From Ignorance to Knowledge
Regarding the notion of self-knowledge or the movement from inner spiritual or philosophical ignorance to knowledge: Movement from a starting point of A to a destination point of B presupposes the existence of both A and B. But insofar as the independent existence of points apart from the whole within which they have their existence is obviously illusory, so the mind's movement from ignorance to knowledge is illusory, merely a conceptual notion of the mind in the first place. One could also point out, how can ignorance of reality be a real point within reality, which is a necessary feature of this ignorance to knowledge movement.
