Contradiction
There are many contradictions contained in man. Only the perfecting of psychic energy can promote the harmonization of life. Contradiction is nothing but disorder. (BR, 22)
One must have enormous patience and observation in order to be discriminating in the jungles of contradictions due to chaos. (BR, 140)
Each one has noticed with surprise that in the best Teachings schism has taken place. Certain leaders have even considered such occurrences useful for arousing discussion.

(BR, 454)
