Hi, :)

Not me - it's been done here too many times on many threads.
And in the past few months there are too many here that oppose even the idea.
So why bother. *shrug* (That's just me.)

Anyone aware of quantum physics knows that nothing is what
it appears to be and at it's core is light.
And then one can ask themselves, "What is light?, if they are so inclined.
Ha, so I did end up commenting!!

Prepare yourself for the coming astral journey of death by daily riding in the balloon of God-perception.
Through delusion you are perceiving yourself as a bundle of flesh and bones, which at best is a nest of troubles.
Meditate unceasingly, that you may quickly behold yourself as the Infinite Essence, free from every form of misery. ~Paramahansa's Guru's Guru

You started a thread the other week for anyone that was upset about this world being a dream. There was virtually no one there upset or opposing it. Thank goodness this place isn't an echo chamber though.

Also interesting might how the manifestation comes to appear. One story is that it is a hologram operating on all the senses which is why you cant put your hand through it as with ordinary holograms. This story would also have it that the mind is the mechanism producing this effect.

They never showed up.
I couldn't call them out personally.
They express themselves well on other threads.
Oh well, this was their chance to talk about it. They saw the topic.

Maybe it's best to try and address them directly. I know, easier said than done.

Maya is God's own creation which makes one forget/ignore God and God's rules in favour of any existential materialistic consideration .

Often people (even spiritual ones) interacting with materialistic world, gets trapped in lures of the world the effect their orientation changes to materialistic as against spiritual.

Other religions may know it by Setan also .

Maya is the reality that you are creating and experiencing in the present moment.
