Illusion & Reality

It is not those things which make sense which make sense, it is those things which do not make sense which make sense. The difference is in illusion and reality. Reality is reality - what is real or physical. Illusion is a mental projection or stipulation which does not correspond to linear thinking. Thus the two are mutually exclusive, opposed yet complimentary. For without illusion, reality cannot exist and without reality there is no illusion. For those who live in illusion, illusion is reality, for those who live in reality, reality is never illusion. This is the fundamental difference between the two concepts. To live in reality is to live in consciousness, to live in illusion is to live in mental intrigues of the mind. Reality gives freedom, illusion creates bondage. Reality is love, illusion is hate.

If we are to create a world of peace we must seek to address our illusions and convert them into reality, giving us a clear and neutral picture of the past, present and future.

Sat Naam.
