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)
