Wagner wrote this in 1813, the very year when his nephew Richard was born. . . . . It was just one year later in 1814 that Schopenhauer began to study the ‘Oupnek’hat’ and arrived at similar understanding. Wagner wrote about the “Will of the un-ground” in Hohme’s sense but also of the ‘principium individuation is’ that creates the illusion of distance and sequence, i.e., space and time, even though what is “separated” cannot be anything other than “the One”. But how can a self liberate itself and become non-selfhood or, as Wagner put it, “a Nothing that thus the eternally tranquil spirit, the silent God?” One year prior to Schopenhauer’s encounter with the ‘Oupneck’hat’ Adolph Wagner (who like young Schopenhauers admired Jakob Bohme and read Kant, Giordano Bruno and Spinosa) drew a conclusion that -- provided that one leaves God out of the equation -- comes surprisingly close to the final passage of
Schopenhauer’s ‘The World as Will and Representation’ and cites the Oupneck-hat:

As one’s self-creating and one’s willing ceases, the divine creating and willing arise: and what is without will is identical with Nothingness, which is the nature of us all; and this non-ground is God himself. As the Oupnekhat [says} : A pure heart without will


“A pure heart is without will” -- could this not almost serve as a motto of Schopenhauer’s soteriology. . . . Page 172
