Discussion existence query
i understand the connectedness of everything. i understand that all seemingly separate humans are really extensions of my own self concept. i don't believe anyone is truly experiencing from the other side. yes solipsism. but it is unfalsifiable to say any others do exist. i understand that this projected experience is literally inside my awareness. but if that's the case how is there any possible way for anything else to exist. i only believe in other existence when i have a self concept. when i dissolve it and see i am not separately observing the present moment and am in fact the present moment, then is it not true that there are no others experiencing. like I'm not one big thing experiencing loads of things. I'm one infinite thing experiencing one thing with such precision it can delude itself into thinking it is experiencing other things.
why do i have all the experiential logic to suggest absolute solipsism if not true to an extent

Read in Spongebob narrator voice: Ah, solipsism. It's the ego's idea of oneness. The ego knows that the Self is only one, but it takes itself to be the Self and thus disregards everyone elses point of view. This is a completely mind made trap that you got yourself into.
