In this conversation about solipsism and nonduality, a woman asks: if her essential nature is consciousness, and the world is the dream of consciousness, does that mean that the world she experiences is a projection in her own mind?

Rupert says: ‘According to solipsism, all reality consists of is your mind; but that’s not nonduality. What we perceive as the world is a result of an interaction between reality – infinite consciousness – and the mind through which it is perceived. So, the world as we know it derives its reality from infinite consciousness, but borrows its appearance from the finite mind.

‘We could say the world is the dream of the universal mind, but not just the dream of an individual mind. Just as the world you dream of at night appears in your single individual mind, this world that we experience in the waking state appears in a single awareness, a single universal mind – but not a single finite mind.
