Advaita Or Non-Dualism Is What One Should Follow

By Alex D White


The world we live in today is what was created by us, the language we speak, the ethics we follow and everything that we know. We know that there are two opposites in the world for everything, if there is up there is down, so is inside and outside, right or wrong and you and me. This simply showcases that our world is a dualistic world, but are you sure if the world that you live in is the real world and the opposites do exists as you know them.

The state of non-duality is something that doesn't follow the line of opposites, which goes beyond the world we know. However, how can one know about non-duality, when the discussion itself is known to be dualistic? Therefore first you need to know what the difference between being dualistic and non-dualistic is.

This needs you to understand what is the perception of Non-duality, like for an instance if you have every felt something or experienced something that is more meaningful, deep and seems real, which is also beyond the regular you, though it is you in some way, it can be considered as your experience of non-duality. Individuals that experience non-duality are known to found peace, unity and experience a better self. The non-dual experience might be gained in nature, choice or music and art, starting a hobby or work, even while walking or by several other reasons.

People are also known to experience non-duality through meditation or spiritual practices, while performing certain activity or without doing anything by becoming self-aware. Try to refer to this, have you ever felt deeply unsatisfied or intensely unhappy, it can be considered as you realizing that there is a state of freedom, which is known as non-duality. The need of being happy and satisfied will give rise to the curiosity of being non-dual and non-separated.

Non-duality is known to have a lot of meaning that one can think or know of. However, the best definition can be considered as non-duality being the spiritual, scientific and philosophical understanding of not being separated and basics of being one. The followers of non-dualism believe in the thought of all being one. This thought doesn't only as an abstract sense but is considered to be the truth at the deepest level of existence.

Non-duality is not something that you need to believe in, it is not a religion and even not a guideline to live your life. It provides you with no offers for the future, but it can definitely become one. However you have to believe that there is not self, no time or space and everything else that comes with is an illusion. This will lead non-duality becoming your only belief system.

When one starts to follow non-duality, they do believe that they are not a separate person and they also go around telling others that they are one. Everybody continues to live there life as a separate identity but they follow a certain concepts as a whole. They start living a life, which is beyond their regular self.

Non-duality is completely inevitable to the seeker, as a separate person everyone is trying to look for something or seeking to have something, it may be money, success or love. Here the spiritual seeker is looking to attain non-duality, spiritual awakening and enlightenment; the process is all the same.
