Slut Theory

[image error] The thing that gets me is that Buddhist thought (and some other religions), as well as modern science, seem to accept the fact that reality as we see it is an illusion. The world is shaped by our thoughts. That isn't what blows my mind. That is old hat. In fact it's such an old hat that it's been gathering mothballs, and when I wear it outside in the rain my hair still gets wet. No, what blows my mind is still to come. If the world is shaped by our thoughts why can't I make a hot, naked slut and 10 million, thousand, billion yen appear on the table in front of me by thinking it? I've been thinking it for a very long time and my reality hasn't changed enough for it to be true yet.
We can draw 3 conclusions from this: 
1. My mind secretly hates me and creates a reality to piss me off.
2. My mind believes that even if this is an illusion that it doesn't work that way, because that is how my brain thinks it is and I can't just unthink it.
3. Reality isn't entirely an illusion.
I go with number 3. I think there are some elements of 1 and 2 in there, but 3 is the most likely candidate hogging up all the seating space like a sumo wrestler who didn't realise that it was his turn to be in the ring. I think there is some huge massive reality out there and our tiny human minds can't comprehend all of it or even sense it because we don't have the right equipment - just like a cell phone with one company can't pick up the signal of a rival cell phone company, or bluetooth signals or FM radio or me shouting really loud at it because its so slow. All that stuff is still there. Also, Cats can hear sounds humans cannot hear. So it must be true that there are sounds that cats cannot hear. And why just sounds? Why not sights and smells and tastes and sensations of things we can't even describe because they are so far outside of our realm of experience? So if there are other dimensions and stuff that reality is set completely in place and is 100% unchangable. However, we create our own reality because we see a small portion of the true reality and try to describe what we can see from our perspective. Imagine a 2D person looking into a 3D world. He would only be able to see a line because his perceptions can't pick up 3D at all… That's us. 
Similarly, to any higher dimensional beings who can perceive more than we can, we must seem like nothing more (at best) than mindless AI drones in a computer game and we all know how much we love torturing those dudes so should they set their sights (or whatever) on our dimension we are "FUBAR"ed - big time!
I think all this accounts for the many ways in which our minds can trick us and alter perceptions but also for the reason why there are no hot sluts on my table. Agreed?
