Reality

Terry Smith - Writer, Producer, Author, Playwright, TBI Advocate

What is real?

Is a dream at night when sleeping real?

Although only a subconscious effect, it creates physical results. Fear. Pain. Joy. Ecstasy. Orgasmic manifestation.

When awakened, no longer are the things that were solid real. So convincing were these realities, yet they were not?

What happens to those real worlds created during dreams? Do they fade into a void of nothingness or do they squander around remaining portions of uncharted brain and live unborn?

Dreams come from the subconscious. The subconscious comes from the conscious. Can conscious reality then be so different from that which is a part of it? Since the most constant state and effect of a perceived experience is in the conscious, it is perceived as the true and only reality. Yet, in altered states, the same mind conceives other ‘True’ realities that fade when awakened.

Reality must be questioned as to the legitimacy of ‘True’ existence. If the most constant state of awareness is only credentialed by consistency, then what are reoccurring dreams? Real seems multidimensional. Real appears as a perception of a given awareness and physical response to various states of consciousness. Which then is real?

If physical things smelled, touched, and seen are as real in the conscious as are they in the subconscious, and the latter of the two fades from awareness when awake, the former is but, too, a grander illusion that fades.

Which then is real?

If idea is that which is not physically real, but that which is perceived, a deeper introspection of a willed desire manifests into man’s condition of his perceived reality.

The key lies in looking deeper into mind to manifest what is desired. Power to see and become the possible rather than only see and live the illusion of condition becomes real. Seeing the illusion of matter fortifies that strength
