Solipsitis - Shunya´s perspective on Solipsism

7 posts in this topic

How can you possibly know other minds exist?  Notice that other minds are a belief and no belief is true.

Solipsism and service are not incompatible.  You can still care and relate to the "world" and "others" despite Solipsism.

I can be lucid in a dream and realize others are my imagination, and I can still relate to them, be of service, and be a hero in my dream or in a video game.  

If I can be a hero in video games or my dreams, which are Solipsistic, then nothing is stopping me from being a hero right now.

All the best <3


“Our most valuable resource is not time, but rather it is consciousness itself. Consciousness is the basis for everything, and without it, there could be no time and no resource possible. It is only through consciousness and its cultivation that one’s passions, one’s focus, one’s curiosity, one’s time, and one’s capacity to love can be actualized and lived to the fullest.” - r0ckyreed

Saw this one today too. I think there's a difference between the realization of 'solipsism' vs acting from such a place in day to day life which seems to be what Shunya is pointing out, though I guess he's also suggesting it's a sort of narcissism rather than absolute truth.

I think he is critiquing Solipsism from perspective of still being indentified with the Ego. Not True Solipsism. Anyway thank you for that video. I resonate with his vibe and will check him out.
