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.

Here's a nice thing to throw into the mix:

Can anything exist without it's opposite? Well... I can conceive of something that just may, but whether or not I articulate it right, is up to you to judge.

Imagine Yin and yang, good/evil, etc. Those are two concepts, right? Well, instead of considering them two wholes, consider them two halves making a whole.

Now, after that step, with the one object being (Yin/yang), is there a way to really imagine a (- (yin/yang))?

What I am saying here is that at some point above and below, there is the infinite upon infinite, placed upon infinite, powered by the infinite, to the infinite degree, of the eternal value. This is what for the moment I will refer to as the Divine Reflexive. There is no analyzing it. It is what it is. It equals itself in all analytical contexts, and there is no real other way to explain it as a whole. Why do you think the response it gave when asked what it was turned out to be, "I am what I am?"

This ends up being -that which must be accepted-. Hence, why I hold Taoists in such high regard, since their entire system of beliefs stems on the idea of accepting balance as it comes.
