What is reality?

I apologize ahead of time for grammatical errors, this was typed quickly on my cell phone.

This isn’t a matrix thread in which I attempt to tell you we are all plugged into machines which have put us into this computer simulation. I am talking about the one we all have possible access to.

We use to be told that reality is simply made up of matter; in which all physical objects are broken down into atoms. Even this concept is overwhelming to the mind. For example, one atom would be roughly the equivalent to an apple compared to the size of the Earth. This is how we viewed reality. It is composed of these tiny little objects called atoms and that they are the building blocks.

Yet this theory never explains the make up of atoms. We have only recently begun to explore the make up of atoms. These building blocks have building blocks of their own. When does this stop? When are building blocks no longer needed?

We are looking at atoms, yes, but what are atoms? What are we really looking at? I am reminded of the words of the Dalai Lama, what if the universe exists within a single atom? What if we are building blocks for something else?

What is reality?

Simply stated, Reality is God. To be separated from reality is a good working definition of insanity. Therefore, to be separated from God, the ultimate Reality, is to be insane!

All true education seeks truth. Strictly speaking, truth is not a viewpoint or an opinion. It is a Person. Jesus Christ, Who stated that He was the way, the Truth, and the life. Therefore, all true education, if it is followed through to its natural end, leads to God.

I always liked the ‘Multiverse is the Mind of God’ idea. It serves to a modest degree as a paradigm.

P.S. Does not Quantum Physics indicate that the atom we observe we also change just by observing it?

I personally do not dwell** too** much (although there were times in my life when I did…) on such things. We may find out in heaven, but will we even care then?

While you need to believe in something, you dont have to… If you are looking for the truth, more than likely you will not find it, other than your own assumptions of what life and reality are Instead focus in what you see, feel and have around you. Be happy, most people forget that and they realize it sometimes to late!

Good luck and many blessings!
