Non-duality.
Advaita Vedanta is the school of the Upanishads that Shankara put in order in the eighth century. It makes one claim and spends the rest of its time defending it. There is one reality, Brahman, and the self you take yourself to be is not separate from it. Everything that looks like a separate thing is appearance, the way a coil of rope looks like a snake in bad light. Tat tvam asi: that, you are.
