Yes, that’s the incoherence. The “pretence” you are referring to is not giving up but instead clinging on to the subject/object dichotomy (I, mine/one, their) that is supposed to have been discarded (no longer entangled).

But the real pretence is the self-aggrandising pose of those claiming to have levelled up and left the rest of us poor still entangled souls behind.

There’s no such thing as nonduality because nonduality is not a thing.

Paradox.

Non duality is a distinction, a distinction is a thing.

A distinction is both thing and not thing. Both, yet neither.

And yet these are distinctions as "both" and "neither" are distinctions.

This is absolutely, coherently true and correct.

Yes, these are distinctions, I concur

There is ONLY nothingness. There has never been something ever. Something is really NOTHING. You cannot divide nothing. All division is just an illusion.

Distinction is an illusion. All the same one love action dreaming difference where there is none.

While the word solipsism is dualistic. I would rather say that you are completely alone as God.

Every one is alone in their own aloneness. Every one is of the one. There is no other one.

I can do nothing for you but work on myself.

You can do nothing for me except work on yourself.

And that recognition is the entrance to the One Truth that is Absolute Solipsism.

Occurence is the division of nothingness by the cessation of nothing.

Same.

There is nothing but a thought thing.

In other words there is nothing but a thought nothing.
In other words there’s nothing but Solipsism.

“While not a universally recognized philosophical tenet with a single definitive source, the idea is explored in various philosophical and literary contexts, notably in Mark Twain's "The Mysterious Stranger". In this story, a character suggests that everything is a dream and that the only thing that exists is the individual's thought.”

After much contemplation about the idea of Solipsism I am starting to think Solipsism cannot be possible.

One would have to be two for solipsism to be true.

I'm still working on this theory/idea. Still not decided on it's validity yet. I'm still a work in progress.

One thing I know for certain is that I exist. So therefore, if I exist, then so do you. I still need to process the idea of multiple minds existing simultaneously..

Hey, better late than never. Take your time. You're only 60-70 years behind the other children, that's nothing to be ashamed of.

Thanks, not that I am ever ashamed of my own pet theories. If I was then I'm not ashamed to admit I was to the whole world. But it's not an issue for me, more, it's an issue for you, prove me wrong?

It's irrelevant what is and isn't an issue to a solipsist. If you come out of solipsism you'll suffer though.

Everyone suffers no matter what they call themself. Right or nay?
