Beyond The Veil: Is Reality An Illusion?

Reality happens to be one of the major question marks in philosophy, metaphysics, and many other fields of modern thought. The theory that life is an illusion can’t be proven because all evidence that we have is from the reality we experience in a conscious manner. That having been said, physicists have been developing models in which the universe we see in the three dimensions that we do may be a hologram or virtual reality.


Reality is the concept that is so prevalent in our lives that we take it for granted. Yet, that’s exactly why it’s important to analyze life carefully and test the assumptions of this paradigm. The world as we see it today isn’t always the same as we perceive it. That’s why certain theories of physics with ancient roots are adding up in overwhelming evidence. They may really have an answer to the problem of reality.


Reality is a hologram or an illusionary form. So reality is everything that there is in our daily lives which is nothing more than a hologram which can only be experienced and perceived by the mind. Or could reality be everything? What happens when we interact with this form of nothingness?



Scientists at the Brookhaven National Lab in Upton, New York have discovered that quantum wave theory can predict the result of atoms absorbing light that make up the sun's rays. This makes them think that matter is affected by the invisible energy of the universe, however, just because something can happen, does not mean that it is really true. For example, you can look out your window and see rain, hail and snow but all these phenomena are just shades of one color – white light. It is the color of the surface of our universe that creates it but only this color can even be seen by the human eye.


What is real? Where do we draw our reality? The illusion of reality was once one of the most discussed topics in philosophy. Although those of us that claim to believe in an existence after death consider this a metaphysic issue, most people ignore such an obvious fact. We usually consider the concept of ideas as ideas and pretend that the thinking that went into them, and often the impression that was made is the whole existence. We make the "thought" we dream up a reality. We make the "thought" we always perceive a reality. We look to ideas as the story that will unfold and will be the truth or a lie, and when it doesn't meet up with the expectations we create, we cry.


“Reality is nothing but a quantum event. But reality shows itself as the polarities "0" and "1" and is displayed by Holograms and Computer. ”.


There are many ways to demonstrate reality including holograms, video projection, and computer animation. These different demonstrations are all based on the holographic principle which means that two or more images that are separated by a thick object like water will appear as one large image. There are many different theories about how this is possible, however there are many popular theories and companies that think it's real. Although holography does seem real there are some key challenges when trying to prove or disprove it.



A hologram is a type of holography that uses a transparent spatial light modulator to record a holographic 3D representation of an object. When an object is placed in the film, a representation of the object is recorded into the spatial light modulator. With a computer, the reconstructed 3D image of the object is then projected through the projection optics. Some holograms can even reconstruct a 3D image of a single atom at the nanoscale. Because of the transparency of the hologram, the reconstructed 3D image can only be seen in the direction that the light is shining on it. Even if the light is tilted slightly it will not be perceived by the person looking at the image.


There has been plenty of evidence to support the hypothesis of an existing universe - specifically with quantum mechanics - and the existence of a multiverse - a theory which posits that nothing is actually eternal and unchanging but everything and anything will exist in every possible universe at some point in time and with differing probability. The existence of a multiverse - or the infinity of possibilities to create universes that end in infinity and without any certainty that we will exist in one of them - points to a concept that has eluded many, including Albert Einstein himself, but one which is supported with scientific evidence as well as questions and debates between theorists.


I've only scratched the surface on this subject. You can find much more information on this on the internet.
