Unless evolution (and other creatures) are part of the solipsism. Yes, we have evidence to believe evolution is true, but no evidence any of it exists outside of mind. There’s a school of Buddhism called Yogachara that teaches exactly that, that reality is “mind only,” or “consciousness only.” Western philosophical idealism preaches pretty much the same line, and I personally lean toward that interpretation, with the caveat that none of this, including us, may be the fruit of our own little human minds. We may be embedded in a much larger solipsism.
