Noumena

In Kantian philosophy, phenomena are objects as they appear to us in experience, while noumena are objects as they exist independently of our perception.

Noumenon

(In Kantian philosophy) a thing as it is in itself, as distinct from a thing as it is knowable by the senses through phenomenal attributes.

Nun

The letter Nun נ is life in movement, the “fish” or living power of sexuality. As already mentioned, the fish resides in our sexual waters. By harnessing that force, we can achieve the “second birth.” Jesus spoke often of the “living water.”
