Kitaro's Absolute

[Jakob]

“The absolute affirms itself through its own self negation.”
Nicely does away with any Hegelian notions.
But what does it add to philosophic understanding?

First, of course, is it this Kitaro: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kitaro_Nishida

Or the Japanese recording artist?

We'll need a context. Or, sure, someone can try to convince me that a context isn't really necessary at all to make this true absolutely.

But if it is necessary, what particular absolute affirming itself in what sense by way of it's own negation.
