In my point of view, the explanation
for “The sound of one hand clapping” has both logical and philosophical undertones.
Logically, it is impossible to hear the sound of one hand clapping provided the
hand belong to one person. To hear the sound of one hand clapping, it must
involve different persons or at least, one hand and another object which can be
any part of human body, wall, musical instrument etc. For instance, to strike
another person in terms of greeting each other that is also a sound of one
clapping hand to each individual. This hand is also clapped in the approval of
a business or an agreement made upon by two parties.
Philosophically, this is
more of words of the wise that a straight meaning statement that still has some
fragments of logic in it. The meaning of such statement varies depending on how
and where it is used. It can be negativity or positivity. It is said that a
tree cannot make a forest, so the same implies that one hand cannot make a
clap. Thus sound of one hand clapping can mean uncertainty, unfortunate,
impossibility, absence of unity, self-centeredness and difficulty. Sometimes sound of one hand clapping can mean glorious
thing. It can be used in the event of single-handed achievements such as the
single handed achievements of scientific heroes like Galilie Galieo, Newton,
Lenz, Hertz, Nicolas Otto and the rest of them. This is my opinion may be there
are some valid explanations that can be brought forward.
