What is Real?
6 years ago
Is that screen you are seeing these words on reality? Are you absolutely sure that what you read and interpret as thoughts in your mind the same as the thoughts in my mind?
How can you be sure? You have no way to verify that what is written here even came from a person. And it really doesn't matter that these could be someone else's thoughts rather than my own because the fact is that you don't even know who I am. I could be one of many people pretending to be who I am,or I could be a program even. You have never met me, and I have never met you.
I am not real to you, just as you are not real to me. This even applies to people I have met in person, because while not the case for people in a society that cannot tolerate change to status quo, I am always changing myself as well as my perspective and thus people who do not change will appear different to me over time.
The question is, why is this so? I know how and why it has happened. I am more curious as to how it is allowed to continue, what causes you to not want to change?
What will it take for you to want to experience reality?
