490. When I ask “Do I know or do I only
believe that I am called…?’ it is no use to looking within myself.
But I could say: not only do I never have
the slightest doubt that I am called that, but there is no judgement that I
could be certain of if I started doubting that.
you might well assume that you are
called …
but how would you know?
that is how would you know what everyone
has does or will call you?
and you can call yourself whatever you like
– whenever you like
if you are saying there is no judgment that
you could be certain of –
if you started doubting that you are called
…
all you are saying is that if you were to
question this –
you can be certain of nothing
and that I think is a fair point –
if you question – how can you be sure?
and if you don’t question –
or you are not open to question –
it’s not that you are certain –
it is rather that you are stupid
