Monistic Idealism
Monistic Idealism is a philosophical view that considers consciousness or mind as the fundamental reality, asserting that everything we experience—matter, objects, even the universe itself—derives from a single, universal mind or consciousness. Unlike views that see physical matter as primary, monistic idealism holds that the material world is, at its core, an extension or manifestation of consciousness. Essentially, reality is rooted in mental or spiritual substance rather than physical substance, suggesting that mind is primary and everything else depends on it for existence.
