Yes. This is Non-dualism…. Advaita Vedanta.

Only one thing exists.

I agree.

This is also found in The Ethics of Spinoza…

It is not a belief system.

It is the ultimate knowledge.

Alduos Huxley calls it the Perennial Philosphy….

It’s a very good book. https://amzn.to/3eyOMCS

We have more in common than you realize.

right, so monism begets dualism, which then gets fused into a new monism, repeat.

It is not a Belief.

This is the knowledge of Non-dualism.

Called Advaita Vedanta.

Most people will never understand this concept.

Maybe Only the students of Advaita Vedanta and Spinoza… people like Albert Einstein.

Advaita Vedanta (/ʌdˈvaɪtə vɛˈdɑːntə/; Sanskrit: अद्वैत वेदान्त, IAST: Advaita Vedānta) is a Hindu sādhanā, a path of spiritual discipline and experience, and the oldest extant tradition of the orthodox Hindu school Vedānta. The term Advaita (literally "non-secondness", but usually rendered as "nondualism", and often equated with monism refers to the idea that Brahman alone is ultimately real, while the transient phenomenal world is an illusory appearance (maya) of Brahman. In this view, (jiv)Ātman, the experiencing self, and Ātman-Brahman, the highest Self and Absolute Reality, is non-different. The jivatman or individual self is a mere reflection or limitation of singular Ātman in a multitude of apparent individual bodies.

Yeah…. I believe in the God of Spinoza.

Jesus said,

"I am the light that is over all things. I am all: from me all came forth, and to me all attained.
Split a piece of wood; I am there.
Lift up the stone, and you will find me there.

Gospel of the Twin.- 77

2,500 years ago, Democritus suggested that all matter in the universe was made up of tiny, indivisible, solid objects he called "atomos." However, other Greek philosophers disliked Democritus' "atomos" theory because they felt it was illogical.

Atoms cannot be subdivided, created, or destroyed
