5) How would you describe it to somebody who has never heard about this illusion.
I have many Christian friends that I love. If I were trying to relate this I would use the Book of Genisis as a guide. Starting with the Garden before the Fall. All beings were alive aware and at peace with no separation from creation\creator. Tempted to eat from the Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil the consiquence was separation
from creation\creator. Reminding them that the defintion of Hell is separation from God. The way back is reunion .
When asked "Who God is?" Jesus replied "God is ONE". "I And the Father are ONE". I would try to describe\convey the meaning of "ONE" or "NOT TWO". That it is here now and not in anyway imaginary. A misunderstanding of perception taken for fact that can be cleared by honest focused looking.
That is the best I can do for now.
