I think the reason that this is such a difficult concept to grasp is that most people have never had a transcendent experience. Most have never "waken up" from our average day-to-day reality. It's been said that you can experience this type of transcendence by engaging in meditation, or having a NDE, or something like that.
Everyone can relate to the whole "lucid dreaming" analogy, because everyone who has ever had a dream has eventually "woke up" back to average everyday reality, and from that perspective can see how the dream wasn't really real.
I think the key here is to learn to have a truly transcendent experience. One should be sufficient, yes? All it would take is one instance of "waking up" to see that the world is really a like a dream after all.
Other than getting curious and trying LOA and subjective reality belief systems, does anyone have any suggestions on how to do this? Anyone ever had a transcendent experience that left believing without a shadow of a doubt that yes, this world I have been living in and believing to be "real" is just another layer of the dream? Steve? Erin?
I'd be interested in hearing if this has been the case for someone...
