Some disturbing concepts that I never entertained before. That people don't exist! That there is no such thing as enlightenment, since there is no one to get enlightened.

There is only ONE.....apparently manifesting as two.
Would that 'one' be a non-contingent actuality, such as my vacuum cleaner?

It may have some cultural value like comic books. Just a suggestion.
