Early philosophy

what we call reality is nothing more than,
consciousness acting on consciousness,
there is no matter, no energy, no reality,
the only true reality is consciousness,

that is to say awareness,
everything else that exists,
operates under basic assumptions,
such as the reality of the senses,

or of the perception of the mind,
or ego or thought or emotion,
in truth all that we are,
and all that exists pre-eminently,

is awareness, which is eternal and infinite.
