At the same time, they find their mind-god has played a trick on them. For mind is a part of the very system it has closed around it, and being inside, there is no reason to think any statement made by some part concerning the whole has any validity. Mind was caused by the material universe, if mind is right. But only the greater can accurately define the lesser, never the other way round, so if mind is right, mind would never know. . Geoffrey Wood
About This Quote

The mind-god is the product of our own minds. The way we perceive our world mirrors this perception. When we first interact with the world, we are convinced that there is something behind us, that there is a thing that causes our existence. We are then convinced that this thing that created us is the most important part of life and that it is responsible for our existence.

The world then is made up of several things: mind, body and the material universe. However, after a few years of interacting with the material universe and getting to know our body and mind better, we discover that what we thought was reality, was not reality at all.
