Know what visualization is?

Know what visualization is? The baron asked. - When a lot of believers begin to pray to some god, he really arises, moreover in the form in which he is represented. “I know,” I said. - But the same applies to everything else.

The world in which we live is simply a collective visualization that we are taught to do from birth. Strictly speaking, this is the only thing that one generation passes on to another. When a sufficient number of people see this steppe, grass and summer evening, we have the opportunity to see it all with them.

But whatever forms are prescribed to us by the past, in fact, each of us still sees in life only a reflection of his own spirit. And if you find the impenetrable darkness around you, it only means that your own inner space is like night.
