SHACK 232 HARD TO BELIEVE

ultra -vr

When you bang your elbow fall sharply on your knees on a gravel surface it hurts, sometimes bleeds and then it heals a mysterious process not under the conscious control.

All the above suggest that in reality these are solid facts. However as later articles go deeper into solidity one might be shocked to believe that this is all in the brain and it isn't really solid at all and in fact is a virtual reality show decoded by the brain as TV decodes its screen programme.

It is so hard to believe we are a virtual reality and yet when it dawns on us and we realise its implications the reaction can be chaos, depression, distraction, bewilderment or endless freedom and joy.

Glimpses of this no state  - state can motivate one to further exploration.  A quote from 'Fings Ain't Wot They Used T'Be', cokney East End London from a musical and jazz classic.

Hey do me a favour
They changed our local Palais into a bowling alley and
Fings ain't wot they used t’be (chorus)
There's Teds wiv drainpipe trousers and debs in coffee houses and
Fings ain't wot they used t’be (chorus)
There used t’be trams not very quick
Got you from place to place
But now there's just jams half a mile thick
Stay in the human race
I'm walking!
They’ve stuck parking meters outside our doors to greet us, no
Fings ain't wot they used t’be (chorus)
Cor! monkeys flying round the moon
We'll be up there wiv ‘em soon
Fings ain't wot they used t’be (chorus)
Once our beer was froffy but now its froffy coffee well
Fings ain't wot they used t’be (chorus)
It used t’be fun, Dad an old Mum paddling down Southend
But now it ain't done
Never mind, chum
Paris is where we spend our outings !
Grandma tries to shock us all
Doin’ knees-up rock ‘n’ roll
Fings ain't wot they used t’be (chorus)
We used to have stars
Singers who sung
A Dixie melody
They’re buying guitars plinkety plunk
Backing themselves with three chords only
Once we'd dance from 12 to 3
I've got news for Elvis P
Fings ain't wot they used ta
Did the lot we used ta
Fings ain't wot they used ta be

This was a musical in the 50's and if you read the lyrics and see the local jargon then one can perhaps see and feel change, now with the internet and virtual reality, computer graphics and digital technology maybe reality is changing, our adaptability is put to the test, the letting go, the speedy information change, our minds exposed to hundred of TV, Cell /Mobile phone stuff, adverts, Apps and quantum stuff, maybe we can get the message of illusion and reality--- a question----when there is no illusion when all the 'virtual's' are gone, when one profoundly realises all these changes are like programme switches at the touch of the remote control, when the TV is off, no programme what happens then-----memories which are not real but phantom ghost thoughts of the past stored for recall with emotions and ego editing-----so who are you when all this ceases----dead----senile----or enlightened----frightened and nowhere to go---nothing to fill the active eager mind---or at peace and knowing the unknown and that is all-----happy now?

Perhaps this is a process steps to finding the THE SELF a kind of Zen journey, keeping in mind 'I AM NOT THAT' so moving on with the realisation I am not an illusion AND NOT GETTING STUCK AND LETTING GO.  (SHACK)
