I just realised something, i've heard it said before, but i've never got my head around it until now, everything that we see is made in our minds, my computer, keyboard, TV, etc. is all holographic. When I realised this I wondered why can't I put my hand through it or lift it up easily, well, because my hands and arms are illusion too, just a shell for this experience.
It's like people say, when people are shot or stabbed in fights or whatever, they don't feel it at first, is this because they don't realise, so their brains havent told them that they have been stabbed or shot, so as far as they know, they havent.
Also, people try and sound smart by saying: "If a tree falls over when theres no one around, does it make a sound" or something like that, and people think their being smart when they automatically say: "Yes", but, it could be argued that if theres no one there to see it, it dosent fall over atall because it is not there, it only exists in the mind.
This can be proven because I think it's fair to say that all we ever do is think, so, for aslong as we think, we will make up a reality for ourselves, the reality is our mind if you will.
What do you reckon?
