I've been thinking about this as an example.  I've admired leaders 
and systems of thought that recommend they not be taken as true, but 
should be experienced and evaluated accordingly.  Then we have 
Science that has Quantum physics as its highest theory.  But we're 
told that if we think we understand it, we should think 
again.  Doesn't particle theoretical physics inhabit a virtual world?

The Universe is uncaused, like a net of jewels in which each is a 
reflection of all the others in a fantastic, interrelated harmony without end.
