Is the Universe An Illusion?

It can be said that the universe is an illusion. All matter comes and goes; it’s never constant, and thus, all things are impermanent. 

There are only three unchanging factors: infinite space, awareness of that space, and the formula of attraction and repulsion that causes change on inert matter, and our reaction to it.

If we sped up time for a million years to pass in one second, what would remain? Space, awareness of that space, and the formula for re-creation.

This is realised in the stillness of meditation. 

The question may arise, “So what?” 
To non-practitioners, this is merely an unimportant idea. 
To a genuine practitioner, this changes everything we hold dear.
