What is real

QUESTION: Masters do we create our own reality? If so, then what is real? ~Angela, Canada

ANSWER: All souls are composed of unconditionally loving energy. Everything in the universe is energy and energy is everything. It is amorphous – without form – unless it is given form through the intention of a soul who needs physicality in order to complete a desired lesson.

If you never left the universe of unconditional love, you would not need a physical reality. It is only to complete your learning experiences that it is needed. When in a body form having a human experience, you are ruled by the ego, which demands the ability to rate, grade, and judge everything around you. So, you create the reality needed to fulfill your wishes.

For this purpose, it is insufficient merely to have energy sensations around you. You need something that can be considered by those sharing this life with you, something that is visible to all.

“Reality” in the physical sense has length, width, and depth. Regardless of an object’s appearance to you, it may be interpreted differently by others. The beauty or usefulness of a possession may be vital to you and frivolous to another. The need or desire for a situation will vary with the construction of one’s path.

If you journey away from home, your reality is dictated by what area you enter. You can accept things as others intended them to appear, or you can provide your own interpretation. You may see an item as a work of art or a piece of junk, while its owner appreciates it as a chair.

Reality is fluid; it changes to meet your needs. What is real is what you choose to see as being present, and its definition of purpose is as you choose to dictate. It is different for each human. When solidity is needed for an exchange between two individuals, it will be seen as such by both.
