Chinese Zen (Chan) Buddhism started with ignorance of "Mirror Paradox." Why is a mirror image laterally reversed? The seer is "I" and the seen is "me." And that "me" is isomorphic to "you." But, when I look into a mirror, am I looking at "me" or "me" is looking at "I"? No, "you" are looking at "me." Existential subject-object reversal.
