	CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Monism
		Theism does not deny that God is indwelling in the universe; but it does deny that He is comprised in the universe.
		Theism does not deny that the universe is a manifestation of God; but it does deny that the universe has no reality of its own.
		Theism is, therefore, dualistic: it holds that God is a reality distinct from the universe and independent of it, and that the universe is a reality distinct from God, though not independent of Him.

		Radhakrishnan, summarizes the essence of monistic theism which is the essential teaching of Hinduism, of Saivism and of Saiva Siddhanta.
		This is the essence of monistic theism, the doctrine of monistic Saiva Siddhanta.
		It is to the credit of the ancient Saivite saints and siddhars that their profound comprehension of the ultimate nature of things is only now being understood and adopted by modern philosophers as the definitive conclusion which corrects the errors (and incorporates the strengths) of both monism and dualism in a truly enlightened way.

	Pantheism and Panentheism
		Classical Theism holds that eternity is in God and time is in the world but believes that, since God's eternity includes all of time, the temporal process now going on in the world has already been completed in God.
		To be sure, Classical Theism holds to the freedom of man but insists that this freedom is compatible with a divine omniscience that includes his knowledge of the total future.
		The rising influence of this Theism was later eclipsed by Purusa, who was also represented in Rigveda X. In a creation myth Purusa was sacrificed by the gods in order to supply (from his body) the pieces from which all the things of the world arise.

		Dualistic theism is professed as firmly as ever at all catholic seats of learning, whereas it has of late years tended to disappear at our british and american universities, and to be replaced by a monistic pantheism more or less open or disguised.
		But in scholastic theism we find truth already instituted and established without our help, complete apart from our knowing; and the most we can do is to acknowledge it passively and adhere to it, altho such adhesion as ours can make no jot of difference to what is adhered to.
		If we give to the monistic subspecies the name of philosophy of the absolute, we may give that of radical empiricism to its pluralistic rival, and it may be well to distinguish them occasionally later by these names.

		Monistic theism is the soul of Saivism and therefore it is the soul of the Tamil people.
		It is monistic theism that will unite all the Tamils the world over in a one unanimity of belief, worship and understanding.
		Monistic theism, that all-embracing and ancient path which is common among all Saivite sects, is the solution to international unity among the Tamil peoples in the 20th century as it was 5000 years ago, for its theology closes the door to conversion and puts the heart and mind at peace.

	Monism - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		There are monist polytheists and panentheists in Hinduism (particularly in Advaita and Vishistadvaita respectively), Judaism (especially in Kabbalah), in Christianity (especially among Oriental Orthodox, Eastern Orthodox, and Anglicans) and in Islam (among the Sufis, especially the Bektashi).
		Monism is found in the Rig Veda, in which hymnists speak of one being-non-being that 'breathed without breath,' and which singular force self-projected into the cosmic existence.Nevertheless, the first system in Hinduism that clearly, unequivocably explicated absolute monism was that of Advaita (or nondualist) Vedanta (see Advaita Vedanta) as expounded by Adi Shankaracharya.
		Christianity, being monotheistic, can be said to combine both Monistic and Dualistic assumptions, akin to Neoplatonic thought such as expressed by Plotinus, ultimately concluding that there is one transcendent, immanent, omnipotent, ineffable God.

		Open Theism, by contrast, asserts that, due to the nature of time, God's omniscience does not mean he can predict the future.

	Monism (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06)
		Acosmic monistic spiritual practice emphasises attaining the Absolute through a kind of intellectual or conceptual realisation.
		This may involve holding the thought that "I am that" (the Absolute), as in the of the Advaita Vedanta school and its recent advocates; or alternatively through a standing back and simply watching the thoughts and sensations arise and pass away; realising all the time that they are not a part of one's true Self.
		So whereas the Western monistic philosophers (Zeno, Spinoza, etc.), tend to be pantheistic, the Indian philosophies and religions tend be Acosmic.

		Some traditions hold that the creator is also the sustainer (as in theism), while others argue that their God is no longer involved in the world after creation (as in deism).
		But even though Akhenaten's hymn to Aten offers strong evidence that Akhenaten considered Aten to be the sole, omnipotent creator, Akhenaten's program to enforce this monotheistic worldview ended with his death; the worship of other gods beside Aten never ceased outside his court, and the older polytheistic cults soon regained precedence.
		Other early examples of monotheism include two late rigvedic hymns (10.129,130) to a Panentheistic creator god, Shri Rudram, a Vedic hymn to Rudra, an earlier aspect of Shiva, which expressed monistic theism, and is still chanted today; the Zoroastrian Ahuramazda and Chinese Shang Ti.
