Approaching God through negation is one of main Plotinus' concepts. OP's post is very neo-platonic. All hyposthases are, in a way, negating One's unit, even tho they are One's emmanations. Self, as it's a microcosmos, connecting all hypostases, must negate itself to connect to itself. Please, Anon, do your homework next time you post in big boy threads.
