    As you can see from your Wikipedia article, you are certainly not the first person to get mired in these thoughts.  How do you know that you’re not a brain in a vat?  How do you know that we’re not all residents of the Matrix?  Every generation comes up with a new version of the same idea.  It’s like walking a labyrinth.  It’s a puzzle that you’re not necessarily meant to solve, but the walk itself IS the solution, if that makes any sense.  There are times in meditation that I feel “as one” with the universe and it all makes sense.  It’s a wonderful feeling while it lasts.  But then… whoosh… it’s gone again.
