KJ: No, they're not.

Kunga: Depends on what your definition of non-dual is .
Also, if something is non-dual, that, in itself implies it's nature is non-dual, so any perception of duality would be a misperception.
Also, if emptiness means that nothing inherently exists [everything is dependent on other causes for it's existence], form and emptiness are non-dual.
Form is Emptiness
Emptiness is Form
You've just contradicted yourself. Since form and emptiness are both the non-dual, any form or duality (e.g. a perception of duality or of non-duality) must be the non-dual.

Ok. You got me on that one. But there are really no contradictions if all perceptions [including a "misperception"], are non-dual.

misperception/perception = duality = non-duality

so all is non-dual....even misperceptions

oy vey

no right or wrong perceptions
all perceptions are conceptions
all are equally empty

No, you're making two mistakes there. (1) Perceptions aren't non-dual, they are made of the non-dual. They are actually dualistic in their nature, being forms. But all forms are parts of the whole, which is obviously nondual. (2) Contradictions remain contradictions, and non-contradictions ditto. Distinctions and dualities remain exactly themselves always, and don't suddenly become a mush of indistinctness. If you think so, you're being illogical.

no right or wrong perceptions
Internally contradictory. You spout these things like a canary, with no understanding of what you're twittering about.
