Map and Territory
What you think and what is are two separate things. This seems trivial but goes deep, very deep — (it’s fractal) –, and the mind is constantly mistaken about it (if it weren’t then all your dreams would be lucid dreams - dreams where you realize you’re dreaming. But they aren’t because you don’t because the mind is constantly mistaken about this.)
It’s not a pipe. It’s an image of a painting of a pipe. Map. Not territory.
