The excerpt represents the core issue or deciding factor on which you must meditate, and is drawn from Parmenides by Plato: It will not.
Neither will it be other than other, while it remains one; for not one, but
only other, can be other than other, and nothing else.
True.
Then not by virtue of being one will it be other?
Certainly not.
But if not by virtue of being one, not by virtue of itself; and if not by
virtue of itself, not itself, and itself not being other at all, will not
be other than anything?
Right.
Neither will one be the same with itself.
