They recognize the individuality of things, but at the same time they are aware of that all differences and contrasts are relative within an all-embracing unity. Since in our normal state of consciousness, this unity of all contrasts--and especially the unity of opposites--is extremely hard to accept, it constitutes one of the most puzzling features of Eastern philosophy.
