What is the Connection Between the Tree of Life and Logic?

Abstract

In this essay, I explore the relationship between the kabbalistic Tree of Life and that of Logic. I begin defining my terms, then analyze the question posed through that of science; philosophy; art and the concept of knowledge in general. I conclude that while a unified and complete account of knowledge cannot be gained, one can get a semblance of this knowledge. This I call a tending towards infinity or more precisely – a calculus of infinity. I conjecture that this may lead to world-bettering, a wise kind of knowledge if you like that is neither of the Tree of Life nor that of the Tree of Knowledge as such, but the light itself which remains unnamable, that is to say beyond the realm of human knowledge.
