Reality exists beyond us, our understanding of the world is directly linked to memories and how we interpret those memories, that is, each person sees the world differently, it's as if each person distorts reality a little to understand it. When we get in front of the projection our body distorts reality, or I could say, our vision of reality distorts the very real "projected" onto us. Our vision of reality distorts reality because we create ourselves into reality with our actions. Reality is this mixture of views and understandings of reality, it is what we all make simultaneously, agglutinating all the realities of each person into one. The "purity" of reality does not exist, so there is not just one answer/path/truth, but several simultaneously.
