okay, here's what I think about this.
I think we are all creating reality all the time, passively or actively, it doesn't matter which.
I think the key lies in whether you are aware of the reality you are creating and take accountability for it.
since the masses are only focusing on the material, then they are creating more of the same, consistent with creation of what we are observing (paying attention to)
PR would play a big part in this, ads, ads, more ads keep the majority wanting more things than they have and newer things than they own.
if the TPTB are REALLY aware that we create reality, then they could easily control the thoughts of those who are unaware and thus control the reality that the masses create.
However, if you are aware, or shall we call it awake to the fact that you are creating reality, then you are less easily controlled.
I find it fascinating that all religions ask you to become an observer and creator of reality through prayer, meditation, faith, mantras, ritual or magic.
finally science begins to confirm it. But it would take science a very long time to adjust the perception of those who create reality through their religious filters.
Quoting: Anonymous Coward 665033Creating who's reality? There is only one reality for every religion, their reality, conform to the way their rules tell you or else. Maybe originally religion was good and did help the world, but now it's decadent and ruined. There are many scientists who are religious also you know.
What does it really take to "create reality"? I must really suck at it because the world is still fucked up no matter how much I want a better world. We are missing something, because positive thoughts and prayer, meditation and all that do not change reality from my experiences. Maybe it takes a majority to want the same reality for it to happen, but I'm leaning to unlikey on this one, not impossible, nothing is really impossible. But it might explain why individuals can't "create reality" and there is such control over the media and such.
I read a very good book once by Terry Pratchett called "Gods", basically it dealt with a similar concept, only it was about the fact that when people stopped believing in a god, they cease to exist and disappear. It's fiction btw.
But it feels like we are lacking something or something is not quite right and we have lost the ability to create "reality". I forgot to mention that there appear to be different realities, personal reality and the universal reality. Each person perceives their surroundings differently and therefore have their own personal reality. But there is the overall reality of the universe/world. You can change your own personal reality but I am interested in working out if we can really affect the universal reality and how it can be done...
