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.

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

I believe so. Yin and yang as one entity can be described as perfection. So how would one define anti-perfection?

The first thing that comes to my mind is Murphy's Law. Of course, that can't always be the case, but in nature there are lots and lots of examples of things negating other things to create balance. Fire and water, matter and anti-matter, electrons and protons, etc.

I also like the term you coined, Xenomancer. "Divine Reflexive." (IMG:style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif)
