  1. dualism

    in a dualism there are two parts that are opposing, in a in a unitary state, two parts that had been opposites now transmute and cease to be separate of one another, and so become complementary thus forming a new nature that has no dualistic counterpart.

    an example from chemistry would be sodium (na) and chlorine (cl). when the two, which had been opposites (+ and -)come together they transmute and what is formed (salt) shows no opposite. another example is love. in the use of the word people usually think of love as a duality - love-hate. so love is the opposite of hate and therefore love is a lessor condition of hate, which tells us that this kind of love is conditional. but what about unconditional love. it has no opposite, for unconditional love is a unitary condition that reflects a dynamic equilibrium that was the result of a transmutation of whatever came together to create the condition. unconditional love is often referred to as oneness or a unity, i.e., a singularity.
