Solipsism.[i]
1
Mind as I am known; I perceive
That is known to me and none other.
It exists in me but not in the minds
Of outsider’s; it’s my own domain.
2
What do I then interact with?
I know not, but do experience.
“Summum bonum” [ii]says Cicero.
I know not; yet omniscience I am.
3
Human mind; an organ or concept?
Sapients can’t find it in the physical form.
Yet claim: mind controls thoughts.
 I don't know that; yet omniscient I am.
4
All knowing but not participating I am.
‘Primordial Self’ the Vedanta describes,
‘Ruh,’ the Hebrews of Bible call.
 The Self, that participates not; yet I’m omnipresent.
5
‘Esse est percipi’[iii] says a Philosopher.
But about whom does he speak?
Not of me; I know he knows me not.
A riddle of an Oracle of Thebes indeed!
