Duality
Existence is (all) about duality. Everywhere you see there is a this and that. There are dualities over these dualities. These meta-dualities may manifest themselves in the question of whether or not these dualities are equivalent. But why restrict ourselves at dualities? Is the world complex enough to warrant more than two simultaneous forms? Exactly. That was a Yes/No question. And the duality was created in the asking of the question. Things in duality are entangled, which makes them inseparable and identity-free (have no independent existence). Here are some of them (will update as and when I find more)
