Dualism versus non-Dualism

The following is a summation in 78 characters (including spaces and other characters) outlining an interpretation between dualistic and non-dualistic philosophies. Specifically, dualistic philosophy that became the driving force of Western thought, and non-dualistic philosophy that became the driving force of Eastern thought.

In dualism, good is distinct from evil. In non-dualism, good exists with evil.

Dualism suggests that each object, unless at the absolute static point (defined as 0), carry innate potential of good and evil. This can be represented by any positive number, and it's mirror, the negative value of that positive number. Each number takes a distinct value and occupies a distinct space that distinguishes the two values. In dualism, the two numbers are different, and can be represented by the absolute value of that number. The absolute value of that number then represents the innate obligation of that object for the purpose of good.

Non-dualism suggests that the positive and negative values occur in the same realm at the same time. Furthermore, that the two numbers are indisposed of an absolute judgement of subjectivity. Both numbers represent innate states, which depending on the circumstance of survival, are utilized for the sole purpose of being. Therefore, the absolute number of that object represents the state of the object, and includes both good and evil co-existing at the same space and time.

In conclusion, another interpretation of dualism and non-dualism may exist as:

Dualism declares innate moral directionality to the existence of objects, non-dualism does not.
