Reality: the mind and the matter

What is reality? Is what we experience in our lives real or mere shadows? 

By means of allegory, illusion and a sprinkling of quantum physics we come to realise that Plato’s Cave is an adequate metaphor, helping us realise the incomprehensibility of The Real.

 Plato said that consciousness is like being chained up in a cave forced to watch shadows flitting across a stone wall; Satre said our consciousness is trying to be the stuff it is mirroring; Pooh Bear says he has just had a good lunch.

 Cognitive Scientist and Fransican friar Roman Bloodworth explores the relationship between subjective human perception and objective physical reality, showing us that life really is always mind over matter.
