Retard here. Not sure I agree with any of these as THE one answer to the question. I think our perspective colors our search for the truth of existence, and in some ways searching for it is like trying to look at the back of your own eyeball. I don't have a concrete answer to the question but I think we should speak of things as being continuous rather than discrete if we are to arrive at such an answer.

Dualism is self-refuting by default. So that leaves you with one thing or many things. Reading on this topic which I like The One and the Many by RJ Rushdoony.

The apparent plurality of things can be accounted for by having them be images or aspects of the One, multiple real entities is completely unnecessary. One existent thing is more parsimonious.

Everything is of one origin thinking itself into existence. Mind as separate substance from existence was always moronic.

There is one and many, but the many set still part of The One, but the many are not The One, so that ultimate oneness belong only to The One, but that there is a sort of oneness between The One and its subsidiary many.
