Abstract
“Intellectual intuition,” which Kant only attributed to God, is practical (self-) relation according to the maxim: “doing so, makes it so.” Absolute spirit is the overall form of self-knowledge, i.e. of what it is to be a personal subject. It is actualized at first in religious forms that separate a divine form conceptually from the transcendental I—such that critical philosophy must “reconciliate” the split and “sublate” the possible wrong readings.
