Same principle I tried to point out in my first response to him with me throwing a dictionary at his face. The point I was trying to make is that if he honestly believes monistic idealism, he lives contrary to that belief. If matter does not exist and this is all part of a greater mindset, why look both ways when you cross the street? That bus coming is not real matter and though it may "destroy" you perceived physical body, the greater mind should be unaffected.
We are not made happy by what we acquire but by what we appreciate.
