If one is consciously immersed in Duality with
full awareness, then there is nothing to overcome.
Why did the Taoists create the concept of Yin and Yang, placing a bit of the opposite in each?
Why do people distinguish Duality from Non-Duality, when the simple act of doing so becomes just another Dualistic dichotomy?
In the philosophy of Non Duality, the concept of Duality has become the "bad thing" or the "evil thing" which must be avoided, transcended, overcome, seen as ignorant etc...Why not accepted? embraced as part OF the Non Duality, or even Non Duality itself, so there is no remaining distinction?
How does one accept what is, knowing that it is not?
For to accept things as they are, means to accept Duality as it is, no? Then there are no stages, nothing to be understood and nothing to overcome.
This is the way I live anyway.
