I remember reading in either the Hermetic Laws, or something that came out of them, that for example physical existence is an illusion, but only to those beings who are existing on the higher planes. To us, while we’re here, it’s all real and should be treated as such. To assume existence is all non-reality is kind of putting the cart before the horse - it’s a feeling or a theoretical understanding, but it lacks the depth of experiential knowledge to be of any real substance…aka if you live as though life isn’t real, you’re probably going to screw it up 🤣
