Ask Jesus directions, follow him, walk "the way" from point A to B, from outside the gate to inside, ....and meet God the Father. Stay there, enjoy the honeymoon, and return back to earth as ambassador of heaven. |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 39454684 Australia 05/13/2013 12:38 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | It is described as an 'illusion' to keep it rather simple but when it is explained in detail, illusion is a broad word to use, although accurate. Human beings have developed their 5 senses over many thousands of years, senses worked well in the past, but are not an accurate way of translating what reality 'really' is. Conventionally, the senses are regarded as physical entities (eyes, ears, tongue, nose, fingers and skin) that gather raw data, which is then processed and refined by specific regions of the brain to create the particular sensation presented to our consciousness. So, neither the physical sensory organs nor the brain regions which process the sensory data can do the job on their own. However, there’s yet another twist to the story. We actually have two sensory systems: one located in the left hemisphere of the brain, and the other located in the right brain. If you could see reality for what it is it would be radically different, like in the film The Matrix: Neo: Is that... (looking at the Matrix code on a computer screen) Cypher: The Matrix? Yeah. Neo: Do you always look at it encoded? Cypher: Well you have to. The image translators work for the construct program. But there’s way too much information to decode the Matrix. You get used to it. I... I don’t even see the code. All I see is blonde, brunette, red-head. |
Anonymous Coward User ID: 39409791 Australia 05/13/2013 12:48 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | The Matrix doesn’t go deep enough. When it talks about electrical signals, it’s still in the world of physics and materialism. There is no physicality at all. All that exists is mathematical information (wave patterns) being interpreted by subjective minds. From that interpretation, the material world appears. The material world is just a convenient way of presenting incredibly complex wave patterns. That way of interpreting information proved successful in evolutionary terms. Had it not, we would be “seeing” reality in a totally different way, as our ancestors most certainly did. The “reducing valve” of our consciousness creates the “material” interpretation of reality with which we have become so familiar. True reality is just an incomprehensible blur of overlapping, interfering sine and cosine waves. |

As a matter of fact, colour IS purely a construct of the human mind, & that fact about colour is a perfect example of the way we see 'reality' as our physical senses interpret it, rather than what it actually is. What is 'colour' to a colour-blind person? |

If so, how to get out of this existence and back to reality? Quoting: Anonymous Coward 39340797 Everything you experience is a real experience. In this sense there is no illusion. However, there is more reality than we see. detox your body and mind, become internally clear, meditate, and practice love, you'll begin to see the other world |
