Perception - The reality beyond matter

Science is a story written by installments over time, and since so much information gets updated these days, I one day found myself wondering... What is "reality"? Is matter all that is real? One thing is for sure - change.

That might seem like a silly question given how we use our senses to interact with 'reality' everyday, but I have since arrived at ideas which I am comfortable with regarding these questions (although Im still curious). So heres some questions to play with - play nicely :-)

If I had to point to where my idea or concept of reality is maintained, Id be pointing to my head - how about you?

Is all this environmental information just vibrational energies which are presented to our body and then decoded to form a perception in the brain according to our programs and patterns? ie: Do we subconsciously 'read' or filter this data then build an experience that seems real?

Can I get outside of my experience to prove anything is fact or real, or is reality bound to ones experience like the fabric to the shirt?

What of the realities I have when I dream, - my body still responds as if they are real, so what is reality?
If I am not the cause (creator) of my experience; the director of my focus of attention on some level whether awake or asleep, am I controlled by something else?
And if I am completely controlled by something other than me, what then is the purpose of my life?


I wish you all - many pleasant realities.

Pete.

Cool story bro, time to kill myself.

Heh, you know, the world we live in is merely a dream....

i dont agree with this video mainly because its making absurd conclusions. the brain is just an organ to pick up information. a sensory organ picks up on certain stimulus. if this video were true we could make up a stimulus in reality. instead of hearing a bird first, you would be able to bring the bird in and out of reality at your own will. this video might be true but more research is needed

The brain is also formed inside the image of perception..

@Jesus2point3 . . . to understand, in reality what's goin' on. But before you go back to school to learn about God, you've gotta' open up your mind. Take responsibility for all you think, & everything you do, & you to can find the peace of mind, that knowing the truth will do for you.

One takes place within the mind, & your actions take place in time, of which in reality is limited. If you wanna' know the truth, you've gotta' do it for yourself, before your time runs out.

@Godschool1 Before the beginning was nothing but ALLAH, the entity that I know as God. The Word that you choose to say the Deity's name, means very little to me. I'm not here to save your butt, but to tell you what the truth is.

That's what Jesus 1.0 did & that's what I'm doin' once again.

The "International Fellowship of Christians & Jews" have labeled me Mr. Jesus 2.3,

and pushed the envelope with the God of Abraham, of that you can be sure of.

The Surahs of the Noble Qur'an can help you . . .

@virtuallyjesuschrist In the beginning was the Word. The Word was with God and the Word was God. Nothing exists that was not made through Him.

I'm a guy who uses my brain, of that you can be sure of. The Surahs of the Noble Qur'an can help you to understand, if you have an open mind, & know how to read between the lines. In reality it's a struggle that goes on in the mind, that's called Jihad in Islam. Some believe in the concept of God, while others believe the deity was a man. There are those who believe in nothing at all, & those who'll believe anything, but if you want to know the truth, you've gotta' accept the reality of it all.

@supobostarman To tell you the truth, God is Reason in my mind, the one that started the show, that's been progressing since the beginning of time.

For God is the Deity that I know as ALLAH,

the Divine Reality that transcends both space & time,

the Creator of the seen & unseen that nothing can compare too.

Stephen is Hawking "Nothing" as God, a place where time & space didn't exist.

He denies the existence of God, but acknowledges the place called eternity.

while his mind is filled with nothing.

[virtuallyjesuschrist]

In reality it's no secret at all, if you want to know the truth. Knowledge is the key to understand what's going on, but will you recognize the signs that you see in the light that's right in front of your eyes, or will you be deceived by what you perceive between those ears of yours? What you perceive is based on the place you've received the light in time & space. If you want to know the truth, you've gotta' accept the reality, that all is going according to the plan, happenin' quite naturally
