The coex- istence of seeming opposites, the irresolvability of the paradox, and all that. It's like how a Zen master from the Bronx should talk: "Does a hot dog have Buddha nature? Go figure."
Tom T: THe ability to hold that full paradox of "on this hand and then on that hand" is the awakening. That is the paradox of Brahman. No problemo. When the fullness of both hands is comprehended they merge into the bliss of being awake. That is the full range of the way it is. It is both, it is either and it is neither all at the same time.
