What if...?

Question

everything that came into your reality was brought into it by you? What if our imagination manifests itself in a real and tangible way? What if the imaginative possibility of things is the future reality that you will one day experience? Just wondering, and looking for opinions.

me loathe you - seen them both (some time ago) good movies

joyrider - i like the way you think

Answer 1

I think that there may be a lot more to it than that.

This is more easily understandable if one considers the actual scale of the components of an atom. If one takes into account the fact that the neutrons, protons and electrons of an atom actually have huge spaces between them it becomes clear that the atoms that make up seemingly solid objects are made up of 99+ percent empty space.

This alone does not seem too important till you add the idea that the atoms that make up seemingly solid objects are more of a loose conglomeration that share a similar attraction but never really touch each other.

At first glance this does not really seem relevant, but closer analysis reveals that this adds a tremendous amount of empty space to solid objects that are already made up of atoms that are 99 percent space. When so-called solid objects are seen in this light it becomes apparent that they can in no way be the seemingly solid objects they appear to be.

We ourselves are not exceptions to this phenomenon.

These seemingly solid objects are more like ghostly images that we interpret as solid objects based on our perceptual conclusions.

From this we must conclude that Perception is some sort of a trick that helps us to take these ghostly images and turn them into a world we can associate and interact with. This clever device seems to be a creation of our intellect that enables us to interact with each other in what appears to be a three dimensional reality.

At least that is how I see it.

Answer 2

My life has been an illusion. I have created for myself everything that I thought to be important and deserving of my attention. It all turns out to be nothing. I am living in a world of my own making. I assigned an importance to matters that in the end have no importance at all. I am threatened only by my own mistaken creations. It never happened the way I thought it. It was just a non-reality. Nothing unreal exists. Nothing real can be threatened. Herein lies the peace of God. If it were real, it would have never been a threat to me. It was only given the meaning in which I have assigned it.(So, as you shall come to understand, everything we call "reality" is actually a creation of the mind)

Here and now, I have awakened from that dream to find the light of reality, the truth of my existence: a continued awareness of a presence that delivers me into my natural inheritance; calling me into eternity. I am having an experience of myself as who I am truly meant to be, an experience away from the illusion that I have created for myself. I have found myself. I have found my home in God. That is the miracle.

When eternal thought expresses itself within the frame work of space and time, it becomes matter. Our thoughts within the box of space and time cannot know anything first hand except material things. But we can deduce that outside the box of space and time is eternal thought. It is what we are and that which we call God. (God is spirit, nonphysical.)

Project (verb): to extend forward or out.
Project (noun): a plan in the mind.

Whenever projection in its inappropriate sense is utilized,(the noun form) it ALWAYS implies that some emptiness (or lack of everything) must exist, and that it is within man’s ability to put his own ideas there INSTEAD of the truth. If you will consider carefully what this entails, the following will become quite apparent:
First, the assumption is implicit that what God has Created can be changed by the mind of Man.
Second, the concept that what is perfect can be rendered imperfect (or wanting) is intruded.
Third, the belief that man can distort the Creations of God (including himself) has arisen, and is tolerated.
Fourth, that since man can create himself, the direction of his own creation is up to him.

Cold-hearted orb that rules the night
Removes the colors from our sight
Red is gray and yellow white
And we decide which is right
And which is an illusion?

Answer 3

It is called the Solipsistic dilemma. It started as an argument to absurdity. If your premises led to that perception, then there was something wrong. Then some joker (I think it was David Hume) said well so what if it is,? and people have been wasting time with that game ever since.

Answer 4

That's like the plot to the movie Event Horizon (w/ Laurence Fishburne), and the movie Sphere (w/ Samuel L. Jackson). Awesome movies, rent them.

Answer 5

Jesus said that our faith would move mountains and in many ways it can be seen that this is true. I think that could be one very real way that God never gives you anything you cannot bear. He already knows what you have dealt with in your mind.

Answer 6

I think it's completely possible - the imagination has often been proven the starting point for many true-to-life things.

Answer 7

Sounds like someones Smoking something.

Answer 8

20He replied, "Because you have so little faith. I tell you the truth, if you have faith as small as a mustard seed, you can say to this mountain, 'Move from here to there' and it will move. Nothing will be impossible for you."

Answer 9

This is what Jesus taught, this is what will save you, not "believing".
Metaphysics came from this.
If you watch "What the Bleep do WE Know?" then you will see how some scientist believe this.

Answer 10

I think that's quite possible......even at a subconscious level this could be happening and us not realizing it.
