Its all very real, however I believe there are different forms, states, of this 'realness', that all boil down ensemble, to display the fact that they stem from the same energetic reality all things do...
No, this is not real. (Read as: Our perceptions are always at least slightly inaccurate, so our perceptions of reality are never *exactly* the real thing.) However, something real is out there. (Read as: There must be some type of "reality" from which our perceptions are derived, even if in this reality, our perceptions are complete illusions, such as in the Matrix movie.)
i remember in 10th grade, the first time me and friends tripped, i coudln't stop saying that... "is this real" "is this real", as i came back to reality, out a my trips dream. i guess the only REALITY is what i came back into, is living, it's absolutely inevitable. We all know we're alive, and this planet, well, we're living on it, inevitablly. NOW REALITY! to wrap it up into words... my goodness... zero is definitely very right, an individual's reality is just an interpretation of that REALITY that has no truth, we're just a part of. Our interpretations can be VERY open, and absolutely genius, but truly, they are just interpretations based on a world of learnt assumption we've gathered in our culture, dating back to the first thing we saw, and how we as cultural beings digested it. but in the same respect, noone can ever tell you you're wrong for thinking a certain way. Our perception is always in flux, ALWAYS, and to say it's not in flux is cutting yourself off from a journey of growth.
You ask a good question, I woke up at 4:00AM thinking about this question. If I may, I have a few for you: What is this? Who am I really? What is reality? Is there any difference between reality, existence, the universe, God, and you and I? What is it? Are all things equally real? or, Are some things more real than others? What is the origin of all of this? and, Why is all of this here? Who knows? I eagerly await your response.
What is this? Everything is a mystery Who am I really? You are a carbon based unit of organic living matter, which essence is one and infinite of an infinite universe What is reality? Lies beyond human peception in complete silence and is ever awaiting to be heard Is there any difference between reality, existence, the universe, God, and you and I? No What is it? The yin yang, dualistic perception Are all things equally real? or, Are some things more real than others? Real, depends on perception What is the origin of all of this? and, Why is all of this here? The origin is reality. the greatest mytery of all, all we can do is swim in the sea of it, for the infinite to expirience itself Who knows? Silence.
