You can directly realize that everything is conciousness aswell. But logic will do the job for now also. "Everything has the same conciousness" there, fixed it for you.

Just use logic. Everything has conciousness. If not, then it creates a duality. So just continue the reasoning that, if you have conciousness and everything has conciousness, and we are the same lifeform, then I too have conciousness similar to yours.

For this to be true you have to prove that I don't possess conciousness like you. And conciousness is everywhere. So it must be in me as it is in you. Therein is the debunk.

You're interacting with thought forms in a dream world. Some of those thought forms are generated by you. Some of those thought forms are generated by other entities. If someone is thinking strongly about you, you may get a dream about them and even know the theme of what they are projecting towards you etc.

The mind is both one and individuated at the same time.

I agree with you but the reality in which God subdivides itself into many parts and experiences creation through many entities as a concious sentient being is no longer the definition of solipsism. That's why this term solipsism is such bs.

Are there many bodies? Or one body?

That's called nonduality, not solipsism. Solipsism term implies oneness but denies the existence of sentient sovergn multiple individuals. Technically this term is only half true. The part about oneness is true, the second half is false.

They will pretend that's a feature not a bug. Whatever it takes to keep the cope going.

Ugh... I hear you. If only the was a way to get through to them. Reason alone would be enough if only they were willing to listen. Living in denial, plus addiction to superiority, inability to reason. What a mess all at once.

You're underestimating people's ability to live in denial. Once someone becomes addicted to feeling special, they won't let go of solipsism easily because it's their ultimate power move to be superior than others. You just label everyone you don't like imaginary and wualia, you feel like you've invalidated them. Sneaky ego defense machanism. But good luck explaining that to a solipsists.

If only solipsist were to use their brain to reflect on this... Maybe one day. In a bar...

If a solipsist were to enter the bar, the answer would be very easy because they are brain-dead. Edit. Maybe I should've said something less inflammatory, sorry.

I like this

I just gave you an example with food why that is not so.

He need not be a perfect example for the insight to be valid. I might argue eating healthy is wiser than eating fast food and yet still eat the fast food. It doesn't invalidate the wisdom of healthy eating even if I fail to do that sometimes.

Cool picture

self serving activity is not evil. The goal is not to eliminate self serving activity. The goal is to expand your sense of self to include everything. So that your self serving activity would become for the good of everything. God is a Self serving entity. Be like God. Be Self serving.

You surviving is part of what God wants you to do. You surviving plays an important role in His will. You're meant survive, and you're meant to do something useful with that life. Maybe rise a beautiful daughter. Don’t be ashamed of fulfilling God's will. It's the most fulfilling thing you can do.

I know right, I didn't expect to use him as an example either but his insight into this topic has value. It's based on a lot of experience in the end. Imagine having sex with thousands of women and then ending up with a conclusion that monogamy is a more natural, organic way. That's quite something.

This is evolution.

Oh, didn't know.

I was kinda messing around with that one.

You're probably the only person on this forum that has a high opinion of him. I'd like to see him switch roles. Being married to a woman with another dude. I bet he would invent a new philosophy pretty fast.

It's not scientific but still a cool one. Skip to 1:04:50
