The utmost limits
One way of saying this which is general enough to cover any idea it could be referring to.
Example sentence:
"The suggestion of the end of the study is that the post-modern development of the human sense of the 'UTMOST LIMIT' of coherence – namely, the incoherence of language – has rendered the incoherencies of the past particularly visible (Fisch 1999, 324)
"The acceptance of death is the acceptance of UTMOST LIMITS."
