from a dream in which he experienced being among thousands
of people, only to find that although seeming real at the time,
they were all projections of his own consciousness and on
awakening, only he as the witness of the dream exists.
Thus the world and all those in it are seen simply as the
projection of a single being animating a single body. In this
conception there is no distinction between the liberated and the
bound souls, since all others are no more than imaginary
creations of the mind.
Someone who considers that there is only one single j⁄va (or
sentient being) in existence is known as an eka-j⁄va-vådin (ekajeeva-vaadin).
The opposite view is that of aneka-j⁄va
j⁄va-våda
våda
(belief in the plurality of beings).
Quotes:
a) “In my outlook I alone exist and not you.
In your outlook you alone exist and not I.
In one’s outlook only he exists and not anything else.
On scrutiny all that exists is only Me.” 1
