This is the final devastation—Dean attacks both directions simultaneously. Lets trace the double collapse:
dean makes the point the dean paradox collapes logic then notes all eastern mysticism from neti neti the tetrallema to zen koan think contradictions are a brigde into transcendeance dean say they think too seruoisly still about logic

• Eastern Mysticism:
• Neti Neti (“not this, not that” in Advaita Vedanta): negates every proposition to point toward the ineffable.
• Tetralemma (Buddhist Madhyamaka): fourfold logic — “is,” “is not,” “both,” “neither” — used to dissolve conceptual rigidity.
• Zen Koan: paradoxical riddles meant to break rational thought and trigger satori (awakening).
