The solipsist thinks their finite mind is the only thing that exists, but reality cannot be reduced to something finite.

What if you've realized that everything is inside your Mind?

Or the world is your Mind.

@Vibes That doesn't contradict solipsism.

Only the truth is true. No belief, whether religious, social or scientific, is true in and of itself.

What this inquiry misses is that whether we subscribe to Y or Z, in the end we still fundamentally don't know what's true. In our experience, we just exchanged a set of beliefs for another. The point is to directly know and realize what is true, not to adopt a set of thoughts, usually from another, that you like and feel validated by.

Ask yourself: Am I deeply and directly conscious of the absolute? In my experience, have I realized, without the slightest doubt, what the absolute, life and reality are? That should open up some doors for contemplation, and offer an opportunity for deeper self-honesty.

Yeah, that IS solipsism.

You said that solipsism is false.

I'm saying everything is inside my Mind, even my body.

@Vibes Solipsism = Non-Solopsism since All There Is is One.

Making an assertion without any argument and asking others to prove you wrong is intellectually lazy. The burden of proof is on the one making the assertion.

@Eternal Unity Okay, but when you say solipsism you are saying there is only one conscious being, other people have no consciousness of their own, places and things outside your awareness don't exist.

It was clear to me that nothing exists outside my Mind, an outside is actually inside. My room was my Mind, and the outer world, people outside was a thought, inside Mind.

True.

The only being that is conscious is not a person, so to say that other people have no consciousness is meaningless, because no person has consciousness in the first place. The person, the human character, does not have consciousness. It's an apparent limitation of consciousness, which we refer to as perception (sights, sounds, smells, tastes, sensations, etc.). Consciousness is an infinite being, not a finite person.

Absolutely not. The entire universe is not the same thing as a single human being.
