CONTRADICTORY IN A BALANCE SYSTEM

The harmony of contradictions and opposites. What is the cause of the motion and development of phenomena, and is it in the world itself or outside of it, leaves one of the fundamental questions of worldview and cognition methodology.

Some respond that the universe's existence and motion necessitate a creator who directs that world, just as the presence of a clock presumes the existence of a clockmaker. The world moves in accordance with the will of a higher power, just as a clock works when its owner winds it up. The presence of the creator himself must, by the logic of such thinking, necessitate the existence of a creator of an even higher order since the existence and motion of the world presuppose a creator. We enter a fake infinity as a result of this.

The scientific worldview refrains from looking for reasons of the motion of the cosmos outside of it. They are discovered in the inconsistencies of the cosmos itself. The scientific method of approaching a research topic requires the ability to recognize its dynamic essence, which is a collection of parts that are mutually exclusive but still coexist in the same entity.

Any concrete system's evolution is ultimately influenced by interaction. Analysis demonstrates that interactions between items or the components of objects that are distinct from one another are feasible. Difference and identity both have degrees. Difference, for instance, can be important or unimportant.

An opposite—one of the mutually implied sides of a contradiction—is the extreme example of difference. Difference is the first step of an object's separation into opposites when it is forming. An object seeks, so to speak, a complement for itself in that which it is engaging with when it comes into contact. There is merely a more or less accidental external contact where there is no stable interaction.

When discussing links between phenomena that are in the growth stage, it is even more crucial to keep this in mind. There isn't a single thing in the entire world where opposing sides, elements, or inclinations cannot be found: continuity and change, the old and the new, and so on. The dialectical principle of contradiction illustrates the unity of opposites and their conflict as a dualistic relationship within the whole. The only way that opposites can clash is if they combine to form a whole in which each component is equally important.

The existence of the whole depends on the need for antagonistic elements. Additionally, the fight between opposites is absolute and expresses the infinite nature of the process of evolution, whereas the unity of opposites, which symbolizes the stability of an item, is relative and ephemeral. This is due to the fact that contradiction also refers to an item's relationship to itself, or more specifically, to its ongoing self-negation, rather than only a relationship between opposing tendencies in an object or between opposing objects. Positive and negative, new and old, progressive and reactionary threads make up the fabric of all existence. They fight each other all the time and are continuously at odds.

The saying "everything comes about through conflict" was popular among the ancients. A phenomena must contradict itself if it comprises opposites. The same holds true for how this phenomena manifests in cognition. The fact that a phenomenon persists while also changing constantly, i.e., including opposing tendencies, is obviously in contradiction.

The opposing sides, components, and tendencies that make up a whole and interact to create a contradiction are not provided in some kind of eternally prefabricated shape. Contradiction initially looks as a unity containing an unimportant difference while only being a possibility. The next phase represents a crucial distinction within this oneness. Despite sharing a foundation, the object has some fundamental traits or inclinations that do not match.

The fundamental difference generates opposites, which by mutual negation develop into a contradiction. An acute conflict is the most extreme instance of disagreement. Opposites are not anything immobile, like two wrestlers in a photograph, that just stand around in gloomy passivity. They converse and resemble a live wrestling match more. Every change creates contradictions, fixes them, and simultaneously gives rise to new ones. Obstacle-overcoming is a constant in life. Everything is entangled in a web of inconsistencies.

In the works of many great artists, contradictions in people's thoughts and behaviors have been represented with astonishing truth and vividness. Shakespeare is probably the most notable example, as he captured the inner world of man with such insight into all the conflicting passions that plague the soul, the clash of motives, the conflict of emotions, the rivalries between people, the critical states of will and mind, the contesting urges of good and evil, the noble and the ignoble, the tragic and the comic.

Shakespeare does a masterful job of following a character's arc up until the point where it becomes its own opposite, and the conflicts between his characters frequently amount to an individual embodiment of the conflicts between societal forces and interests.

Another author who illustrates the idea that all paradoxes "live together" in life is Dostoyevsky. No matter how terrifying they may be, nobody can get away from them since they follow every man they encounter.

Harmony and balance, when considering contradictions and opposites, we begin to wonder if it is possible to state definitely that contradictions always simultaneously imply and exclude one another. Contraries can complement each other as well as exclude each other in life, creating a harmonious whole.
