Consider a mother carrying her infant within her womb.

Consider the infant within her womb.

Regardless of other issues, the infant within the womb knows this world, only, to be its whole world. The infant knows this world to be where it came into being, and where it came to be aware. The infant believes it is in the real world – the only world it knows, and therefore the only world that must exist.

Consider if someone should come and tell it – that this world is an illusion. They tell the infant, this world is not the real world, but another world yet waiting for the infant to be born into. But, the infant has no proof or evidence that there is another world. This world the infant is in, is the only one the infant has ever known and therefore, the infant continues to believe that this is the only world that is real. To the infant within the womb, this world is the Universe and the infant knows only this.

The infant knows only that it grows and lives inside this world, this Universe, and may or may not have a sense of a being greater than itself – a being that is giving the infant life – a being that may be all around the infant, and always with the infant, but which the infant cannot identify, and cannot discern. The infant, within the womb, knows only that which is connected to the infant, and therefore thinks this ALL, must be all that the infant is, all the world is, and all the Universe is.

Then one day, it leaves this Universe.

Consider the human being,
living within a world which it knows this world, only, to be its whole world. The human being knows this world to be where it came into being, and where it came to be aware. The human being believes it is in the real world- the only world it knows, and therefore the only world that must exist.

This world the human being is in, is the only one the human being has ever known and therefore, the human being continues to believe that this is the only world that is real. To the human being within this existence, this Universe is the only world and the human being knows only this.
