GOOD & EVIL ...in the Mind of the Beholder
by Ernie Padilla
Metaphysical dualism asserts that the facts of the universe are best explained in terms of mutually irreducible elements. These are often considered to be mind and matter, or as by Descartes, thought and extension. Mind is usually conceived as conscious experience, matter as occupying space and being in motion. They are thus two qualitatively different orders of reality.
In The Oxford Companion to The English Language dual is defined as pairing (16c: from Latin
dualis, translation Greek
duikos, of two.) A term for the middle part of a three-part system of number in various languages, including classical Greek: singular, dual, plural. It marks nouns, adjectives and pronouns for two as opposed to one or many. Old English had a dual in its system of personal pronouns: wit (we two), git (you two). In modern European languages, however the dual has largely been subsumed into the plural. In English, dual meaning may conveyed by two and by such phrases as a couple (of), a pair (of). The term has been used in four other areas:
(1) Where both, either, neither refer to two, in contrast with all, several, none, which when plural refer to three or more.
(2) Prescriptively, in advocating ‘between two’ and ‘among three or more’. However, between is widely used for three or more: Flying between New York, Los Angeles, and Sydney.
(3) With regard to personal nouns of either *** (foreigner, parent, teacher) in contrast to gender-specific nouns like daughter, schoolmaster.
(4) For summation plurals such as scissors, binoculars, trousers, jeans, pyjamas/pajamas, which refer to a tool, instrument, or article of clothing consisting of two parts. Here, number contrast is conveyed by pair of jeans, two pairs of jeans.
These definitions illustrate how a pair or duality is an extension of the whole. Greg Braden in his book Walking between the Worlds - The Science of Compassion says - “To experience light in your life, allow for the possibility of darkness as well as light”.
The darkness is as much a part of the whole as the light, and provides what is necessary to learn and grow.
