Reality is all about perception
Life is an illusion, but for many people they would find this statement hard to comprehend, after all they look around and can see with their own eyes that life is indeed real, it is there all around them. The trees, buildings, people talking on their mobile phones, chairs, tables, cars, trucks, babies screaming, dogs barking, how can life possibly be an illusion they might ask themselves.
But the illusion which is life isn’t in tangible objects, structures or in things we can touch with our own hands, the illusion comes from how we perceive life around us, the real illusion is in our minds.
The illusion all comes from the way you interact with the world, how you interpret what you see, how you interpret what you hear, the meanings you attribute to things, your perception of others, and also your perception of yourself. This is an illusion, how is it possible for it not to be an illusion and for it to be anything else? But our minds our powerful and so consequently we see our perceptions and interpretations as real.
But they are not, and this is to be used to your advantage, because when we are aware that our interpretations of life are indeed illusions of the mind, then all of what we hear and see which doesn’t benefit us can immediately be discarded. There is great power in this.
Our minds are powerful and they really do and possibly even want to believe that it can’t be an illusion, sometimes we aren’t happy knowing this we want to see it as more, and it is via our amazing human minds that we are able to see (or perceive) it as more and interpret life in any way we choose.
