The Nature of Reality

Two people walk into a bar.

One is a physicist: finished university, did a PhD, now works at a university. Spends most of their time in a lab.

The other has already lived many lives. Grew up as a happy child, lived as an addict and a bum on the street, and was relatively successful at some point.

Who understands the nature of reality better, do you think?
Even at a fundamental level, it’s the one with the most life experience.

See, the hardest part is noticing that you are the one who has changed when you look at reality.
You—the observer.
With the same information, your conclusion can make a 180-degree shift.
And that is the hardest thing to spot.

I obviously made this a bit too black and white, but you get the point.
