized. Then the name departs from him and returns to the Named, while the servant returns to the station from which he had emerged. ¶ (2) The divine name ordains that the servant return whence he had come, while the name accompanies him until it takes him back to his place of emergence. ¶ (3) The servant takes the divine name along with him and ascends to its Named. .. .

7of image it was you had, do you do so by, as it were, looking at the image and discovering a certain characteristic in it? (as though you had been asked by whom a picture was painted, looked at it, recognized the style, and said it was a Rembrandt.) ¶ It is easy, on the other hand, to point out experiences characteristic of remembering, expecting, etc. accompanying the images, and further differences in the immediate or more remote surrounding of them. Thus we certainly say different things in the different cases, e.g., “I remember his coming into my room”, “I expect his coming into my room”, “I imagine his coming into my room.” – “But surely this can't be all the difference there is!” It isn't all: There are the three different games played with these three words surrounding these statements. ¶ When challenged, do we understand the word “remember”, etc., is there really

8, reason will then respectively search for the primal subject which will never be a predicate, the cause which will never be a consequence, the community, the set of all the disjunctions to which it itself does not belong. This triple tendency polarises reason towards a triple primordial meaning or towards a triple unconditioned: an unconditioned in the order of categorical judgement (the first substance subject which potentially gathers in its thought everything that can be known: this is the soul), an unconditioned in the order of hypothetical judgement (the first cause of everything that has a cause: this is the world), an unconditioned in the order of disjunctive judgement (God who gathers together in himself every disjunction). Kant demonstrates in the transcendental dialectic (The critique of pure reason) that these three ideas (the soul, the world and God) are the necessary illusions on which are constructed the three

9a solid rigid line; (2) its zone of indiscernibility, relating to its diffusion throughout a microphysical fabric; (3) its zone of impotence, relatingto the flows and quanta it can only convert without being able to control or define. It is always from the depths of its impotence that each power center draws its power, hence their extreme maliciousness, and vanity. Better to be a tiny quantum flow than a molar converter, oscillator, or distributor! Returning to the example of money, the first zone is represented by the public central banks; the second by the “indefinite series of private relations between banks and borrowers”; the third by the desiring flow of money, whose quanta are defined by the mass of economic transactions. It is true that the same problems are reformulated at the level of these very transactions, in relation to other power centers. But the first zone of the power center is always defined by the State apparatus, which is the

10<bos>(233) Psychoanalytic discourse puts meaning in parenthesis and puts movement into sense. How does sense teach us? The first section will respond: by translation. What does it teach us? The second section will respond: structure. Far from being congealed, this structure is modification (third section). The last section will show how structure allows for the end of analysis. ¶ 1. Sense and teaching (36c-40a) „Let us get moving here on the business of sense, promised earlier because of its difference to meaning.‟ (36c; 479) The noumenon has led us in the preceding paragraph to the o-object; again it is philosophy that traces out a path for us towards sense. What is „sense‟? To tackle it with Heidegger‟s „leaden-footed‟ method means giving its

11of its corruption, since the Law has set down prescriptions. ¶ But it is impossible for the individuals of the cosmos to have a single constitu- tion. Since constitutions are diverse, there is in the cosmos the knower and he who knows more, the excellent and he who is more excellent. Among them is he who knows God as nondelimited, without any delimitation. Among them is he who is not able to acquire any knowledge of God without delimiting Him by attributes which negate the suggestion of temporal origination and require the perfection of Him who is described. And among them is he who is not able to acquire knowl- edge of God without delimiting Him by the attributes of temporal origination, hence he brings Him under the property of being modified by time, place, bounds, and measure. ¶ Since at the root of the creation

12And when you have to say that in the middle moment, the second phase of A child is being beaten - the one where it is the subject who is there, in the place of the child - this you only obtain in exceptional cases. The fact is that in truth the function of the phantasy… I mean in your interpretation and more especially again in the general interpretation that you will give of the structure of one or other neurosis, (which ought always, in the final analysis, be inscribed in the registers that I gave, namely: for phobia, anticipated desire, for hysteria, unsatisfied desire, for obsession, impossible desire. What is the role of the phantasy in this order of neurotic desire? Well then, truth-meaning, I have said. That means the same thing as when you mark with a capital T - a pure convention in the theory given, for example, of

13the continuation of politics by other means.” As we know, this formula is itself extracted from a theoretical and practical, historic and transhistoric, aggregate whose parts are interconnected. (1) There is a pure concept of war as absolute, unconditioned war, an Idea not given in experience (bring down or “upset” the enemy, who is assumed to have no other determination, with no political, economic, or social considerations entering in). (2) What is given are real wars as submitted to State aims; States are better or worse “conductors” in relation to absolute war, and in any case condition its realization in experience. (3) Real wars swing between two poles, both subject to State politics: the war of annihilation, which can escalate to total war (depending on the objectives of the annihilation) and tends to approach the unconditioned concept via an ascent to extremes; and limited war, which is no “less” a war,

(4) coming to be in the earth, as in His words, “He is God in the heavens and the earth” (6:3); and (5) an all-inclusive coming to be, since He is with the existent things in all their lev- els wherever they might come to be, as He explained in relation to us with His words, “He is with you wherever you come to be” (57:4).

15the first place. We have distinguished among three social machines corresponding to the savage, the barbarian, and the civilized societies. The first is the underlying territorial machine, which consists in coding the flows on the full body of the earth. The second is the transcendent imperial machine, which consists in overcoding the flows on the full body of the despot or his apparatus, the Urstaat: it effects the first great movement of deterritorialization, but does so by adding its eminent unity to the territorial communes that it conserves by bringing them together, overcoding them and appropriating their surplus labor. The third is the modern immanent machine, which consists in decoding the flows on the full body of capital-money: it has realized the immanence, it has rendered concrete the abstract as such and has naturalized the artificial, replacing the territorial codes and the despotic overcoding
