How do you define real?

What is real? concerned with independent objective existence, everything that exists in the actual world, existing as fact, rather than as a product of dreams or the imagination.

What is fantasy? an image or dream created by the imagination, creation of mental images: the creation of exaggerated mental images in response to an ungratified need.

What is a dream? a sequence of images that appear involuntarily to the mind of a sleeping person, often a mixture of real and imaginary characters, places, and events, a series of images, usually pleasant ones, that pass through the mind of somebody who is awake, experience vivid mental images of events while sleeping.

What is an illusion? something with deceptive appearance: something that deceives the senses or mind, for example, by appearing to exist when it does not or appearing to be one thing when it is in fact another, the ability of appearances to deceive the mind and senses or the capacity of the mind and senses to be deceived by appearances, a misinterpretation of an experience of sensory perception, especially a visual one, where the stimuli are objectively present and the mistaken perception is due to physical rather than psychological causes.

What is death? the ending of all vital functions or processes in an organism or cell.

What is birth? the origin, beginning, or formation of something.

Can you be sure?
Can you see it ?
Can you feel it ?
Feel?
What are feelings? an instinctive awareness or presentiment of something.

Can you close your eyes
And pretend you can’t hear,
You can’t smell
You can’t taste
You can’t feel
Then ask your self
What happened to reality?
What happened to the world?
Did the world vanish?
When you are sleeping
And you dream about
Lets say an elephant
Then you wake up
What happened to the elephant?
Was the elephant real?
If it was then where did it go?
Was the elephant just an illusion?
If it was just a dream
Then the elephant never existed at all.
All was an illusion.

If a woman has a dream
In that dream the woman
Have a baby, it brings so much happiness
To her and she is overwhelmed by joy
Then the baby dies
And breaks the woman heart then it brings nothing but suffering
Then she wakes up crying.

Would the woman had cried if
Some how she knew from the beginning
That it wasn’t real?
When you are sleeping
It feels so real.
So what if everything is just a dream?
Can you tell the difference between dreams and reality?
Do you know the difference?
Why doest feel more real when you are asleep that when you are awake?
If everything disappears when you wake up, then what happens to everything when you die?
What is death?
What lies after death?
Have you seen it?
Nobody knows
When will it end?
When was the beginning?
There is no beginning
And no end
What are we?
What are supposed to do?
Who are we?
If its just an illusion
Then where is the real world?
The soul
the mind
the spirit
The Buddha ask to a monk
When you see a rose
What do you see?
A rose the monk said
I see all the purity of all livings beings
Buddha said
Then he picked an ant and put it on the rose the ant ran off and went away. Do you know what the ant saw?
No I don’t the monk answered
The ant saw death and fear, that’s why it ran away.
So tell me young monk
Who sees The true form of the rose?
If you see a rose, I see purity, and the ant sees death, then who is right?
After a long time the monk answers
The rose is all of the three things and it is none at the same time, it is just a rose nothing more than just a simple rose
After that the monk realized emptiness
There was nothing at all
Everything was empty
Nothing more that emptiness At all,

Reality cannot be explained
Everyone must see reality by themselves
But at the very end
Every stays in wonder
And In wonder is where all the answers lie.
And everything begins……………
