Perception, consciousness, and Reality
When you put something really close to your eyes and you see double, which one is the real one? You couldn't have just made two of something, yet we usually consider what we see as real. Does reality exist within perception or within matter. Technically, most people would say that you did not just create two of something, it is just a limitation of one sense to understand reality. So therefore, if perception and reality are not necessarily combined, and our counsciousness lives within our perception; we may choose not to live within reality.
