Question: Have you ever thought that maybe we have imagined life itself!?

Yes!. Which also lead me to believe, many, many people have a rather terrifying imagination!. But given there is no /actual/ proof, that would synchronize with the original statement, and that the proof given would also only be one's imagination!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Imagination is a process of the mind, as we all know!.

I guess you can say that's true, that we've imagined life!. We think of it as being the real thing because our senses are reacting to an outer influence, whatever it may be, and this is registered in the brain and the mind makes a concept of what it sees, thinks, and this mental image is regarded as the "real!." This is the world of cause and effect based on physical reaction and the limited perception abilities of the mind, that is, the intellect!.

However, the fact is that whatever you do perceive with your senses is at best only temporary, or transitory, in this world!. There is nothing permanent about the physical realm, all of which is born (created) and will be dissolved eventually into its original elements!.

We can well ask then, "what is the real!?" What's real does not change and is eternal!. It is beyond time and space!. When you quieten the mind and slow your thoughts, you enter into a realm of peace that does not come from outward things, only from within!. When you close your eyes there is no up or down, no dimensions in space!. It is just simple "BEING" that you find yourself experiencing!. This is the gateway to the inner realm where man becomes a centre of awareness and there is no limitation of time and space!. Then it is an inward journey of discovery!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Logically, you will know life itself is not imagined as you could think in this way!. In fact, life itself could imagine that it does not exists instead!.

As time goes by, we know that life is real especially when very good or very bad things/situations happened on us!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
