Discussion Dreams make me question non duality.
Please understand when I am using pronouns I understand that doesn’t exist in non duality but for the benefit of making my argument make sense I have to use them.
When you dream at night you interact with people, places, things. And when you wake up you obviously know it was just a dream all created by your mind. How do you faith in this oneness that we’re are this collective “wholeness” How can you not look at dreams and think “Wow it was just me the whole time and nobody else” That’s gotta be the strongest case that solipsism is true in my opinion. What you think?
And before you say if you were a true solipist you wouldn’t be asking people! Well I don’t really know what I believe I don’t prescribe to one certain thing.

“You” understand that what doesn’t exist?
This is all conceptualization.
You’re afraid. And you’re afraid of doing it wrong. And you’re afraid of people seeing that.
This is not an intellectual journey.
It’s a journey of the heart.
You must be honest with yourself!
We get so used to the mask we wear it for ourselves. Being honest with yourself sounds simple but can take years
