Is Reality for Real?

Did you ever wonder if
the person in the puddle is real,
and you're just a reflection of him?

[Calvin and Hobbes]

TWIST Comment: Absorb this quote for a while, chew on it, imagine the possibilities and a new sense of reality would dawn on you. This reminds me of a popular Zen story. One of my favourites. There was a Zen monk who had a dream when he was sound asleep. In his dream, he was flying across colorful fields as a butterfly hopping from one flower to another enjoying the sweet nectar. When he woke up, he wondered, 'Am I a Zen monk dreaming of a butterfly or am I a butterfly dreaming of a Zen monk?'.
