Is what I experience non-dual? Yes in that the "sensing" is global, boundless, without a center. The explaining is dual because I must use words such as "emptiness," which imply their opposite. S.R. says that we must establish ourselves in this state until it becomes a constantly blazing fire, evaporating all sensual and mental clutter before it has effect. Me? I am a sputtering fire, still falling back into darkness, conscious and then unconscious in intervals. The samskaras run deep.
I've noticed that ever since I started receiving and reading the newspaper first thing each day my mood sours, whereas before first thing out of the gate was spiritual reading and contemplation and good vibrations. I may have to resist the paper, at least until sundown when I can walk off the fumes. American air is humid with venom these days.
