Dualism
Your right brain does deal in particulars, item by item recognition, and unembellished experience, both of the world and the self, and the left brain deals in generalities, over arching assumptions and theorizing. Right brain = particle. Left brain = wave. Right brain = matter. Left brain = thought. Your brain is constantly performing the dual slit experiment. That’s its job.
This is the origin of duality, and nether function is the truth, neither experience is the self. They are functional, virtually true, but taken as the absolute truth they lead to mind death, all the while leaving your brain perfectly functional.
“Heart knows neither duality nor the limitations of space and time.” Sri Sathya Sai Baba (Indian Spiritual leader, b.1926)
