Hi everyone!

Do you think reality includes itself? In other words, is reality real, or is it not real?

If reality is real, then reality must include itself, and then you run into a famous mathematical paradox I can't remember the name. Essentially, the problem is that a set cannot contain itself.

And if reality doesn't include itself, then... it's an illusion? doesn't exist?

Regards... ML
