The Paradigm of Real and Unreal

I was stuck in a paradigm of real and unreal because I was hanging out with people that would say things in a stone cold, straight face, just like I did. And I could not fathom that as being part of normal, ordinary reality. But if you read anthropological texts, the anthropologist who studied tribal peoples from around the world have story after story after story about these incredibly psychomagical mystical experiences happening as normal. The development of the Western mind and Western educational systems have trained the brain and trained the mind and trained the identification away from these skills.
