Help me understand .. duality of Reality

[SoonHei]

Was talking to someone about the whole of existence being duality

 

Heads and tails

Good and bad

Up and down

Left and right

 

But then he asked me something and it made me stuck as i dont know myself...

 

Here's what he said:

 

What side is the head of a ball.
We dont define existence by non-existance its other way around.
Nothing is not something if you define nothing it becomes something.

 

I know an object like a sphere or ball.. unsure where the duality is there... ?

Anyone explain? And what would be an answer to him saying that it's the other way around... Kinda makes sense too..

Duallity is Survival Mode, like running in fear from a Lion. 

Non-Duallity is Transcendence the common folk limitations, physical and mental.

Nothing is not some thing, nothing is everything, as everything is infinite. Nothing is undefinable, because it’s everything. Think - the whole is all that is, as all that is is the whole (being), rather than the whole as just a sum of all parts. The whole is conscious of itself. There’s no actual “parts”. 

The duality you’re referring too, about the ball, is helpful conceptually. Duality is also deeper, as it’s the means in which The One can appear as two or more “things”. This is everpresent as “reality” is duality. Think of cellular division for example, one magically and inexplicably becoming two, and then looping as two people magically and inexplicably appear to ‘make’ another, one. 

Also, imagine a fresh banana, ripe and ready to eat. It seems solid, and separate from other things. But then imagine the banana sitting in the road, in the hot sun, for a few days. It would be discolored, gases escaped, rotting, etc. The point is you could see that it was never actually a separate “thing” - that it was relative all along (to the air, the heat, the light, etc). So, even though there are solid, separate things in appearance - that is duality. In actuality there is the entirety of relativity, the whole, being. 

Just for fun, and to get a deeper idea of this, take a few minutes to try to pinpoint the actual point in which a banana you eat is no longer a banana, and becomes your body. 

“oh shit. My body’s just relativity?!”

Love it exactly as it is though, and you might experience the absolute as well.
