Such a cross-cultural intercourse would provide us with a holistic picture of Truth which in Schiller's world 'lies in the abyss'. I have given earlier only the first line of Schiller's couplet reported to have been one of the favourite sayings of Niels Bohr. The motto 'Contraria sunt complementa' inspires people following different norms and ways of life to respect others' views even if those are opposite to theirs'. Nobody need be victimised because he or she holds the opposite view, as the same too may be a profound truth. The same truth when perceived from different angels may give rise to contradictory visions, but in reality all these visions are complementary.
Light is particulate, light is also wavy.
The wave and particle natures are totally opposite to each other but these are complementary characteristics of the same photon.
