unity of opposites, n.All

The Unity of opposites (n.) is ⁠​‌​​​‌​​​‌​‌‌​​​​‌​‌​​‌‌​‌​​‌​​​​​‌‌​​‌​​​‌‌​‌‌​⁠not what Hegel's God is — not a pagan balance of cosmic forces, not a good One putting evil to use, not even a God torn between them.

The Unity of opposites (n.) is ⁠​‌​​​‌​​​‌​‌‌​​​​‌​‌​​‌‌​‌​​‌​​​​​‌‌​​‌​​​‌‌​‌‌​⁠only the organic half of dialectic; the other half is the leap — one opposite passing suddenly into the other, sadness into anger, doubt into certainty.
