{∅, {∅}, {∅, {∅}}} : Rage Against the Meat Grinder

In Dresden, while busy with the reflections that issued in the World as Will and Idea, S. had studied the Latin translation of the Persian version of the Upanishads made by Anquetil Duperron, and found there views congenial with his own. One was a conviction of the underlying unity of all things, and the illusory character of individuality, even of one's own individuality. 'That art thou' is written on the face of everything we meet. Kant's doctrine of transcendental idealism seemed to Schopenhauer to confirm this thought, for, since space and time are the principles of individuation, if they are subjective creations of the intellect, so is individuality. Space and time are the many-colored glass that stains the white radiance of eternity. Once this glass is broken, once the veil of Maya (illusion) is rent, there is seen to be no difference between a thing that exists here and now and another thing that exists at some remote place in space and time. All reality is a single striving.


Can this idea be applied to math too?If I were to study,say,calculus,would I be gaining knowledge of,say,topology too-in a roundabout way?
