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.

It can be considered as the consciousness, which simply means we are the existence of a single consciousness, otherwise known as Advaita, Spirit and so on. It is the only thing that remains constant, always present and cannot be interchanged and brings out the essence of every existence.

In the last few years even the scientists has agreed to this that everything has comprises from the same single substance, everything we know about nature and surrounding is probably because of the Big Bang and therefore the sense of being and our consciousness does come from it.

You must understand the non-duality is not something different but the realization of everyone or everything being the same and not separated. It might be little hard for you to understand but one has to go beyond its thinking to attain non-duality.

Once you experience non-duality, you start to acknowledge non-duality more and more. And in the journey of getting more acquainted to non-duality, you start following books, teachers and communities. Pursuit of non-duality might also lead you to spiritual practices, urge you to meet with non-dual teachers and even change your mind as a result of criticism.

Duality is basically an illusion; separation between two different existing individuals is just an illusion, which the saints following Advaita philosophy have long understood. Both the eastern and the western science acknowledge oneness and do understand that the theory behind the illusion. Most probably one can see duality in such different forms, duality in mind and matter, oneself and other, being conscious and unconscious, reality and illusion and so on. Non-duality can simply be explained as the identification of the common dualisms which avoid recognition of the real truth of the reality.

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.

Things that are scientifically proven are needed to go through deep scrutiny and even after that they are subjected to change in the future. The second aspect includes self, realization, getting self-aware that everything that we seek, perceive, identify as the real world is not actually what we think of it. The realization or awareness of inner self cannot be explained but only experienced when one tries to. Seekers say that the mind, self and the spirit when becomes one, then one can experience the philosophy of non-duality.
