Mistaking the imaginary for the real

Once we realize that the world is our own projection, we will be free of it. Everything existing around us is painted on the screen of our consciousness. The picture we see may be ugly or beautiful, but in either case, we are not bound by it. It has not been forced upon us. We are trapped only because of our habit of mistaking the imaginary for the real.
