How do we sort reality from fantasy?

[Philosophy Explorer]

This is really a two-part question:

A) How can we tell for ourselves what is real and what isn't?
B) How can we tell who is experiencing reality and who isn't?

Er can't sort reality from fantasy, we can't even wake up in the morning with a straight face if we are honest. It's another unanswerable question, cool.

Whatever experiences you are having, you really are having them. Whether they are actually of what you think they are of is the tricky bit, but since knowing probably wouldn't affect your experience, it doesn't really matter.

Come on, PhilX... get a grip!!

(A) we shouldn't care for it all comes from the same place within.

(B) that is what your fucking instinct is for... your survival mechanism within.

Jeezum Crow, dude... if you are or hope to be a "Philosophy Explorer" get out of your mind and take a dive into the Sea of Consciousness from which all these answers are awaiting YOUR OWN discovery.

"who is experiencing reality and who isn't?" ... I AM experiencing reality and YOU"RE NOT until you get past this shit you call philosophy, hombre. Get back on your horse and move forward... NOW!

A. Find that which doesn't change. Or find that from which all arises. (hint: you can't get here via thought, as thoughts themselves arise and change)

B. Irrelevant.
