The One Infinite Creator becoming aware

[Shin'Ar]

So all of that which seems real is the illusion and that which is the mystery is that which is real. You come, therefore, into the land of paradox and mystery.

I think it a mistake to interpret this as though it means that creation is an illusion, and not real.

What should be being stated is that, because the fragmented experience is so individually and uniquely subjective, then our environment becomes what we interpret it to be based upon our own individual capabilities, which may be illusion if we are not in factual accordance with the true aspect of that environment /creation. And in most cases in the process of being this is the case.

That is not to say that there is not an actual reality of creation and Divine Design. There is and we live in it.

And that is why this quote also points out that the Mystery is the reality.

It is that which we cannot grasp or comprehend, beyond the illusion we establish in our effort to realize and interpret our initial environment, and unaffected by our ignorance of it, which therefore remains Mystery, which is the untouchable, unalterable, undeniable reality.

The paradox is that it is the divinely ingrained curiosity of the consciousness which drives the process of being, which, because of its Infinite nature and Design, can never be captured, establishes a reality which can never be known as reality. This is why it said that reality is illusion.
