s7e7v7e7n7 but if we distinguish between the opposites and the oppositeless, then how is meaning hidden in the opposites exposed through those thing that aren't.

While there are opposites in the world which do compliment each other, we do not live in a wholly dualistic universe. Often times the Eastern thought of the Yin-Yang are over applied to each facet of our lives. Such a philosophy is inherently contradictory to the Abrahamic religions which envision God as being wholly good.

This for me is most irksome in philosophizing over the relationship of good and evil. Many people often coming from a Western background, erroneously assert that good and evil are on equal footing, both contingent on the existence of one another. Failing to see the possibility of evil being the absence, rather than the opposite of good, making evil contingent on the existence of good, yet not vice-versa.

Ugh - Dualism

Because neutral is a state in transition from the opposites and cannot exist in the time frame either in the past or future !
their existence is possible in the frame of mind and present !
JUST THINK OF PRESENT BEFORE YOU CAN REALLY CONFIRM IT, IT WILL HAVE BECOME PAST??? Thus only opposites make up the whole existence

opposites are the whole, neutrals and other opposite less things are like a fluidly language of art with a gravitation to fill any uncovered exposed area with it's meaning.

Opposites attract, It is one of the laws of nature.
We live in a diverse world where all sorts of things exists
