So, what does Inside Out actually mean? This name points, more literally than we often think, to the way perception works.
It’s all about direction – outside in or inside out. What would in in this story be – something that peeps through the shutter of our consciousness – formless.
What would out be? Life experience – form.
So our common belief is that there is a world out there – the real world that we perceive and that experience works in this direction —>, but it is not actually like that.
Thought creates our world and then says, ‘I didn’t do it’
David Bohm
But what is actually going on in this relation —> is not a part of our experience – that is not our reality. And it is still a big Unknown. What is the source of our experience and whether it actually exists in any form or just emerges from the formless moment by moment, I don’t know.
But what we can see through the insights into the nature of experience that come with the understanding of the Three Principles is that all of our life experience happens in this domain
We live in our mind generated model. Or, to put it this way, reality is being fabricated in our minds. So is the experience of 3D space we live in. It’s a virtual reality. And in this reality, we project what we see, hear, feel as body sensations… to certain coordinates in our artificial 3D space experience. So that is how just basic perception of “physical reality” works.
Besides, whatever exists in this domain, if anything does it, is free from all meaning. It just is. As it is. No words, no perspectives, no images, no sounds, no connotations, no emotions, no good or bad. Just something… as it is. Or is it something still? Or is it nothing?
So, our “reality”, what we experience is always made, “artificially”, inside our minds, from the inside out. We are creating it, it’s our baby.
So, all the content, meaning, visuals, connotations, emotions… are also being created in our minds. We are literally creating 100% of our reality
