  • Can a solipsist doubt?

    You program yourself? You might be a character in a Philip K. Dick novel.

    Oh tell me, i never heard of him. What would you suggest to me?
  • Can a solipsist doubt?

    My mind is the programming, my body is the simulator.
  • Can a solipsist doubt?

    Ok, and have you power over the weather? over politics? over war, over terrorisme? over climate?
    you don't. You are asking for change and nothing changes, until i take the decision ;-)

    That's not a treat btw.
    People protesting are doing no change , they are just changing their body.
  • Can a solipsist doubt?

    you are right, it's a state of consciousness, a point in evolution.

    i'm just sharing how i experience this point, and how my world is me pushed out.

    Am i talking to my self? All the time!!!
    So are you, you are just still living in the box, if you will expand your mind out of the box you will see.

    But thanks for showing me where you are in evolution.
  • I am the solipsist, ask me a question if you want
    @Noble Dust".why is it that if I enjoy my life, yours is made easier?"

    Well, if you enjoy your life, my body has no issues. It works like a well oiled machine...
    Every person in this world is like a living bacteria in my body, each doing their "job".

    @Philosophim: "But since only my mind can be known, aren't you really just me?"
    I am, your mind is just a tiny piece of mine. Could be a good piece, or a piece of shit ;-) depending on my imagination...

    @praxis: "Does a morning of studying a gray seascape make the afternoon more beautiful?"
    Never tried that, and i prefer studying a tropical seascape, it changes the landscape around me. Unfortunatly, to dry is not so good for the grass... But if i would persist, my garden would become a beach.

    @Bird-up (love that name): I wake up in the same place because my consciousness has a memory. Well more like people make use of time/watches... Memory only starts to work when you learn the lineair concept of time (i guess). But when i dream, i am without memory, so i could be anywhere. Well, i am in my sleeping body, my sleeping body is the scene... Like, i am a kind of an artist. When i make collages, i use elements, textures of pictures to recreate something. In my dream i then am in a place i recognise, but everything is different, different bed, different tv, different floor tiles, but the rooms (as spaces) are still the same, the doors are in the same places, the windows, the furnitures are the same, like a table would still have 6 chairs, but they would be different style... You should try this yourself. It would have the same effect in your dreams. Make a few evenings collages, for some hours... really get into making collages, creating with it. Your dream will appear as a collage.
    But the world is really not that consistant, its a projection of myself. So learning about that (yes there is still alot to learn of myself) it gives me freedom. I was sick two days, doctor said i have gallstone. So i breath trough the pain focus on the same old usual instead of the pain. I made an appointment to do an echo. No, no gallstone, and the pain was almost gone too. Is it coincidence, was there really gallstone few days ago... no one will know. I just rewrote my brain...

    Hope this sounds interesting to hear from the point of view of the solipsist.
  • Can a solipsist doubt?
    I think it's interesting to ask: why are there actually no solipsists?

    1) One you think the solipsist is sitting whole days on a solipsist forum?
    2) You think a solipsist is interested in philosophy?
    3) There are more fun things to do as a solipsist, believe me! If you were god, would you be wasting your time here? Or playing with creation?
    4) and now that i, the solipsist, am here. How can i help you? or let me ask you a more interesting question, How can you help me????

    many kind regards, cya later,
    The solipsist.
  • Can a solipsist doubt?


    You might be wrong. Language is created by the solipsist itself. He first started to communicate with the envirnonment with a cry, a shout... his reality communicated back. So words start to exist. Later he uses the words not only to communicate but also to command. His words are commands manifested by reality in wich he lives. Hope this helps. The solipsist.
  • Can a solipsist doubt?

    That's right. The solipsist figures out he is the only one, by starting to doubt everything in his reality.
    Then he starts to play with doubt to see what happens, to understand his power.
    Doubt his one of his many tools. With doubt he can change reality.
  • Wrapping My Head Around Solipsism

    Regarding solipsism: do you know anyone who is?
    — Relativist

    Hi, i am ;-) I'm not gonna prove it, or try to convince you, because that would only hurt a solipsist. But i will answer your questions.
  • Wrapping My Head Around Solipsism

    Hi, i am the solipsist, so i will try to help you. with some short notes, that might help you understand, from the viewpoint of the solipsist.

    We all perceive the same reality. I know it is hard to explain..
    The solipsist doesn't live as a butterfly in a garden. He is the butterfly AND the garden. All others live in the same garden too, but the garden is only equal to the solipsist.

    It'"s like the drop in the ocean and the ocean in the drop. The solipsist is a drop in the ocean. But everything in the ocean is also contained in the drop. The other drops only live in his ocean.

    How does the solipsist know that he is god or that god is solipsist? Because he test it, to figure it out.
    The solipsist is the creator in creation, but also creator and creation. So if the creator knows he is creation too, where should he go? ask that to a priest and he will reply, you are asking a really difficult question, one i never tought off.

    So the solipsist test it. How? well, he suddenly figures out that his mood not only depends upon the weather, but the weather also depends upon his mood! The clouds are his toughts. A clear mind is a blue sky. When he is angry, he releases energy and the wind comes up. He can really make it storm just by playing with his mind.

    I can give you many more examples, but i don't want to share all secrets. Only enough to help you out.

    I can tell you, being a solipsist is magical. And you have no idea what this means. When you think of the most amazing thing you saw, it is nothing compared by what a solipsist can do. It might even shock really hard. Give you sleepless nights...

    but don't worry, sleep well :)
  • Is God a solipsist?

    I am a solipsist, in fact ... i am the solipsist, the only one. Is god a solipsist? i don't know, i only know that a solipsist understands that he is god.
