I propose that we should change the Transduality page, as its current state is frankly extremely misleading and even factually wrong in some parts, not to mention it is extremely outdated by now, as it makes no mention of ideas which have been bought up multiple times and are generally accepted across the Wiki (Such as the idea of "Specific Transduality" as defined below), and also leads many people to the line-of-thinking that Nondualism is automatically 1-A, which is just plain wrong due to reasons I have already outlined in another Thread.
So, I believe it should be better defined and divided into Types which encompass multiple levels and applications of Transduality, all listed below.
I would also like to give special thanks to Aeyu, as she has helped me a lot off-site, and without her this wouldn't be possible, the girl deserves all the loveand Freedom
Types
Type 1 (Specific Transduality): The state of being outside of the applications of the binary nature of a given System, or even of an entire Concept, while not being necessarily above all binary ideas and states (i.e Such a being would only be above individual binary concepts, such as Good / Evil, Light / Darkness, True / False, etc.)
Type 2 (False Binary Transduality): The state of being external to all binary distinctions within the context of the scope of an entire reality, but not all concepts of duality itself on any/all levels. Such a state is relative to the cosmology of the verse it belongs to, as there can by other, vaster frameworks wherein binary concepts are of a much larger scope. Furthermore, the difference between types 2 and 3 is not necessarily a dimensional/adimensional distinction.
Type 3 (True Binary Transduality): Transcendence over the very concept of Duality. As such, a Nondual Entity of this scope would be unhinged from all distinctions and possible dichotomies at any given level, as they would exist above the very idea which encompasses and governs them in the first place. Such characters usually exist as living contradictions within their own setting, and abide to Dialetheic or Trivialistic Systems of Logic, or are alternatively portrayed as residing upon a state of single, indivisible wholeness devoid of any separation.
Type 4 (Paraconsistency): A state of being wherein even the dichotomy between being within or outside the scope of binary distinctions is rendered irrelevant. Such characters will exist outside of binary logic at any level and will typically obey alternate systems of logic altogether, up to and including those states which are beyond human comprehension. A basic example of this would be characters who operate under Many-Valued logic, where multiple conclusions can be made other than the basic true/false/both/neither dichotomies (True/False/3rd Value, for instance)
