Life an illusion?

Question

My brother now goes to college and when he took physics in high school, he told me that all life was is illusions. What we see, feel , do or think could this all be an illusion. This questions i for those physists =)
Whats life?

Answer 1

life is real and no amount of illusions can change it.

ANYONE WHO SEES THIS please answer the question in the Arts and Humanities section >Books & Authors titled: 'Excerpt from "The Lord of the Flies"?' please.

Answer 2

Im no physists but I can certainly agree with that. Think about differant mind-sets people expirience. How people can get very mad at a situation but someone else may think its funny. It all depends on how you are viewing your life. The world is whatever or however you want to make it. Its not one set rule for what life is. Its differant for everybody....an illusion.

Answer 3

Life itself in not illusory but the way we partake of it might be.
Everything is energy, even the appearantly inanimate, and is therefore, by definition life.
Our perceptions and observations may be an illusion and according to some quantum physicists all experiments conducted are influenced by the theories of the scientist who conducts the experiment.
If this is true then we are all creators too.

Answer 4

Cold, we need some definitions here. When we "look" at anything, we see with eyes that are colored by our personal experience. For example, two people looking at the same dog will have different reactions, one will love the dog, one may fear the same dog. The dog is whatever it is but the two viewers look at the dog with eyes of personal experience. Apply that concept to everything. Everything we look at we see with eyes that have very personal experience...which simply means that the light waves strike our eyeballs but the scene is processed by our brains. The brain processing unit is individual for each of us because it is based on our personal experience. So, what I see is based on my own life and what you see is based on your life's experiences. Since we don't both see the same thing, does this make it an illusion? I'm not sure but I do know that whatever I see is personal for me. Since we are projecting our own interpretation on what we see, it may be argued that we only see illusion since our projections ar only real for us, not for others. Perhaps all is illusory after all.

Answer 5

Not a physicist, but I choose to answer anyway.

1. Until you reach maturity, you are busy becoming....becoming something, getting the right education, becoming older, and finding out about love.

2. They you look inside. Yikes.....
Many times we are dissatisfied.

3. So dissatisfaction causes change. Then we find out the only one we can change is ourself.

4. Then we try spiritual growth. Ahh, GOD accepts us just as we are, we have the term "unconditional love".
Then we question our worth.
But GOD takes us back anyway, regardless of our faults.

When you put it all together, and you become more mature, you realize that goods and buying more goods and services, does not have that much meaning. Otherwise the rich would be the happiest people on earth.
The good people of the earth are the ones who look inside, develop spiritually, and are willing to share whatever skills, love, services, food, or housing they have with others. They don't save the world, they save people, one person at a time.

And that's the true meaning of life, helping people, one person at a time.

GOD bless us one and all, always.
