 But again, figuring things out won't cut it, only an insight.

Kindly explain the distinction +address the second comment underneath the one you just quoted. 


 "When you get very serious about truth you accept your life situation exactly as it is. So much so that you aren't childishly sitting around wishing it were otherwise.If you were confined to a wheelchair you would just accept it as how reality is. Just as you now just accept that you are not a bird who can fly."

-Leo Gura.

That's the thing. Perception is what you're dealing with, and these matters go beyond this activity. Observe that you don't perceive yourself, that you can't locate or find the one you are. That's because experience is all you have, and you'll search there.

@UnbornTao there is no separate self or ego . There is nobody in the driver seat of my body .I have no idea how my fingers are typing right now..classic no-self stuff.nothing new here.

perception does not exist. Perception means there is a subject perceiveing an object.  Like photons land on a tree and gets reflected into your eye balls then to your vision center in the brain . No such thing. You are NOT looking at the screen right now .you are the screen.

All in all ..both points are absolutely disconnected from the topic of solipsism. 

Don't get cute and say "well there is no you to begin with therefore how can you be the only one "? You can do better .

@Someone here  The fact of perceiving is hard to deny - you yourself relied on your own experience, treated as absolute, as evidence that you are at the source of the reality you claim does not exist. This doesn't have to imply a self running the show behind the scenes. So what are we talking about? Anyway, I'm not very interested in pursuing these discussions further. They're mostly entertainment, in my view. 

It seems to me that your relationship to this matter remains abstract, as another form of knowledge. No matter how convinced we may be of notions like no-self, in your lived experience you likely still carry a very solid and consistent sense of "self." The main issue is that we keep talking as if it were something else, but it is your very experience right now - you. Knowing our nature allows us to clearly see that what we are is distinct from one's self. Until then, we'll fail to make that distinction for real, in our lived experience.

Some self with a lower case s right here 😜

Attempting to control and direct conversation (by demanding) in an attempt to alleviate possible humiliation - attachment. 

Just sayin' 


Deal with the issue now, on your terms, in your control. Or the issue will deal with you, in ways you won't appreciate, and cannot control.

Absolute Solipsism, the biggest lie in today's society. 

We don't come from ''a mind'' we come from spirit. And yes there is the creator, in fact there are 2, as reality itself, masculine and feminine. All reality came into existance we don't know how, we are certain that the complexity of life came through evolution. In the end, is not important how evolution functions of the creators. So us, the living, we are not the creators, those of us who belive we are God we refer to being not asleep anymore in the paradigm of society.
