Greetings:

I still think the best understanding of REALITY is found in Lila's words(LILA, Chapter 14): "...I'm whatever your questions turn me into. You don't see that. It's your questions that make me who I am. If you think I'm an angel then that's what I am. If you think I'm a whore then that's what I am. I'm whatever you think. And if you change your mind about me then I change too. So whatever Richard tells you, it's true. There's no way he can lie about me."    -    Reality is whatever you think it is (your patterns), there's no way you can lie about it, and if you change your understanding of reality, then reality changes too.    


Here are something by David Bohm that says the same thing:

"Reality is what we take to be true.  What we take to be true is what we believe.  What we believe is based upon our perceptions.  What we perceive depends upon what we look for.  What we look for depends on what we think.  What we think depends on what we perceive.  What we perceive determines what we believe.  What we believe determines what we take to be true.  What we take to be true is our reality."

      (Mathieu Ricard & Trinh Xuan Thuan, 'The Quantum and the Lotus: A Journey to the Frontiers Where Science and Buddhism Meet',p.121)
