We thank Keith Whelpley for an exploration of what we call illusion. Philosopher and poet David Whyte's book Consolations II presents the idea that our lives are a progression from one illusion to the next. The collapse of each illusion gives way to yet another.

Today we consider different ways to think about illusion. We wonder aloud about knowing, believing, truth, and reality.
