We live in a holographic universe and reality doesn't exist past the point of our perception. Once you think about it, nothing is real until we actually experience it. The universe is a crystalline structure that creates the fabric of our reality. Time is a loop in which the present effects the past and the past effects the future. You and I don't exist. Rather, we are ideas of other we have projected into the simulation of reality. How do you know that you are not dreaming? think about it. Reality is what you can touch, smell, taste, hear, and see. Those senses are present in our dreams as our minds still have the ability to process those same signals even while we sleep. So why would it be hard to believe that our reality is merely a matrix of our existence?
Everything we experience and believe in the height of our existence is merely projected thought being interpreted on different frequencies and wavelengths. We perceive this reality based on our visions of what makes sense. Reality is no more than a series of information that can be observed. When there is no conscious to understand and interpret the reality, then reality simply doesn't exist.
In other words, you are a fabrication of yourself. So what is reality?
