| Abstract | Nagatomo attempts to make intelligible the logic contained in the "Diamond Sutra." Called the "logic of not," the logic is stated in a propositional form："A is not a, therefore it is A." Since this formulation is contradictory or paradoxical in light of Aristotelean logic，one might dismiss it as nonsensical. In order to show that it is neither nonsensical nor meaningless, Natatomo articulates the philosophical reasons why the "Sutra" makes its position in this contradictory form. |
