Summary Table: Existing in a Permanent or Prolonged State of Non-Duality

Concept	Explanation
Photograph Analogy	Similar to viewing a color photo and its black-and-white negative—although they appear different, both represent the same image. Non-duality suggests focusing on their shared structure rather than the superficial differences.
Perception vs. Reality	Our minds are conditioned to perceive contrast and opposites, but this dualistic view obscures the underlying unity that exists beneath surface-level distinctions.
Biblical Dictionary Insight	Definitions of "conservative" and "liberal" in the biblical dictionary reflected each other, revealing that seemingly opposing concepts can share the same essence when viewed from a broader perspective.
Non-Dualistic Universe	The world is not inherently dualistic—our minds impose labels and categories on experiences. Letting go of these mental divisions allows us to perceive reality as unified and interconnected.
Choice to Refrain from Judgment	By choosing not to label experiences as "good" or "bad" and instead observing them from multiple perspectives, we can move beyond reactivity and see events as neutral occurrences.
Freedom from Mental Conditioning	Non-duality invites us to transcend habitual patterns of judgment and separation, recognizing that all experiences are interconnected and part of a singular reality.

Existing in a permenate or prolonged state of non-duality…can we find a suitable explanation for you? I think, most certainly, that we can.

Picture that you are staring at a color photograph, side by side to its black and white negative. Its the exact same picture. Yet we identify them as different because our mind is programmed to notice variation. We then say that the photo being presented in two oppossing visual filters must be considered different.

But what if we chose to ignore the superficial differences and just acknowledged the identical structure of both photos? It is not color vs black and white. Rather, its two identical photos. Their superficial color doesnt change the fact that its still the exact same picture.

My grandfather gave me a biblical dictionary eight years ago. I was compelled to look up the defenitions for conservative and liberal. I was shocked then enlightened to find that they shared the same defenition. They referred to the other as words that mean the same thing.

This is not a duelistic universe. We are just programmed to labrl and seperate everything into oppossing categories. What if you chose to stop labelling everything? What if you refused to make a judgement and instead, just looked at the situation from the eqaul opposite perspective. Events are neither good or bad. Theyre just events. We can choose not to react to them.
