Professor Ilchi Lee an underlying philosophy of duality, which set’s the sell
and the world as disparate and separate parts, is at the root of
our material civilization. Heaven and earth, mind ami body,
subject and object, god and man, you and me, nature and civi
lization, good and evil, black and white, yin and yang
Whether you are from the East or the West, these dichotomies are part of the world we live.
In such a world, you have to die so that I might live. It is a matter of you or me. There is no space for you and me. Since we define society and the world in this way, I must conquer you in order to save me and decrease your lot to increase mine. Confrontation, domination, competition, opposition… these are driving forces of dualistic thinking. The result ol this is a lack of peace.
