A Question for my Twitter Sangha: is Non-Dualism the same as the doctrine of Emptiness? My experience with Dzogchen and Tibetan Buddhism confused the two (either they confused them or I did), but now I'm starting to see them as very different doctrines. What's your take on it?

I believe that they point to the same thing, although the various doctrines about to are often different.

You can also say that 'quantum mechanics' and 'general relativity' also point to the same thing: fundamental structures of the universe. But they are different explanations that work at different scales, so different that scientists can't bring them together into a unified theory

Yes. Amusingly, the fact that different rational structures cannot be made to perfectly overlap is exactly one of the points that emptiness/nondualism makes. There is always nebulosity in the mix, ala @Meaningness.
