Illusion of traveling

8 posts in this topic

I'm currently traveling with a bus to another town. It's a few hundred kilometers ride. I've been thinking, is the bus moving at all or the reality just moves around it giving the illusion of traveling?

@Tyler Durden does it matter which it is?  

Things are always exactly as they seem.. until or unless they seem otherwise, in which case things are still exactly how they seem.

@Nos7algiK Excellent explanation. It makes perfect sense. Unfortunately, seeing movement as an illusion can be hard because it seems so real.

What is movement?


Intrinsic joy is revealed in the marriage of meaning and being.

It seems like moving your body from one place to another. But I guess that explanation is far away from what is really happening in that case.
