Shattering the Illusion

Of course, it’s all very well, saying that all we have to do is seek the truth, but there are so many conflicting truths. With each belief, comes a different truth. How can they all be true? How can we all possibly agree on a single truth?

Ultimately, there is only one single truth, the rest are illusions created by a dream-state induced and maintained by society. But, when you are in that dream-state, believing that illusion, how would you know whether what you believe is the real truth?

What if you were unable to wake from that dream, Neo?

How would you know the difference between the dream world and the real world?
