From the post:

Campbell invokes Schopenhauer's notion that "you and that other are one, that you are two aspects of the one life, and that your apparent separateness is but an effect of the way we experience forms under the conditions of space and time.

One could think that the seven principles I posited earlier today

1. There is me
2. There is outside of me
3. What is outside affects me (consequences)
4. What is outside of me behaves by rules
5. Application of these rules allows control (logic)
6. No model is without error (incompleteness)
7. The rules exist only as probabilities (imprecision)

contradict this. But I'd argue that the duality is considered by propositions 1 - 3 inclusive. These notions of philosophy can be independently observed by rational people. Campbell and Schopenhauer's view has been independently verified by me. This is true of all good theories. They should be able to be easily and independently discovered.
