    It would seem if we can say anything definite about becoming, then it must itself be an object of knowledge, despite its variability. Of course, it is Plato's assertion that we cannot say anything definite about becoming due to its variability. But this assertion itself is an attempt to say something definite about becoming, so it necessarily contradicts itself.

    "Knowledge is the judgement of perception" -- Plato.
    Objective knowledge is dual to subjective knowledge (perception).
    Hume's fork:- Absolute truth is dual to relative truth, "the relation of ideas" is dual to "the matter of facts".
    Noumenal (rational,analytic) is dual to phenomenal (empirical, synthetic) -- Immanuel Kant.
    Deduction (a priori) is dual to induction (a posteriori).
    Thesis is dual to anti-thesis -- the time independent Hegelian dialectic.
    Randomness (change, entropy) is dual to order (constant, syntropy).
    Syntropy is dual to increasing entropy -- the 4th law of thermodynamics.
    "The art of progress is to preserve order amid change and to preserve change amid order" -- the duality of Alfred North Whitehead.

    Who is reading this?
    When was this audio recording originally published?
    In what format was it originally published?
    It sounds like reel to reel magnetic tape from the 50s or 60s.
    I should not have to ask these questions. This info should be in the description section of each of these videos.

    Same is dual to difference!
    You are the same person now but different compared to a second ago.
    Time is dual! Time creates duality!
    Absolute time (Galileo) is dual to relative time (Einstein) -- Time duality.

    The Western phylosophy departed from Socrates, went through Plato, and fell to the ground by Aristotle. So science made it possible to understand the physical world well, but instead lost the spiritual world or the world of truth. Humanity has become stronger in the body, but it is in danger of becoming weaker in spirit. Mankind must now reinforce the spiritual world and regain its position as a primate. OnChar Lee (Author of the book "Humans & Truth - human life is the awakening process")

      Define spiritual, prove your assertions that "the spirit" and "spiritual world" actually exist. Then your statement might have some value. Until such time as you can demonstrate the above your statement is no better than word salad.

    Some of his philosophies are flawed. Like the theory of why people are good is because of law and consequences. I like to think people are good because of empathy and own self realization.

    Russell was apparently an empiricist, believing only in knowledge by perception and denying Plato's a priori, so Russell grossly misunderstood Plato's two forms of knowledge and treated Plato as an empiricist gone bad. Russell is a great logician, but his talent stops there...

      @Lever Du Jour Objective knowledge is dual to subjective knowledge (perception).
      Noumenal (the mind) is dual to phenomenal (matter).
      "A priori" is dual to "a posteriori".

    The truth is just a lie.
