pathwaytohappiness.com— There is a virtual reality of the mind and it has more impact on your emotions and happiness than the external physical world.

this article speaks to the power of living in the now. separating the mind from what is going on and allowing you to change your perception in order to view life in an uplifted higher conscious state. if you give yourself the chance to understand and practice this everyday you will experience profound effects. add this to a daily meditation practice and your life will be altered. the more you apply higher consciousness to your life you will notice how your mind controls you and holds you back and you will begin to let go of this "ego" and life will flow.
This is true to the extend that your physical body is not in pain. If you're hungry, or cold, or have cancer, etc then the "outside" world is forcibly intruding upon your emotional state. If you have a normal and healthy body then it is possible to attempt to focus your mind in such a way that you live more "in the moment".However, this article seems to suggest that you can always be happy. That is crap because the "real world" will always intrude upon your mind's meditations. Some might suggest that IF we are truly a consciousness separate from our physical body then that is why we are only have truly lasting happiness only in death. But that raises the question of why we'd ever leave that state. And that raises other questions, and so on.
More importantly we should ask ourselves how our "virtual reality" was formed. For example, a person who constantly buys things probably had their "virtual reality" formed by the media, who has told us that materialism brings about happiness.
Understanding "why" and "how" the virtual reality of your mind was formed is a helpful bit of awareness. However it does not tell you how to change it. Becoming aware of how we continually feed the virtual reality in order to maintain it is more helpful. However the actions of how to go about dissolving the virtual reality of the mind that blinds us has little to do with understanding its origin.

Totally inaccurate. You probably can't even speak the language that the people who originally came up with this. So your technically also a layperson.
