The "Garden of Eden".

All things, and all things acted out therein or therewith, are a creation of the individual Spirit, and therefore the collective Spirit, and are an illusion. It is this illusion that is perceived as reality yet it is no more real than the reality of a dream.

However, it is within this perception that we ment and act on the path to the final realisation.

Note 1. An ancient quote, predating Shakespeare: the world is a "wide and universal theater,"

Note 2. Extract from The Milk Is White:

When we leave our body our life here becomes the 'dream' and where we then are becomes the reality. When we reach full enlightenment, Christhood or full realisation, call it what we will, that is the only reality, and there is no dream of any sort.

From our physical mindset, therefore, we create both the dream 'reality' and the virtual 'reality' with the latter more approximating the reality of the former when technology is refined. In the manner in which the dream and the technologically created 'reality' are similar but not the same so is the similarity between "life in the physical" and our existence when not in the physical.
