How a Solipsist walks down the street and perceives reality

Good video I want to share.

Yep, BS. Stop believing in yourself first.

[Dazgwny]

You say bs. But if you are god, I’d like to understand where you believe him to be wrong on this matter? Because god is everything, and you are god, so what exactly is the bs he’s talking here? I don’t know if you subscribe to god being infinite imagination, whether you’ve had awakenings or not? I’m just interested in what bs you assume he is talking

I understand it's hard not to hear that as a negative, but it is not about making yourself wrong or starting a war between two aspects of yourself, so to speak. You're perfectly fine.

The place where these things come from, however, is a fantastical world of one's own making. It's mere philosophy. Like, I bet my money the guy on the video has a solid sense of self to which he's attached, like everyone else.

I thought it was funny … yes I agree with you . Its almost an intuition, self recognize self, how we sometimes can sense if someone is speaking from a place of having a self like most of us or is genuinely speaking from “another place”(place of no place). Not that it’s necessarily important because I agree we should be concerned with ourselves first and foremost (in healthy way, I know what u meant originally, spiritually, ). But maybe if we can recognize clearly duality it’s a step towards recognizing non duality (now I’m just philosophizing) …

"You" have never walked down any street.

To awaken you might have to shit on yourself but I think after you awaken you can learn to be confident again. I think you are supposed to do that but I dunno.

Yeah, maybe. I'd also add that it is possible to discover the truth for oneself, and being a 'special' person is not necessary at all - just in case that's assumed, which is an easy trap to fall into. I appreciate that you admit that it's essentially just mental masturbation.
