“Cardano reasoned that the end of man is to know God and to mediate between the divine and the mortal. The {{W|rational soul}} is immortal and when permeated with {{W|Divine illumination|light}} is inseparable from God. True wisdom is gained from {{W|union with God}} and by mathematics, as God has subjected the world to mathematical law.”
