Do you believe paradoxes exist?

[Never_give_up]

or they are just illusions that have explanations?

Funny, I started a thread about this almost 1yr ago now. You can check it out to see the different responses. Fairly short.

Paradoxes don't exist, when you see a paradox it's because you didn't understand something; You don't have a clear enough vision 🤔.

If you get on an elevator, and you say "up, please", but then I get on the elevator and say "down please", did I just contradict you?

Does up contradict down? The nature of the reality around us is a wave-like nature, going up, then down, then up again, in and out, back and forth etc in cycles and feedback loops. Every "paradox" is experienced over time. An Infinite mind will come to know and understand the truth of every statement at some point in time, no matter how contradictory they may be to other statements, each thought can still be experienced and understood as absolutely true.

No. Not at all.

Paradox reminds me of how nature often creates similar patterns through different mechanisms.

[The Crocodile]

No, they do.

I AM a paradox 

[Atb210201]

Paradoxes are only paradoxes to a limited human mind.

In a harmonious unlimited mind (The Mind of God) there are no paradoxes; Everything is in its right place where it belongs and where it should be.

They define the limits of the structure. God is the paradox showing infinite more. When you die you become the paradox.

Well.. I do and I don't

Paaradox = something that perplexes the mind.

[Yimpa]

Paradox example: 

South Korea has the higher perspective compared to North Korea, even though South Korea is below North Korea.

Paradoxes appear from the limitations of logic and duality, grasping. "This statement is false". If you believe things exist, they exist, within that limited lense.

[Atb210201]

You can find paradoxes in these statements:

 

Everything is relative (except this statement)

Everything is False (except this statement)

Everything is wrong (except this statement)

Everything is rejected (except this statement)

Everything is a lie (except this statement)

 

But you cannot find paradoxes in these statements:

 

Everything is Absolute.

Everything is True.

Everything is Right.

Everything is Accepted.

Everything is a Truth.

 

Get the help of your logic and you'll see the first statements all defied logic and contradicted themselves; but the second statements all cannot be illogical and contradictory at the very least.

This is basic logic 101.

You can't even find logical faults in the second statements or logically disprove them.

And paradox is when something isn't logical.

In your mind. A paradox is when you try to superimpose a duality on reality and the duality doesn't seem to work. And often, paradoxes seem like paradoxes from one perspective but not another. Some people may think quantum superposition is a paradox (the particle is in different states at the same time), or the particle-wave duality ("is it a wave or a particle?"), when in reality, they just break with everyday notions of reality and the associated dualities we tend to superimpose on it.
