Abstract

ABSTRACT This article offers an argument against solipsism, the view that there is only one mind that exists, my own, and that the world is a projection of my mind. In the initial sections of the article, we offer a reductio ad absurdum argument against solipsism. For context and clarification, we draw from a number of Asian and Western philosophers, including notably from the Buddhist philosopher Nāgārjuna. In subsequent sections, we proceed to address some of the objections to our argument against solipsism. We then conclude by clarifying the implications of our position for our everyday use of the concept of the mind.
