does the word 'desire' have negative overtones for you?

Thank you rie for posting. I already stumbled over Ken Wilber when I saw a video where he points out the very essence of Kant's epistemology. There was also a discussion about solipsism where truesimultaneity made the same point like Wilber in the video.

The Paradox of Solipsism

Psychologist Erich Fromm gives the answer for me when he writes:

Thought can only lead us to the knowledge that it cannot give us the ultimate answer. The world of thought remains caught in the paradox. The only way in which the world can be grasped ultimately lies, not in thought, but in the act, in the experience of oneness.

Albert Schweitzer meant something similar when he said that rationalism can just give us the knowledge that it cannot give us the last answer to our questions.
