The Mysteries Of The Universe... Is Any Of It Real?

I Wonder

Is it all fake I wonder
This Life That I See
Am I just creating it with the eyes within me
All these people around me
All these animals
the cars
nature
Is it really here?
Or is it just something that appears because I am the one that was created
and with my creation
something else must be made
I can’t be alone in this universe
But then again, Can I?
I know I am not the only one reading this
but is it you, that is me, that I have created to witness this writing
Are you just another version of me inside of my brain?
If my physical reality is the densest part of my reality,
then what if none of it is actually here and it’s all just a manifestation
of what I am creating inside me
What if it all just disappeared?
Then what?
Would I remember?
Would I know?
Would it matter?
I see a Horse, but is she really there?

Solipsism (/ˈsɒlᵻpsɪzəm/; from Latin solus, meaning 'alone', and ipse, meaning 'self') is the philosophical idea that only one's own mind is sure to exist. As an epistemological position, solipsism holds that knowledge of anything outside one's own mind is unsure; the external world and other minds cannot be known and might not exist outside the mind. As a metaphysical position, solipsism goes further to the conclusion that the world and other minds do not exist.

Morpheus: What is real? How do you define 'real'? If you're talking about what you can feel, what you can smell, what you can taste and see, then 'real' is simply electrical signals interpreted by your brain.

Philip K. Dick: Reality is that which, when you stop believing in it, doesn’t go away. [...] I think that, like in my writing, reality is always a soap bubble, Silly Putty thing anyway. In the universe people are in, people put their hands through the walls, and it turns out they're living in another century entirely. … I often have the feeling — and it does show up in my books — that this is all just a stage.

A psychologist said, “They used to talk about seeing only ‘reflections’ of reality. Not reality itself. The main thing wrong with a reflection is not that it isn’t real, but that it’s reversed.”

The basic tool for the manipulation of reality is the manipulation of words. If you can control the meaning of words, you can control the people who must use the words.

wow wow wow! Thank you for sharing this, I love it so much and have thought these exact thoughts, obviously as you can see from the poem :)

I realized many years ago that we may be in some kinda simulation, just call me crazy haha

I could never call someone crazy who thinks like that, especially since I think the same! haha many years ago I figured that one out as well. :)

Average people call people "crazy" because we are different :)

good to see more crazy people here than average one :D Very refreshing.

totally agree! Glad to have you here @misslasvegas

I think different is the way to be in a society that pushes for you to be "normal" like everyone else.

I think we are on our way on the crazy trainnnnn together @stackin

@stackin the Matrix? Not as crazy as some might think...

We live in las vegas, we see the matrix everyday lol

I used to live in Vegas and before that I thought I'd seen it all...lol. Was very wrong! You're right, I felt like I was living in the Matrix.

the matrix, the blueprint of creation, the universal outline and web of the universe. - Nowhere near crazy ;)

If you break physics down to it's smallest point it goes on for infinity. Which means the universe can only exist as a concept. The concept can only be realized through an observer in the moment of realization. This is the moment of creation.

mmmm, thank you for this breakdown, such a beautiful way of putting it and so much truth

I believe in imagination. What I do not see is infinitely more important than what I see.:)

mmm I like that thought a lot!

A lovely poem. Things I ponder regularly. ^_^

thank you! :) They are interesting thoughts

We have all thinked about it i guess... : ) Good poem though. It felt really euphoric.
Should listen on @steem-speak... sometimes lots of good theories come up... Peace

Deja Vu!!! spiraling in inquiry, is it the dreamer or the dreamed who responds, who is witness to this divine intelligence, bringer of the new dawn?
