Reality and Illusion

In his most recent writings (available on-line), Ken Wilber really shows his brightness. Take this idea, for example: "everything is real in its own worldspace". This puts and end to the old philosophical problem about reality and illusion. It's Nagarjuna approach coming again. Better yet, this deconstructs the original question. To say that everything is an illusion is to say that everything is real.

Lama Padma Samten says there is no reality, just beings who experience reality. No reality, just a sense of reality. Ken Wilber, in his Integral Post-Metaphysics, explains that there are infinite worlds enacted by infinite beings in this crazy hall of mirrors... Have you seen Waking Life?

Waking Life... pretty good movie!

Quick comment:
In my worldspace everything seems pretty damn real!!!
It sure is a "crazy hall of mirrors" but ultimately our own experiences are what matters the most!
