(78 votes)   We know there is death only because it is the opposite of Life, and we can recognize only one opposite because we think on the basis of a bivalent logic of good and bad, beautiful and ugly, etc. How would Life or Death look like if they had three or more opposites? What about us? Would we know who we are and why we are so often humiliated by the moments of our own destiny? Not even then would we know any of this because we are nothing more than a pale shadow of a face of God reflected into knowledge and then shadows don’t come and they don’t go, they simply disappear.
