We Live in Our Minds - Our Mind Creates Our Reality - Is The World an illusion

This video explains, How we actually live in our mind, not in this world. The reality is an illusion. We create our reality in our mind. Everyone sees the reality differently. The video also explains how we can control our mind to live a happy life and how we don't need the external world to be happy?
Our world is not outside. Our world is within our mind. Actually we see the image of this world inside our mind.
So everyone is living in his own world created inside his mind. It means there are as many worlds as there are living creatures on the Earth.

Friends, we do so many things in our life to make ourselves happy. We waste lots of our time, money and energy to seek happiness and pleasure in the external world.
But have you ever thought, why we need all this? What purpose does the external world solve?
Actually these external things don't do anything to make us happy. What they do is just trigger the secretion of various happiness hormones in our body and as a result, we feel happiness. And as you know, many times these objects fail to make us happy.

Got the point? Ok, let's take one more example to make it more clear.

When a woman Hugs her child and husband then different types of hormones may be released in the body of her child and husband. Although the woman is same but it is triggering different types of hormones in different bodies.
Why this happens? Actually the relationship of child and husband with that woman is different. So they have different types of feelings, beliefs and memories associated with the same woman. Therefore the same woman triggered the release of different hormones in the bodies of her child and her husband.

So what does it mean?
It means external world only helps in the secretion of different hormones in the body and the same object may trigger different hormones in different persons.
Everyone including humans and other animals see the world differently based on their intellectual level, past memories, body structure, sensory organs and other numerous factors.
You must have heard the famous line - Beauty lies in the eyes of the beholder. For a mother her child is most beautiful in the world. There is no meaning of the external world unless there is someone to give it some meaning.
So now we understand, we actually live in our mind. External world is just a stimulant. But if we know that we actually live in our mind, then we can use other ways to achieve happiness.
It has been found that whatever pleasures and happiness you achieve by spending so much time, money and energy; can be obtained just by doing meditation. Doing meditation can release happy hormones like Serotonin, dopamine, oxytocin and endorphins.
You can remember good or bad memories in your mind and you will start to live in that time again. You will enter into the world that was present at that time.
Do you know, when we recall our old experiences, the same firing patterns of neurons are repeated in the brain that took place at that time.
So we actually start to feel that experience again. We enter into that time again and relive that life.
So we live in our mind.

What happens in your dreams.
When you dream, you are completely in a different world- your dream world. You are completely unaware of your surroundings. Your world is in your mind.
Your brain can not differentiate between the dreaming state and the wakeful state. Therefore you laugh, cry, smile, feel fear and pain while dreaming. Your heart beat increases, body gets sweaty, hence you show all the symptoms as if you are living your dreams in reality. when you dream, you are totally unconscious of the external world and you actually live in your mind.
In the same way we can live any life just by clearly imagining and visualizing that life in our mind. On doing this, Neural network's circuit will be triggered accordingly and desired hormones will be released in the body. So we actually be living that life.

My dear friends, All the pleasures and suffering are in our minds not in the external world. We actually suffer our mind, not this world. Our world is in our mind and we are the controller of our mind. We need not to control the external world if we can control our mind.
If everything is ok inside our head then you will see- all is ok with the external world too. But if there is some problem in your mind then you will see the whole world full of problems even if everything is totally ok in the world.
Actually you see events of the external world in your mind. And it's your brain that gives meaning to the meaningless events as per your perspective.
Keep it in mind, that your mind can be your biggest friend or biggest enemy. If it obeys you and takes your instructions then you can create your desired world. But If you can not control it, then your mind will start to control you.
World famous spiritual leader, Shri Shri Ravi Shankar says-
“If you can win over your mind, you can win over the whole world.”

Yes, it's all an illusion, a dream.

I'm a science and technology enthusiast, and I'm happy that you've ventured into this subject too because I'm also into quantum physics. Others may say this is all strange belief, but for me, it's all part and parcel of the bigger cosmic reality that we are living inside of.

When I'm in public I like to look around at each person and live in there head for a second, see what they see, great what they hear, feel what they feel, it makes me feel like my problems are much smaller than I was making them out to be

This is why no one should ever take anything personally literally ever, because people only act and react based on the inputs they have injected into their mind, the same way you put a DVD or cd into the player, is the same way you put information into your mind that eventually plays out that reality, therefore, you cannot ever get offended by others because they've only ever known what they grew up believing, what most people don't realize is we are no more than Alexa or Siri robots, we are the input that we receive, Alexa and siri are only getting smarter of dumber based on the inputs we give them, it's the same goes for humans, and that's why media and TV run the world because people allow the TV and media to literally program their universe, I look at it as a universe rather than a mind like you say, because it's YOU-niverse, your universe, your reality, you program it the way in which you desire. When you take ownership of your YOU-NIVERSE you become the author of your life. This video was great, this is the 6th dimension of consciousness that you're referring too, not 5D, like all the 5D people think they are smart, and ahead of the game, but they still think whatever they believe in their reality, is what's actual going on in others reality, when the truth is your neighbor in the apartment or home next to you can shift to an entirely different timeline than you at any given moment based on their reality inputs, and you can be in hell and they can be in heaven or Visa versa depending on what you inject or input into your reality. Their are infinite timelines that we can be in at any given time, this is the 6D understanding you're talking about in this video in which I would say maybe a few thousand people in the world even comprehend, this is great work.

I say this all the time. We are worlds. We see totally eye to eye on this. Well articulated man.

[Sul]

We most definitely live in our mind and that’s where all the answers are as well.

[kabir]

I searched in Google *someone who knows the reality of this world* and surprisingly I found this video. The explanation definitely questions and answers you about your existence. Truly said, "It's all in the mind."

[lisameyer]

Thank you, I always say that what’s in your head is what’s on the outside so be careful what you think it just might get it!

I agree 100% .

How strange it sounds to say, “I live in my mind.” It is true, of course, but we are not programmed to recognize that fact in this illusionary reality. The mind is the creator. Your mind creates your world, and my mind creates my world. So many minds, so many worlds, and each one is different. This is an ancient concept. Thank you for bringing a fresh perspective to this truth.

I sometimes tell my friends the story of what happened to me - and it relates to this video.: When I was 16 years old my father and I were working on my first car, a project we towed home from a farmer's field. Among other aspects of fixing up the car Dad was working on the right rear corner fender, next to the taillight which was very crinkled up and damaged. I remember how happy and proud he was to have molded the fender perfectly to its original state. The entire father/son bonding project was one of the happiest and most memorable times of my life. Some 35 years later I sat alone with my eyes closed trying deeply to focus on conjuring up those same memories again. Amazingly, in my mind's eye, I could "see" that moment like it was happening again, right then, along with the smells and noises associated. It reminded me of the movie "Somewhere in Time" where Christopher Reeve goes back in time to meet his love interest. I felt that I was right on the precipice of actually "being" there! It felt very real.

Most of the time we do live in our minds that’s why most of us don’t accomplish the things we dream about in our minds.

[tinalodh]

We live in our experiences and the experiences are in our minds. Thank you so much for reiterating this fact. When we are in a state of awareness, we get to differentiate between illusion and the realities. Namaste

There are as many worlds as the amount of minds.... This has always been my thinking.

[Shekhar]

Very true!
We are living in our minds !!
This also prompts us to open the door of happiness by meditation on happiest moments of our life !!!

Some may find this strange but it makes so much sense to me.
