Thank you, but what is your idea here ? Do you follow Advaita Vendantha?

That's because you have read books and watched TV shows that explain what you experience is happening in your brain/mind. Try telling that to someone from a primitive tribe who is just about to spear a buffalo and has never seen a TV show or read a book. Tell him that the world is not real. When you look at the mountain through the telescope do you believe the mountain only exists inside the telescope in the same way that looking at the tree means it is only in your mind?

Let us assume I talk what I read somewhere. But can't you verify? Isn't mountain exist in your consciousness?

Isn't mountain exist in your consciousness? the mountain exists in my mind because light from the mountain has entered my eyes and is converted to electrical signals which my mind brain has interpreted as a mountain. So yes the mountain is in my consciousness.

The light you are talking about is viewed in your consciousness as well, eh?
