What is Real?

Or better said, "What is real to you right now?"

Because for most people what is real changes somewhat from day to day depending upon their experiences.

There was a line in a song that I liked from the 1960s "Nothing's going to change my world!"

So, at core I took this to heart. So, I decided to make my center strong and healthy so nothing could permanently throw me off ever again. And I succeeded in this for the most part. So, what is real to me stays more constant than it used to be growing up.

If you look at nature that is completely undefiled by man (almost impossible these days) you see what is real. Society and civilization are not real, they are at best an art form created by mankind(and woman kind).

So, if you want to be where it is real the closest thing to real now is in a wilderness somewhere where things are relatively undefiled by people's mistakes.

But, a lot of that is being burned down now in Washington Oregon and California and other western states. So, I guess you can now sail out to sea out of sight of land and go Scuba diving to experience nature. But, now the coral reefs many places are dying in the pacific Ocean because of 90 degree and higher water temperatures.

So, where do you go now to find something real?

I guess at this point it completely depends upon you.

For me, "Nothing's going to change my world!" And understanding what that meant in meditating on a center I could live with that spanned all the galaxies and included all life in the universe including all galaxies works for me to feel at peace. Maybe this meditation on experiencing yourself as the entire universe including all time and space might work for you too to bring you permanent peace and enlightenment into your lives. By God's Grace.
