How real is reality: ALL is mind?

How the mind creates reality | Buddhism

(SEEKER TO SEEKER) Buddhist non-duality [there being no distinction between seen and seer in the Mind Only School] sees all of reality as the activity of consciousness.

Can we ever see behind this reality with DMT?

Divisions such as subject and object, mind and matter, self and world, [nirvana and samsara], are artificially created by consciousness in the process of simulating an external reality.

This video explores the philosophy of the Yogācāra School of Buddhism, a tradition that specializes in the study of mind—and how insight into the mind's workings can transform our way of being.
