everyone knows that no one can grasp the nature of reality. and that there is no emperical evidence that we can point to that says this is all real. we can only know our subjective perceptions.
when it all comes down to it it is all about faith that there is an objective reality. but do you have faith that this is all real? if so what is your proof? and how do you keep your faith in reality? dont you get disturbed by the fact that your faith could be wrong?

If I am experiencing something now at this moment that brings me joy, or wonder or even pain, why would I sit and contemplate if it is real, why would that matter. Experience what ever it is fully, deal with it or change it but do not waste your life examining it to see if it ever really existed in the first place..... Be in the moment or your going to miss out on a lot. I would hate for you to be so worried about reality that your own reality, your life, your experiences go on around you and you stay unaware of it.....

well i find myself often craving for the XVIII century life ,pure love,poetry maybe because in the real life i feel the ground sliding under my feet,and i wonder why is that three green,and i wish i had the power to stop everything for a few minutes,maybe the i can answer a few questions and touch reality in a true way,objective if you want.But here we are living in this dimension tasting reality only if reality let you,i dont know like wenn you get hit by a rock,silly eg isn't it

Faith has NOTHING to do with it.
You experience YOUR reality, based on the model of reality in your mind. The only way to check how close that is to the real thing, if you do things based on what should be the result of your doing, if the result is what you expected, your model is close or exactly like reality itself, if you fail getting the result you logically expected, your model does not match reality

In the absence of faith and reality how can one merely exist without the expression of ones thoughts.
Your Faith is only wrong if you question it enough.
Are you always wrong, if you question things too much?

Most people just believe everything that is before them without every questioning it.
I'm not sure what is real or what is not, most of the time i try not to think about it, because i know that there is no way to prove either theory.

I'd take the esoteric buddhist approach--until you can remove all conditioning, filters, projections, etc. from your "thought processes", you'll never experience reality. So true, eh? :)))
