Non-dualism and World: Ontological Questions in the Non-dualizing Mode of Discourse.

ontext · The relation between language and reality, the problem of truth, and ontological questions in general belong to the perennial problems of philosophy. Although non-dualism deals with these problems and their presuppositions, it still remains at the periphery of philosophical discourse. Problem · How to deal with ontological questions within the non-dualizing mode of discourse. Method · The paper tries to reconstruct the origin of, and the interest in, ontological questions addressed to non-dualists; it discusses the possible types of answers to these questions and proposes an alternative way of dealing with them. Results · Ontological questions cannot be formulated within a non-dualist conceptual framework and hence they cannot be answered. Implications · This paper tries to pave the way for leaving ontological questions behind and moving on to a different range of philosophical queries ensuing from a non-dualizing perspective.
