It is so amazing how much our reality is artificial. So much of the food we eat is artificially made from chemical additives and not real food. But we eat it thinking it looks good and tastes good so it must be good. Wrong! It is what is making us unhealthy.
Our thoughts are artificial too! We think things that have nothing to do with reality. We see something and make a story about it so our mind is happy with the story but our heart is feeling something missing.
Buddha advised us to see things as they really are and discard our stories about things. In the world today we are programmed to believe in artificial reality. No wonder we all have the habit of thinking too much and not looking at the truth just as it is. Life is beautiful just as it is. The stories are artificial and distracting. They might entertain our mind but leave our heart wanting more reality.
