But - unless you specify more concretely what a link is, I'm not sure it can really be a thing. It's so abstract the way you say it, that it seems to require some additional statements what linking objectsxwould mean in the physical universe.


But he's not talking about an object linking to itself.  He's talking about the relationship also being one of the objects of the relationship.

In other words: "Paradox. . . so Allah."
