Definition of Truth, What is real?

Reality is what YOU make it. Everything is capable of being real, or it would have never existed to someone in the first place.

I always say – gravity is pretty real.

No matter what you do to your consciousness, you cannot selectively remove gravity from your physical body… but having a trip where you seem to be in outer space talking to god and flying around… yup. how far down the rabbit hole?

@monkeyzazu, It is all about perspective. All that matters is YOUR understanding of the universe.

@monkeyzazu, Yea it is a lot of saying the same thing in a different way. I don’t think know anything without an some kind of experience, because after all, isn’t our brain function a continuous reaction to past events we’ve experienced?

The truth is before words about the truth, the words contained within truth. One cannot describe truth/tao accurately. :D

When I took LSD once I saw my homie in a different perspective. He didn’t do anything though to change my perspective of him.

Everyone you meet will have a different perspective of you right? and I saw my homie as if I was a different person. Just a completely different perspective but it only lasted a couple seconds. I think I was just aware of that very moment that while he was talking to me my perception changed somehow i don’t know.

That’s the closest I can think about when it comes to your question, “I wonder if anything outside that exists?”

Other than that, I wonder as well. jaja

@monkeyzazu,

@monkeyzazu, What has led you to change your thoughts about this? I am curious because I feel very pessimistic in the way I feel about the brain and have been searching for some evidence of other possibilities.

@monkeyzazu, There is no such thing as objective truth; subjective truth, yes. When dealing with objectivity it is a matter of correctness. Some claims are more correct than others, but they never bear truth.

Further, there is an on-going debate between epistemologists about realism and skepticism. Basically, it is as follows: You cannot know anything unless you know you’re not dreaming. You cannot know you’re not dreaming. Therefore, you cannot know anything. It may seem fallicious at first glance, but it is water tight. There have been numerous papers siding on each side but neither is winning the debate, it is a standstill. And probably a permanent one at that.

@monkeyzazu, Thought is merely a representation of a certain frequency or vibrational state. The languages or images of thought are simply representations of that vibration. So, my guess is if we didn’t have our language that the images used to represent the energy would change to something else. Probably more picture based.
To go even further though along the lines of truth. What is life when there is no thought in a present moment? Truth seems to be operating even when you aren’t thinking about it. So how can a thought which comes into truth and diminishes out of truth accurately describe it? :D :D
Just some words about it anyways xD

@psychonaut, But you do know you’re not dreaming. Haven’t you been living your same human life for years now? What about when you go to sleep and have dreams?

@psychonaut, Its not as water tight as you may think. We can know that we are(I am, or I exist), even if you can say you don’t know this to be true it only further proves that you are. Cheers :D

The physical realm of things has objective truths – they are the laws in which all physical matter and energy abide by.

However we are not completely physical. Consciousness is not physical. Our consciousness is intertwined and very much dependent on our physical form, but we are able to create these subjective experiences outside of physical.

In the subjective there is no ‘truth’ there is just the now.
In the physical, we have truths.

Who cares?

@optimystic, Lots of people seeking the truth of who they are and what is actually real care. Maybe (can’t be sure though) you don’t fall into that category, in that case why comment such a thing? Cheers :)

Truth is not to be defined. Truth is what defines us.

Nothing is real in ultimate reality, and Nothing is just about the realest thing you can experience.
