quote - imagined duality - author - Nic Higham

• On a deeper level,
• it’s imagined duality which creates all manner of separateness
  • from the kind I call “dualistic isolation,”
    • the sense that you’re identified with and alone in your body and your mind,
  • to “existential loneliness,”
    • a persistent sense of incompleteness that no amount of social or material connection can resolve.
