Flawed Perception
Vinay KoulSun seems to rise in eastern direction,
But its movement in the sky is an illusion.It is the earth that goes around it,
This way half of the earth is always lit.Earth rotates and revolves at a giddying speed,
But our lack of perception of its motion is strange indeed.This universe seems to be teeming with multiplicity,
But at sub atomic level, universe is a single entity.Though universe seems to be fragmented and a non-being,
Cosmic chemistry asserts that universe is a single living being.To us, universe seems substantial and three dimensional,
String Theory says, the universe is a hologram and two dimensional.
Scientists say that universe is made of nothing,
Atoms are made of massless waves that arise from nothing.Time seems to be real, and not an illusion, practically,
But Einstein says that present, past and future exist simultaneously.Our ignorance of future is no excuse,
He proves simultaneity by equations that are so abstruse.It seems to us that science can know everything,
But its methods don’t work on the consciousness of a human being.Nervous systems of different creatures see reality differently,
Each nervous system warps and differentiates reality differently.The reality seems to be beyond our comprehension,
Reality might not be in any mental dimension.
