or is what is truly real one step removed from your perception of it?
or is what we call "real" -- what we infer on the basis of our senses -- still not the true "reality", but something supernatural?
Opine with reasons.

There are as many realities as there are minds to perceive them. My reality is as real as real can be, and so is yours, but they differ according to our biases, (due to sensual conditioning).
I think an unbiased reality exist, and that we can, unconsciously, “intuit” real truths, but when those truths are conveyed to our conscience mind they are modified to fit within the confines of our individual realities.
IE. Our intellect lies to us

Go a week without food and tell me your arguments about reality in front of a box of Krispie-Cremes, Think they will need 'supernatural' assistance getting to your mouth

In general, we experience the world as being filled with 'objects'. We also usually experience the world as if we too are separate 'objects'.
This experience is true, but not the whole truth. No object exists completely independently and all 'objects' are primarily empty.
It is this interconnectedness, dependence and 'emptiness' that we normally do not experience.

i experience my "real " world,,,,,, reality is often based on perception, so just as my perceptions of things/situations change,, so does my reality,,,,,,,i think there are some things that you can isolate as real, whether events or objects,,, , certain things just are,,,, then it becomes individual as to what these things mean/meant
not sure what your last sentence means, as i feel there are real natural and real supernatural things

yes, and it's harsh one
you know the truth but it seems like you're the only one who's aware of it. People will just reject whatever you say
