Can you taste gratitude? What does it taste like? What about Love? What would that taste like? What does that taste like?
sensory capacity. .0000005% That's all we really get to process of all the things we see/hear/feel/taste/smell/etc. its roughly 2 thousand out of 400 billion scraps of information our eyes/ears/etc. are picking up. So, in short, what we experience isn't the real world. It's only the small tip of an enormous iceberg. Our experiences are in fact determined more by our own thoughts than what is happening outside of us. And so we are not grounded by what is happening around us. We often drift into dreams, hear music no one else hears, and even, consiously or subconsiously, allow our thoughts to manipulate the things we do experience.
can you be in two places at once? yes. Until you make a choice.
does the way we percieve things actually affect the reality of those things? In all truth, this is an incorrect question, the truth is that 'things' don't really exist at all. Only possibilities. It's a question people have always asked. In many forms. If a tree falls in the forest and no one is there to hear it, does it make a sound? You see, until you force these 'things' to take shape by observing them, they remain incoherent possibilities. nothing more.
Our reality exists in our thoughts.
And With our thoughts, we make the world.
And as such, a tiny mustard seed is larger and greater than the kingdom of heaven.
Because within that seed is a world of possibility.
There are worlds within worlds within worlds, and so on, unto unending eternity.
So where are you really? Are you sure you want to know?
