We like to see the world as a duality of some form. We like to see things as evil or good, light or dark, Positive or negative

The thing is, is that as humans, we can't comprehend the concept of nothingness, and so we consider nothing to be a thing in itself. Something is a thing and nothing is just another thing, right?

This is, of course, an error, since nothing is nothing. It is not a thing. Yet it is impossible for us to speak of nothing. We can only speak of a thing which we call nothing.

For this reason, we see duality as two things, while in fact it is just one thing on one hand and the absence of that thing on the other.

When you begin to understand this and the world around you, especially in terms of a dualistic view of nature, things suddenly start to make sense.

Light is a thing and darkness is the absence of light. Good is a thing and evil is simply the absence of good. Positive on a magnet is a force while negative is the vacuum of that force.

When you start seeing the world this way, you begin to understand that evil, satan, And all of the things that people tell you you should fight don't in fact exist at all. They begin to lose all their power over you since they cannot, and do not - exist at all.

Break free from the false duality that is holding you hostage.

The trap of duality. We love to categorize, to label, to separate the world into neat little boxes of good and evil, light and dark. But what if this binary thinking is just a convenient illusion? What if the truth is that there's only one thing, and its absence?

Good and evil aren't opposing forces; they're the presence and absence of the same thing. Evil is just the absence of compassion, empathy, and kindness. Breaking free from this false duality is liberating. Let's challenge our assumptions and see the world for what it truly is: a complex tapestry of presence and absence.

Its hard to admit for many who have personified the absence of good and have been taught to fight it all their lives.
