My apologies for being unclear. I assumed readers of this section know those embracing non-duality to understand that all is one - love and hate, me and it, us and them, good and bad, right and wrong - that there are no such labels in oneness. I was playing the devil's advocate - if one seeks to better the world through love, isn't that placing labels of "good" on love and "bad" on harming?
Personally and at this time I believe in something in between what I understand of dualistic and non-dualistic perspectives. I believe in a type of oneness of all things. However, I also believe in a type of duality in what I perceive to be loving and harming, that is a good and bad. More specifically, I do not attribute one's harming behavior to their identity. I suspect we all came from love and will return, the one growing wiser and knowing itself more fully. I just seek to understand and appreciate perspectives differing mine in order to broaden my own and decrease inaccurate assumptions.
