Defining Reality
Question
Hello Rabbi,
I wanted to ask: what is reality?
Is it an emotion? Is it something intellectual? Is it a state of intellectual understanding? Does it have a definition, or is it actually an axiom?
Answer
I didn’t understand the question. You assume that reality is a mental state, and you’re asking whether it is intellect or emotion. To me, that is like someone asking whether a table is intellect or emotion. A table is not a mental state but an object in the world.
