Advaita

According to my understanding of Advaita, Advaita is the state of oneness of existence and there is no scope in its philosophy for anything like non-existence. I request the members of this forum to share their thoughts on this subject and tell me if I am right or wrong.
=====================
Can we say if a certain thing is true, its opposite is also true?
=====================
It is possible a person at one time owned a car and later did not. What is ruled out is a person simultaneously owning a car and not owning a car. Simultaneously, at the same time and at the same place, it cannot be both day and night.
Is there a truth that is valid at all places and times - its opposite never existing? Is the proposition that there is only existence such a truth, with its opposite not ever existing? (Existence per se, that is – not the existence or not of a particular thing.)
=====================
Is existence life? Is there anything in existence that is not life or alive? Is death only a change of form and therefore a myth?
=====================
If dying means ceasing existence, can existence ever cease?
=====================
