Consciousness is the primary nature. Changes in things are caused by external causes of things. Changes in things are just increases or decreases in quantity.

Matter is primary, things are connected and moving, and changes in things are determined by internal causes. Changes in things include not only quantitative changes, but also birth, destruction, and qualitative changes.

present in everything

There are contradictory movements in the development process of every thing from beginning to end.

When analyzing contradictions, pay attention to overlooked contradictions

Human beings understand the objective laws of things, from the special to the general, and then from the general to the special

Different development processes of the same movement form can only be solved by using different methods due to the qualitative differences in their contradictions.

The two sides of every contradiction have their own characteristics and cannot be treated equally. Only by studying all aspects of the contradiction can we understand the overall situation.

The various stages of development in the long-term process of the development of things, the situations are often different from each other

Only by understanding the particularities of various aspects of contradictions at each stage of development can we better analyze the problem.

Among the two aspects of a contradiction, one party must be the main one and play a leading role.

The status of both parties in a contradiction is not fixed. The main and non-main aspects of the contradiction are transforming into each other. At the same time, the nature of things also changes.

The nature of things is mainly determined by the main aspects of the contradiction that gain dominance

Mutual cooperation, mutual connection, mutual penetration, mutual penetration, and mutual dependence

The transformation of the contradictory parties must occur under necessary conditions (changes in the strength of the contradictory parties).

What seems to be a static state is actually a state of quantitative change.

When the quantitative change reaches a certain level and the static state is destroyed and transformed into the opposite state, it means that things have undergone qualitative changes.

Confrontation is a form of contradictory struggle, not all forms of contradictory struggle

Not all conflicts must take the form of confrontation

When conflicts develop to an irreconcilable level, they must take the form of confrontation or even war.
