The Paradox of Paradoxical Paradoxism
One essential quality of paradox is that it accommodates multiple and even contradictory truths. We often tell the Hindu parable of the blind people and the elephant. And so each of them really committed to what they had experienced, started to get into conflict with one another as they described what they experienced. The aha here is that if each of them had paused to listen to oneAnother, to understand what the others had seen and experienced, they would be able to get a better sense of the overall holistic picture.
