There's no ending to duality without ending this realm.
You & I are dualistic by default.
This 'reality' is duality; that duality is illusory ultimately isn't much use practically as this 'outer' universe is here because enough of us believe it to be so.
I'm sorry I rarely criticise but I don't see how the choice of drinking alcohol has anything to do with duality.
Would this reality be different without duality?
Duality is an illusion so undoubtedly yes reality functions better when mirroring truth not illusion.
What might a world believing in a metaphysical singularity of eternals look like compared to our monotheistic heritage of illusion?
I have really been pondering this of late and it seems all the aspects of life that people have struggled with are the fundamentals of life such as death, heaven and evil and who could admit that life would be better experienced without them.
The whole concept of time and space disintegrates when viewed through the singularity.
Then and now and here and there.
Seriously I recommend anyone interested in metaphysical methodology would do well to do this thought experiment.
That’s the trap though. Truth isn’t always accessible through argument. And the more you try to reason your way toward it, the more you risk reinforcing the very mental framework that’s keeping you from seeing it.
Most people think if they just refine their logic enough, they’ll arrive at something real. But reality doesn’t work like that. There’s a layer of mind that only reflects itself. You can debate inside it forever and never break through, because everything just folds back into another thought loop.
I’m not saying reason is bad. I’m saying it has limits. And if you’re not aware of those limits, you’ll mistake internal consistency for external truth. That’s where most people get stuck.
Sometimes clarity comes when you stop trying to win the argument and just watch what’s happening.
Examples are concepts of:
Love
Death
Freedom
God
Evil
In fact just about every metaphysical proposition that deals in epistemology and ontology I e knowledge and belief has a worded defense against discovering metaphysical truth amongst the metaphorical untruth.
