The illusion is the reality. Reality comes from nowhere and goes nowhere.

Well According to Plato the world we are living is merely an illusion, and that our deepest desire is to escape this world so we can be in the world of forms, which is the true reality!

no, reality is the only solid, graspable thing in life, it's the perceptive of that is an illusion. take a crow. they're black. we all know that. But, if someone decided to call the crow red, and convenceed enough ppl of that, then the color we now see as red would be red. the color of the crow hasn't changed, only the perception of that color has. understand?

the reality of the illusion is the truth you tell you thrive upon the truth of the illusion while the entire reality shall never be seen for the truth cannot be the truth throughout

in essence... this life is mischievous and morose. death awaits around every corner waiting for the slip of the feet into the vast bottomless dwelling of darkness itself. The reality of this world will never be seen. For it will always be one mans word against another. 2 men can have apposing memories of a past occurrence but yet both men are telling the truth. There is only one reality. But there are many truths and the quest we are lead on as children to see the "light" is the illusion to hide us from the reality

WHO CARES?? it's all we have, so try n make the most of it. our reality is whatever we pick up on sensually; it's amorphous. it can't be proved to exist or not exist because it's on a plane we haven't begun to understand.

this is why ppl say philosophy is thinking about thinking.

First of all "Petey's" answer didn't make a frickin sense! And he spelled Iraq* incorrectly. And reality is in your head. It's not an illusion, it's what you have chosen for it to be in your own mind.

What is reality?  Is it built of atoms?

Atoms are built of energy fields.

Is reality energy fields, the Creator of energy fields, atoms, man, or perhaps all of the Above?

i always thought that there really isnt any facts because at some piont some one made up all the stuff u base info on so it all came from some ones imagination at some piont, for example THE EARTH IS ROUND no that is not a fact because some dude made up "round" a long time ago, and beside wasnt it a fac that the earth is flat 50 yrs ago?!

It all depends what is your definition of "reality". Everything in the world is vibrations (of different frequencies). What appears hard (eg a piece of wood) is mere vibrations at the core. Now, which is real, the appearance or the vibrations at the core of things. The onus is on you, i would suggest you to read about Einstein's theory of relativity, that will help you in finding an answer.

depends depends depends

on your perspective

what is reality? seems everybody love to create "illusion" and live in it, like movie industry, reality show, fashion industry, building image of brands, even self image etc.

so it s kinda blurred, cuz people often brings their illusion to "reality" and make it as their reality. and sometimes do "make up touch" to their reality juz because to make them feel "comfortable"

blah blah blah..
