I have no doubt there is much truth to this.
Row, row, row your boat...
Truth, based on what you believe right now, in your current reality?
Truth based on current limited scientific evidence?
Truth based on what you can taste, smell, touch, hear, see in response to the electrical signals in your brain?
Truth is in the eye of the beholder, so what do you mean?
It's just my personal belief system - when it's all over, said, and done, I believe we'll realize what we are can't be contained in bodies, and that when we are beyond time, there will never have been time at all, thus everything we are experiencing is an illusion of sorts.
I'm not a big Bible-thumper, but in the book of Genesis, Adam falls asleep in the Garden of Eden. Never does it say he woke up. Everything that came thereafter was but a dream.
That being said, I'm not trying to get into a philosophical discussion about it (they never end), so that's probably all I have to say on the matter.
