Ken Bradford - What is reality?
The Buddha said the world we perceive is unreal, like a rainbow, a bubble in a stream, a mirage, a dream. A Bible verse says we see as “through a glass darkly.” Psychology, that we see through self & world constructs we mistake for reality. Is that true? If so, what then is “reality”?
