The Paradox of Avasana

Dawani seems to stipulate that statements that would give rise to the paradox don't count as real statements. Sadar-Adin Dashtaki's solution shows how the paradox is generated by the clash between first order and second order truth. This logical issue though was not really at the heart of the conflict at Shiraz. When the debate turned to metaphysics, it became like a grill party in the mountains. The stakes were higher. Here the dispute was over the nature of God, and who could lay claim to being the better interpreter of Avasana.
