[PUZZLE] #107 - Green - Blockword

Text:

1. A false God A. Suffering
2. Against B. Indigo
3. Illuminate C. The self
4. Panache D. Waterfall

How long have we sought the truth?

(Signed Aiko)

Note: There is a Jack of Diamonds Bottom Right. Also if you look at the background, notice in the corners the greyed out areas. To me this looks like the edges of some words that when you put the whole card set together spell something out. I've noticed it on a few cards so far....

Good spot! I've got three like that, though one of them's the Whipsmart Wordsearch card.

Time to start another thread?

Edit I just noticed all the cards I have with greyed areas are also the ones with card deck numbers and symbols. This the same with yours?

Daffy, how did you get the answer for C? I'm not making the connection (aside from the obvious that the other answers seem to fit)...

That is basically how I got it, by fitting in the rest of the answers and assuming it must be right. I did confirm the answer before I posted it though, by looking it up on Wikipedia:

Wikipedia wrote:

The term atman (or atma) [...] is a fundamental concept to both the Hindu and Buddhist traditions, often roughly translated as self, soul, or ego.

Awesome, thanks. I should've thought to check the Wikipedia. I couldn't find it in any "regular" dictionaries.

I came up with the same answer but then I wondered if that was the final answer. Could the lighter squares be used for anything? Could they tell us how many? But I couldn't see anything as obvious as the dark squares. I'm still in some doubt whether it is a one word answer.

I found atman in the New Shorter Oxford English Dictionary which was close enough.
