What is Reality?
Simply put, reality as we "experience" it is physical and separate. Yet the only source of everything is purely non-physical and conscious. Ultimately, reality is dualistic in nature.
Consider that everything in our physical reality is made up of atoms. Yet atoms are more
than 99.9% empty. The paradox of being both physical, yet non-physical at the same time makes complete sense once one understands how and why one becomes the other.
Reality is merely an illusion, albeit a very persistent one. ~ Albert Einstein, German-born Theoretical physicist
A wise man realizing that the world is but an illusion, does not act as if it is real, so he escapes the suffering. ~ The Buddha
In a deep metaphysical sense, all that is conditioned is illusory. All phenomena are literally 'appearances,' the outer masks in which the One Reality shows itself forth in our changing universe. The more 'material' and solid the appearance, the further is it from reality, and therefore the more illusory it is. ~ Annie Besant, British Theosophist
The world is his who can see through it's pretension. - See it to be a lie, and you have already dealt it it's immortal blow. ~ Ralph Waldo Emerson, American essayist and philosopher
This place is a dream. Only a sleeper considers it real. Then death comes like dawn,and you wake up laughing at what you thought was your grief. ~ Rumi, Persian theologian and Sufi mystic

Life is but a dream within a dream. ~ William Shakespeare, English Poet and playwright
We don't see things as they are. We see things as we are. ~ Anaïs Nin, French essayist and novelist
What we see depends mainly on what we are looking for. ~ John Lubbock,1st Baron Avebury
It's not what you look at that matters, it's what you see. ~ Henry David Thoreau, American poet and philosopher
There’s a ‘One in Billions’ chance reality Is not a simulation ~ Elon Musk, CEO Tesla Motors, SpaceX and NeuraLink
Probability says you are more likely a simulated being than a biological one.
~ Rizwan Virk, MIT Professor
Nothing exists except atoms and empty space; everything else is opinion ~
Democritus, Philosopher 460 BC - 370 BC
All the world's a stage, And all the men and women merely players; They have their exits and their entrances, And one man in his time plays many parts, ~ William Shakespeare, English poet and playwright
All matter originates and exists only by virtue of a force. We must assume behind this force the existence of a conscious and intelligent mind. This mind is the matrix of all matter. ~ Max Planck, Father of Quantum Physics
There is a force in the universe, which if we permit it, will flow through us and produce miraculous results. ~ Mahatma Gandhi, Indian nationalist leader
Everyone who is seriously involved in the pursuit of science becomes convinced that a spirit is manifest in the laws of the universe - A spirit vastly superior to that of man. ~ Albert Einstein, German-born

In its Essence, the All is unknowable. ~ The Kybalion, The three initiates
