Every stick has two ends, a proverb.

In this episode, we're going to be taking a look at what is duality understanding dualistic

cognition.

That's quite a mouthful there, but this is a very, very foundational topic.

And you're probably thinking, Leo, I've heard you talking about duality a bunch already,

so what more is there to say?

Well, actually, I've spent the last two years compiling a list of dualities or

dualistic categories that the mind uses to try to understand reality. And so this episode and the next one is going to be a mini series here.

Probably two parts, maybe a third part, I'm not sure how much I can cram into two episodes.

I'll try to do it in two. But in these two episodes I'm going to give you

my master list of over 250 very common and important dualities and this is going to help you to understand how your mind makes sense of all of life

the entire world. This is this is very foundational stuff and I haven't really covered it

as directly as I'm going to cover it here.

And I'm going to address every single one of these dualities

to lesser or greater degree.

And we're going to break them apart into three groups. The first one is going to be just common dualities. The second

group is going to be scientific types of dualities for scientific thinking. And the final

category or group is going to be existential dualities.

So the most important part of this series is going to be part two.

So make sure you stick around for part two.

I get the sense that most people they watch part one they get bored with it halfway through then they ever get to part two but part two is usually the most important part of my series or the last part of the series is always the most important because we're

building something up throughout the series.
