This paper demonstrates a problem with the philosophical question. To do so, it employs a style of reasoning employed by the Buddhist philosopher Nāgārjuna. Often identified as the neither identical nor distinct argument, this style of reasoning is employed by Nāgārjuna in his Mūlamadhyamakakārikā. The paper concludes by noting that the philosophical question, unreflectively pursued, leads to contradictions.

论哲学

本文用哲学问题论证了一个问题。为此，它采用了佛教哲学家龙树菩萨所采用的推理方式。通常被认为是既不相同也不不同的论点，龙树菩萨在他的Mūlamadhyamakakārikā 中采用了这种推理方式。论文最后指出，哲学问题，不加反思地追求，会导致矛盾。
