You may be correct, Foolestroupe, that our world only exists in our minds. ;-) That is a concept embraced by many of the Eastern philosophies.

In the context OF our world as we know it objectively, however, we cannot control the sunrise. If our world is simply our collective mental illusion, then of course, the entire thing can be "stopped" the moment we stop imagining it!

And that is a goal sought by some on the path to enlightenment, so I've heard. That's why what they find when they get there is said to be indescribable, since it doesn't fall within any of our known points of reference.

Beige is a lovely colour! And a very useful one. We need more and more and more beige, that's what I say. ;-)
