knowledge and vision
Revelation corresponds to the extent and form of knowledge. The knowledge of Him, that you acquire at the time of your struggle and training you will realize in contemplation later. But what you contemplate of Him will be the form of the knowledge which you established previously. You advance nothing except your transference from knowledge to vision and the form is one.
