“Reality is merely an illusion, albeit a very persistent one.” – ALBERT EINSTEIN

When we look at a given area or place, instead of seeing all there is to see there, we are actually seeing a tiny frequency range within the electromagnetic spectrum called “visible light.”

there are many different forms of energy that are literally invisible to the eye. They exist all around us, occupying the same space and time,

this entire electromagnetic spectrum (of which light is only a tiny part) actually represents only 0.005 percent of all the energy in the universe. Even the “physical universe” that we can detect makes up only 4 percent of it,

Quite literally, at least 96 percent of “reality” is simply invisible to us.

virtually everything we currently believe about the nature of existence comes from trusting our senses, and yet those very senses can only detect an infinitesimally small portion of reality, we become open to questioning if we actually know the nature of reality at all.

You, I, and all those billions of people were born with a body that is a biological receiver/transmitter that decodes the world via our senses to show us “reality.” But how do we know that this body isn’t just showing us an extremely limited version of the greater reality? Indeed, the body is showing us only what it is programmed to see, much like a computer can only show us what it is programmed to display. And yet we have been trying to use what it shows us as “proof” of the nature of reality.

When we look through our eyes, we are not seeing reality but merely decoding information in the form of light and literally blind to everything else. We know there are countless other energies and frequencies that are just as “real,” but the human body (our receiver/transmitter) is not built to perceive them. For example, right now there are radio waves and ultraviolet waves all around you, but you can’t perceive them. And as we’ve discovered, these energies are just a small part of the electromagnetic spectrum (from which you only perceive visible light), which itself represents possibly only ...more

99.9999999999996 percent of the atom is literally empty space. 3 The nucleus seems to be solid but is so infinitely small as to effectively not be there. The rest is essentially a physical void.

effectively not be there. The rest is essentially a physical void. It’s like looking at an invisible tornado-like vortex of energy with infinitely tiny particles seemingly popping into existence one moment and then out the next, with the whole thing being as insubstantial as a puff of smoke. It can’t actually be touched because, as it turns out, there’s literally nothing there to touch.

Our senses tell us that everything is solid. Just pick up a rock and try to understand how there’s actually nothing solid to it and that it’s all empty space in reality. It’s difficult to imagine. The secret is in the electrostatic field that surrounds the atoms (i.e., the orbiting electron cloud). When two atoms come close together, their electron clouds repel each other so that the nuclei never actually touch. But you, holding that rock in your hand, feel that it’s very solid, as if you’re touching it. What’s actually happening is that you are feeling the sensation of electrostatic repulsion ...more

you are feeling the sensation of electrostatic repulsion as your hand’s atoms come into one 100-millionth of a centimeter of that of the rock’s.

the nonphysical tornado-like clouds of atoms are repelling one another at unimaginably tiny distances so that you have the illusion of touching something solid. That apparent solidity of touch is all coming from the s...

And as far as sight—that is, how absolutely solid everything looks—remember that we are dealing with an atomic world so small that you need highly sophisticated microscopes to see it. So it’s not a stretch to imagine how non-solid clouds of energy, which have magnetic forces to hold them together, can be packed so incredibly close together so as to seem like one solid object (like a human body or a rock), but in reality be nothing more than a very convincing illusion.

magnetic forces to hold them together, can be packed so incredibly close together so as to seem like one solid object (like a human body or a rock), but in reality be nothing more than a very convincing illusion. And so now we come full circle back to Einstein and see why (and there were many other scientific reasons) he so famously claimed that reality is merely an illusion. He was stating the literal truth. There is no physical reality. We, and everything else in the universe, don’t actually have any physical structure! As we’re about to see, this is all a very convincing illusion being ...more

the inescapable conclusion from all of these scientific discoveries is that “separation” is the biggest illusion of all. In reality, quantum physicists have discovered (much to their shock) that everything is connected as one thing that is merely appearing to be many things.

What we see as solid and separate is not actually so, but rather seemingly separate waves of energy within the ocean of universal energy known as the “quantum field.”

it’s all One thing—an ocean of energy that collapses into seemingly separate forms that we call stars and planets and animals and trees and human beings, giving them the temporary illusion of solidity and separation from their purely energetic source. But they always remain one with one another and their source. In fact, if we were able to alter the way the brain decodes information, then instead of seeing separate people and buildings and mountains, we would simply see interconnected waves of energy vibrating at different frequencies, not so different from the movie The Matrix, when Neo ...more
