Monistic idealism

Monistic Idealism is a metaphysical theory that states that everything in the world depends on consciousness for its existence. It is a monistic theory because it holds that there is only type of thing in the universe, and a form of idealism because it holds that one thing to be consciousness. In India the theory is known as Vedanta. Amit Goswami wrote a book about this theory in 1993, The Self-Aware Universe.
