Past and Current Events: Same Reality

A man asks about the illusion of time and whether the events of our lives actually happened or if, referring to the Mary and Jane analogy, they were akin to the events in Jane’s experience – all just happening in the dreamer Mary’s mind. Rupert says that for us to say that the other events of our lives never actually happened, we also have to say that this current event is not happening. But if we agree that it is happening but that its reality is something other than it appears, then we would apply that same perspective to the events of the past; those events must be of the same sort of reality as the current event is, even though we may not understand fully what that reality is.
