Comment: In principle, I understand that our reality is a dream, but it is still impossible to treat it as such.

My Response: We need to perceive this reality a little differently, in a more composite way and try to illuminate it from multiple angles that take into account other states as well.

This is what society, science, crises, and everything we are going through demand of us today. Otherwise, we will not understand our world. We must envision and comprehend it differently, not as an ordinary person does, but at a slightly higher level. Life demands this of us.

The fact is that our everyday life, even its most mundane aspects, requires us to understand this life, this world, its causes, and its purposes. We see that we understand nothing of what is happening in our world and cannot reach any solutions.

Neither politicians, sociologists, nor political analysts can offer anything. We need to rise above because we have simply lost our way like a herd that is leading ourselves to some kind of precipice with no way forward while pressure builds from behind. Perhaps humanity needs to go in a completely different direction.

That is, our present, illusory, however we define reality, forces us to wake up, change, and recognize it as just one among many in order to understand the cause and effect of our state.

It is easy to say that five billion years ago the universe emerged, half a million years ago the Earth, sometime later life on Earth, and in another million years, either sooner or later, it will all end. So what? Is that all?

If so, then we confine ourselves to an earthly animalistic framework? But what if life compels us to resolve this problem? And although in our earthly, animal existence, we only care for the body, which is why we call such a life an animal existence, we are still not allowed to remain in it. We must find the true meaning of life; otherwise, we will suffer. Nature will force us to do so.
