Virtual Reality vs. Absolute Reality – Mind vs. Consciousness
The Two Realities We Live In
What is virtual reality and what is absolute reality? To understand this, let us begin with a very simple truth: the life you are living right now through the mind is a virtual reality. The life that can be lived through pure Consciousness is the absolute reality.
For me, I live in absolute reality. For you, until you shift from the mind, you are living in virtual reality. Why am I so confident about this? Because I know the difference between the life lived through the mind and the life lived through Consciousness.
The Analogy of the Movie Screen
Imagine sitting in a theater. On the screen before you, a movie is being projected. Heroes, villains, lovers, and friends all act out their stories. Blood is shed, flowers bloom, dialogues are delivered, anger erupts, and romance blossoms. Yet you, sitting in the audience, know that none of it is real. It is a projection, a temporary entertainment. You watch, you enjoy, and you leave.
It only becomes problematic when you identify with the characters on screen. Suppose you watch Spiderman and then come home believing you are Spiderman, spreading your arms as if webs will shoot out. The people around you would call you mad.
This is exactly what happens when you live life from the mind. You mistake the movie of the mind for reality.
The Mind as Virtual Reality
The mind is a fantasy world. It is filled with stories, images, dreams, and thoughts. Like a movie that never ends, it keeps replaying scenes of joy and sorrow, fear and anger, love and loss.
Sometimes it shows you a movie of happiness—life seems good, filled with pleasures. Sometimes it plays the opposite—life feels dark, fearful, and heavy. It pulls from the past: a death that happened years ago, a betrayal you once suffered. It keeps replaying those memories until you cry, rage, or despair as though the event were happening now.
In trauma, this tendency is even stronger. People relive incidents for years in their inner movie theater, unable to come out, no matter how hard they try. They are prisoners of their mind.
If you keep feeding the mind, you keep playing the same movie. You continue to live in the virtual reality of the past or in fantasies of the future. But life is neither in the past nor in the future. Life is here, in this breath, in this moment.
The Trap of Identification
The problem is not the mind itself; the problem is identification. You begin to believe you are the central character of your mental drama. You write a story where you are the hero, and everyone else around you becomes the villain. You project blame, jealousy, and hatred onto others.
The mind loves this game because it keeps you distracted from your true reality. It robs you of energy. It convinces you that life is only about drama, struggle, and pleasure. Yet none of this is real. It is the trap of mind.
Consciousness: The Absolute Reality
What then is absolute reality? It is Consciousness. Consciousness is not a thought, not an emotion, not a memory. Consciousness is presence. It is this moment, unfiltered, uncolored by mental drama.
If you are listening to me through your mind, you will understand nothing. The mind cannot grasp what Consciousness is. To the mind, it makes no logical sense. Ego and image-consciousness will resist, because they enjoy the drama of the virtual world.
But if you are listening with presence—even a spark of awareness—something shifts. In that moment, you glimpse absolute reality.
How to Shift from Mind to Consciousness
Shifting is simple, though not easy. It requires attention and presence.
- Recognize the Movie
The first step is recognition. See the mind for what it is—a movie screen playing endless stories. Do not try to stop the movie; just recognize that it is not real. - Anchor in the Present
Bring attention to this moment. Start with the breath. Place your hand on your chest or abdomen, and feel the rise and fall. Say inwardly: This breath is real. This moment is real. - Withdraw Identification
When thoughts arise, do not jump into them as characters. See them as clouds passing. Each time you remember you are watching, not acting, you reclaim energy from the mind. - Stay with the Conscious Witness
Behind thoughts, behind emotions, there is a silent witness. Rest in that witness. That witness is you—the Consciousness.
Practice this daily, even for a few minutes. Over time, you will find that the grip of the mind loosens, and Consciousness shines as your natural state.
The Student’s Attitude
To learn this shift deeply, you must come with a surrendered attitude. Ego cannot learn Consciousness. Ego comes with arrogance, with the idea of knowing already. Consciousness requires humility—the willingness to be shaped like clay in the hands of a potter.
I have taught entrepreneurs, scientists, doctors, healers, business leaders, homemakers, men and women from all walks of life. The ones who succeeded in shifting to Consciousness came not with pride, but with openness. They valued the teaching enough to surrender to the process.
Why Absolute Reality Matters
Why is this shift important? Because without it, you waste your life. If you continue to live from the mind, you live in a prison of repetitive thoughts, consumed by low energies—anger, greed, jealousy, fear, shame.
But when you live from Consciousness, you live as a vibrant, blissful, happy being. You need nothing external to feel complete. Joy radiates from within. Life itself becomes a celebration.
From this state, you can create powerfully. You can live the happiest, wealthiest, and most purposeful life, because you operate from your true potential, not from illusions. Consciousness awakens your inherent powers.
The Role of Guidance
To experience absolute reality fully, guidance helps. When you are in the presence of someone established in Consciousness, your own inner GPS begins to activate. I read that inner GPS and guide you through it.
This is not about giving you information. It is about transmitting presence, so you can directly experience what absolute reality feels like. From there, you can apply it in every area of life—relationships, career, wealth, health, and spiritual evolution.
Practical Exercise: Presence Check
Right now, try this simple exercise:
- Sit quietly and close your eyes.
- Take one deep breath, and as you exhale, feel your body relax.
- Bring all your attention to the space between your two eyes. Imagine a point behind the forehead.
- Rest your awareness there, without forcing. Simply observe.
- If thoughts come, see them as images on a screen, but remain centered in that point of awareness.
Do this for just three minutes daily. This practice helps you shift from the mental movie into the seat of Consciousness.
Conclusion
The mind is virtual reality. Consciousness is absolute reality. The mind is drama; Consciousness is truth. The mind consumes your energy; Consciousness restores it.
If you continue to live in the mind, you live in shadows. If you shift to Consciousness, you live in light.
So the question is not whether absolute reality exists—it always exists. The question is: Are you ready to wake up from the movie?
Come with humility, presence, and openness. Learn to value reality over illusion. When you do, you will find the greatest treasure of all—the truth of your being.
Stay present. Stay aware. Stay in Consciousness.
