Or Monism - Brahman? "Barry's not Brahman (He's a very naughty boy!)"

(IMHO Barry is a "perspective realist", not a solipsist. Though
he sometimes follows the relativist path so far, one wonders if
he might fall of the Cliff Of Incoherent Scepticism. That is to
say... the cliff that may or may not be there, depending on
your *opinion* at the time. Assuming of course that one can be
said to *know* one's opinion at any one time, rather than merely
opining about one's opinion...)
