In the velvet depths of night, we drift alongside the thoughts of Graham Priest, whose theories whisper through the shadows of contradiction and truth. We explore the gentle folds of dialetheism, a realm where Priest reconciles the serene clash of opposing truths, mirroring the enigmatic heart of the Liar Paradox. As contradiction softly embraces its counterpart under the principles of Mahayana Buddhism, we find tranquility in the complex tapestry of human understanding and philosophical inquiry. Let the slow dance of thought and paradox lull you into a thoughtful repose, where the boundaries of truth blur into a dream.This episode is hosted by Jessica Morgan.
