Full Idea
I cannot convince myself that when you add one to one either the first or the second one becomes two, or they both become two by the addition of the one to the other, ...or that when you divide one, the cause of becoming two is now the division.
Gist of Idea
If you add one to one, which one becomes two, or do they both become two?

A Reaction
Lovely questions, all leading to the conclusion that two consists of partaking in duality, to which you can come by several different routes.
