Exploring The Landscape Of Perception
What if someone told you that there is a very good chance that you don’t live in the real world perhaps 90% of the time, that we only directly experience life maybe 10% of the time? I remember that I laughed when I first encountered this idea. But even while I was laughing I knew that there was a small voice deep in the back of my consciousness that was trying to sound an alarm or send a message or something. Whatever it was, I reacted with fear and ran away from the whole idea telling myself that it was silly, and even crazy, and in this way was able to dismiss the thoughts and avoid pursuing it any further. But I was unable to completely forget that little voice, and years later while meditating I accidentally opened that door again. But this time I was stronger.
