Dualism, contradictions, opposites and paradoxes Options

At the forefront of our reality, we experience things dualistically. White and black, hot and cold, up and down, you and me. Many philosophers will contest that this dualism is an illusion, and that the paradoxical nature of the world, is actually the truth. Can something truly exist without its opposite? Does that entail, if so, that what seems to be opposed are actually components of the same thing? Does separateness really exist, and weather it does or not, should we think dualistically?

Philosophers of the board, please share your opinion.

There are lots of fancy words and I even saw a mathematical formula being thrown in around this topic.
In reality, it's not that necessary. Duality is just a term for the concept of the Yin-Yang, otherwise known as Ultimate Good balancing Ultimate Evil.
Sure, not many people believe in this idea because of the God-centric religions stating the fact that God is supreme, perfect, and can do anything.

Which isn't true. God can't lie, God can't be immoral, and God can't be nothing.

But I digress. The power of duality all lies in the ability to balance everything in moderation. There are lots of things supporting this, like, one glass of red wine a day helps prevent heart attacks. Hell, there's a Buddhist tradition to do 108 good things during the year for good fortune.

Any rebuttals? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif)
