Since non-duality is one, and there must be more than one to make a shape, non-duality is non-dimensional.
From Duality Hack #1.5 in Alexius’ Duality Hacks
Since non-duality is formless, it is flat and, therefore, impossible to define. Nevertheless, it seems definable when observed from different angles, combined in various combinations, and distinguished by deeming some better. However, seeing such multiplicity is pure fantasy. Non-duality is oneness, and it takes more than one to be aware of something.

The non-dimensional nature of non-duality seems hidden by a dimensional world. But it is imagined fragments of non-duality compiled to simulate a dimensional world. However, arranging fragments into a dimensional world requires more than one, and non-duality is that which is One. Hence, non-duality seems hidden by an illusion made by nobody.

Compared to a world defined by time and space, oneness is smaller than anything else because it is non-dimensional. But since that means it has no beginning and end, there is nothing other than oneness. Consequently, a world defined by time and space is a hallucination.

When searching for reality, most look for something larger and better in a world defined by time and space. However, reality is neither bigger nor better. It is the formlessness of oneness, so it is not something specific somewhere definable. No worries, what is shapeless has no beginning and end, so it is everywhere, forever.

Separation confirms the non-dimensional nature of non-duality
The non-dimensional nature of non-duality is similar to the one line at the bottom of the above animation. A dimensional world is comparable to the tree it seems to unfold. But there is no tree. It is an illusion. Looking closer, you see that everything in the tree is the same line multiplied.
That does not mean that you should perceive everything in a world defined by time and space as one. You acknowledge it as it is. Time and space separate everything and, therefore, positively confirm non-duality. After all, it is formless, thus endless, so you cannot experience separation without it.

What you read on your electronic media is layered on computer code. But this code, simulating this post, is also a layer. It sits on top of the basic encoding of your media, which is cryptic to most humans. In short, everything on your media screen is constructed from something immeasurable. Likewise, everything in a world of duality is fabricated by twisting the non-dimensional nature of non-duality into something dimensional.
It illustrates that the principle of duality is to fabricate something definite from something indefinite and layer the spin-off on top of the original. Still, the conclusion is not that you must peel off layers in duality to get to non-duality. Nor do you need to avoid something, do the right thing or have a pure heart because non-duality is non-dimensional, thus infinite. Therefore, since there is no simulation of duality without non-duality, all simulation experiences are a positive confirmation of non-duality.

Appearing to be in a world where you are not
Without knowing it, new technologies most likely replicate how the world of duality is imagined on top of non-duality. That is what AR (augmented reality) does. You put on glasses that change what you see in front of you, so you appear to participate in a virtual world on top of the physical one. The augmented reality seems so entertaining that you tend to forget the physical.
However, the experience of a physical and augmented world is equally fake because it takes more than one to be aware of something. However, only someone comparable to the Enlightenment of that which is One seems to know that there is no more than One.

That which is you does not differ from non-duality, and since it is non-dimensional, thus endless, there is nothing but that. Consequently, the experience of a world defined by time and space in which you appear to be someone substantial, meeting similar ones, is make-believe.
However, if you believe it is genuine, you can quickly correct your mistake by pretending to be someone in a capsule of time and space because where you pretend to be, you are not. See Duality Hack #2.1-5.

In the early days of Hip-Hop, a tape loop, like in this image, with a fragment of an obscure R&B track, was put into a ghetto blaster. Here, the loop functioned as a unique piece of music someone breakdanced or rapped to on the street. Nowadays, in Hip-Hop, the loops have become more advanced. But the idea is the same: You hear loops of music as something new. In many ways, it is a repetition of how the world of duality is made with imagined fragments of non-duality sampled into a virtual reality on top of it.
Using loops of the whole to make it look like new creations
The way hip hop started is an excellent way to describe how a world where there seems to be more than one appears to arise from oneness. In the late 70s, rappers ripped their favourite part of a sound recording – perhaps a guitar riff – by cutting it out of a cassette tape to use as a loop in an empty cassette.
They played it on a boombox placed on the street, where they danced or rapped to it to entertain others. It was like the loop became something unique, invented by themselves. LL Cool J started his career in this way. Nowadays, technology has progressed, so sampling is done with computer software – often with many samples compiled into one that sounds like a new creation.
In the early 80s, scratching became popular when it was added to the dance tracks played in discos. It was done by quickly turning a vinyl record back and forth with the hand and using the mixer to add the scratching sound on top of the music from another vinyl record.
In short, you mix fragments of existing music to make it sound like new music. The same applies to the appearance of a world where there seems to be more than one. Fragmented and distorted imaginations of oneness appear to establish a new world with more than one.

There is no reason to wonder when the story of a world with more than one ends. It ended at the exact moment it started. You are just replaying very dear or maybe frightening loops of it.
