Monism

====Sikhism====
{{Main|God in Sikhism}}
Sikhism complies with the concept of Absolute&nbsp;Monism. Sikh philosophy advocates that all that our senses comprehend is an illusion; God is the ultimate reality. Forms being subject to time shall pass away. God's Reality alone is eternal and abiding.<ref>{{Cite news|url=https://www.allaboutsikhs.com/sikhism-articles/the-idea-of-the-supreme-being-god-in-sikhism|title=The Idea Of The Supreme Being (God) In Sikhism – Sikhism Articles – Gateway to Sikhism|work=Gateway to Sikhism|access-date=2017-12-14|language=en-gb}}</ref>&nbsp;The thought is that Atma (soul) is born from, and a reflection of, ParamAtma (Supreme Soul), and "will again merge into it", in the words of the fifth guru of Sikhs, [[Guru Arjan]], "just as water merges back into the water."<ref>{{Cite encyclopedia|url=https://www.thesikhencyclopedia.com/metaphysics/atma|title=ATMA|last=Gujral|first=Maninder S|encyclopedia=The Sikh Encyclopedia -ਸਿੱਖ ਧਰਮ ਵਿਸ਼ਵਕੋਸ਼|date=19 December 2000|access-date=2017-12-14|language=en-gb}}</ref>

God and Soul are fundamentally the same; identical in the same way as Fire and its sparks. "Atam meh Ram, Ram meh Atam" which means "The Ultimate Eternal reality resides in the Soul and the Soul is contained in Him". As from one stream, millions of waves arise and yet the waves, made of water, again become water; in the same way all souls have sprung from the Universal Being and would blend again into it.<ref>{{Cite book|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=rFm9_Jc1ykcC&q=atma+merges+in+parmatma+sikhism&pg=PA266|title=A Complete Guide to Sikhism|last=Singh|first=Jagraj|date=2009|publisher=Unistar Books|isbn=9788171427543|pages=266|language=en}}</ref>
