In depth about the 'illusion'

..

 

Awesome video... She has a true grasp on life and very insightful. It really makes you think what else you would discover if you did for some reason lose your sight, even for 3 days.

 

well, she seems to be under the impression that she's 'alone'... and she isn't.

cool idea though.

 

This woman is very confused!

When we try to answer questions that we do not need to know the answer to we inevitably find ourselves in a state of paranoia.

Reality is about what we experience and our experience of this reality is very real. It would not be wise to downplay or discredit how real our experience is. We have a life to live so let's live. Whether or not what we're experiencing is there when we are not perceiving it is irrelevant and it is a waste of our time to question such things.

You are experiencing reality and if that's not real enough for you, something's wrong!

 

well just because there is more than this reality and that this reality is not absolute, it does not by any means mean that it is an illusion.

 

QFT

This point you make, it is a very hard one to come to. As I sit here confused, one thing I come to again and again is: "wtf.... why am I looking for an answer I might not want, or better yet, don't even deserve?" things similar to that.

 

I didn't watch the clip cuz i'm on my phone. as it's been said, whether our existence is real or illusion, it's what we have. I think it's real enough, but not as fixed and sovereign as we tend to see it. my mind has gone to cosmic lengths to see that what we behold as reality is one fiber in an incomprehensible collective. a sliver of reality, but no less real. I often reach a point at which I can pick any existence I want, but I choose my native reality because i'm partial to it. all the different possibilities yet I choose this existence. because it's a choice I also choose my emotional constitution within this life, which colors it the way I want it colored. a quarterback can watch film and see the non-reality of the game, and the outside perspective gives clarity on how to perform within the game's reality, which is the quarterback's livelihood and what he deems real. the creator and the created are the same.

 

Some people seem to think that if something is an illusion, then it is not real.

Im happy knowing that reality is an illusion because to me, everything is an illusion, and an illusion is only worth less if there is an alternative 'reality' that we can have more faith in. That is to say, most of the 'recognisable' illusions are just a small subset of the illusions that we are exposed to.

If everyone is under the same illusion, and always has and will be, then it is for all intents and purposes, reality

I dont know why, but before that woman opened her mouth, i thought she was australian

Right, but it becomes a moot point when you live in the matrix with no way of exiting the matrix. Might as well enjoy your steak, right?

 

Shes saying the world and everything is an illusion...

I like some of what she says but this is really misleading, we came from the earth, we are a part of it.

The earth could be heaven if we wanted
