The issue was that Toasted Cheese believes that everything is an illusion. If we believe that everything is an illusion, what in the world would we even be talking about with an illusion/non-illusion distinction? What would the terms even refer to? You'd have to ask him, but I think he means everything within our limited perception is an illusion. Maybe, although I wish he'd just say that in that case. Also, again I don't know why he'd be talking about perception when we're talking about concepts. We don't perceive concepts (perception having a connotation that we're receiving external information: we perceive via our five senses). Anyway, it's almost impossible to get clear, straightforward responses from him. For one, because he insists on reading a whole host of other stuff into anything you ask or say, so that he figures there's always some sneaky, ulterior motive, so that if he'd agree with anything or be straightforward, he's going to undermine his own view. |
