This continues more or less indefinitely, too. There are plenty of people who think they're "very spiritual" but who actually have a limited idea of reality. They think that because their view of reality includes non-standard and/or supernatural extras, they're somehow "more aware", but they're actually just in a slightly different reality box. (Note: I'm not referring to any specific person, and I don't want anyone reading this to think I might mean them, because I don't. This is a general observation, based on many years of hanging around religious, supernatural, metaphysical, and similar communities, online and off.)

Me, too. But now I know there are no answers, because there are no questions, and nobody else can experience my reality and tell me about it, anyway. (Oooh, there's that bad wannabe Zen mastery babble again. Sorry. Can't seem to help it. It's not intentional. )

And THIS is the reason that people sometimes fight so strongly against opposing ideas. Unfortunately, resistance just leads to more of the same, because energy put into any idea, though, belief, etc just powers it up more and causes it to keep happening in your reality.

In HIS reality, I'm sure it is nonsense. But what happens in other peoples' realities stays in other peoples' realities. You only have to adopt their stuff if you want to.
For what it's worth, though, I went through years and years of this kind of agonising and self-doubt. I called it "tail chasing". I have a figurine in my curio cabinet of a baby dragon with its tail in its mouth (yes, like a cute puppy, but it's a dragon), and I got it during a period of very intense self-doubt and reality-questioning. Sometimes when I look at it now I can't help but smile. That used to be me...
May the light surround you, may you be blessed. May the light surround us, may we be blessed. May love and light surround us all, and may we all be healed and blessed. And so it is, and so it shall be, now and ever after.
