Maybe, non-dualism is:
1. there's no such thing as good and evil; or,
2. there's only good; or,
3. there's only evil.
Then again, maybe, non-dualism is:
1. there's no such thing as matter and spirit; or,
2. there's only spirit; or,
3. there's only matter.
But, then again, maybe non-dualism is:
1. there's no such thing as truth and falsity; or,
2. there's only truth; or,
3. there's only falsity.
But, then again, maybe non-dualism is:
1. there's no such thing as me and you; or,
2. there's only me; or,
3. there's only you.
Et cetera
