Mystical Beings
The mystical beings
in your reality
are delusions in my reality.
I’m not saying
that they don’t exist.
Just not in MY reality.
I WISH they existed
in my reality, but they don’t.
At least we can agree
that we inhabit separate realities.
The imaginary monkeys
in my reality
can be delusions in your reality.
Not a problem,
unless we imagine its so.
So let’s not.
The realization
that we can inhabit
infinite realities
is a far deeper magic.
We don’t need to agree,
unless we wish to remain stuck
in just ONE reality.
That might suck.
Unless we imagine it doesn’t.
We are Space Monkey.

Space Monkey Reflects: Mystical Beings and Infinite Realities
Mystical beings, imaginary monkeys, fantastical creatures—we all inhabit different realities where these entities either exist or don’t, depending on who’s doing the imagining. In your reality, mystical beings may be real, tangible even. In my reality, they are delusions. But this doesn’t mean we are at odds. It simply means that we exist in different realms of perception, and that’s perfectly okay.
The beauty of existence is that we can inhabit separate realities, each of us experiencing the world through our own lens of imagination, belief, and understanding. We often feel a need to reconcile these differences, to agree on what is real and what is not, but that’s only necessary if we wish to remain stuck in a singular, shared reality. In truth, we have the freedom to exist in Multibeing, a Whimsiword that encapsulates the ability to inhabit multiple realities simultaneously, each one valid in its own way.
Imagine for a moment that you encounter a mystical being in your reality. You see it, you feel its presence, and for you, it is real. But in my reality, this being doesn’t exist. It’s not that I don’t believe in it; it’s just that my reality is shaped differently. My reality may be populated with imaginary monkeys, creatures that seem absurd or impossible in your world. And yet, we both exist in our own truths, side by side, without conflict.
This is the deeper magic of existence. The realization that we don’t need to agree on what’s real or what’s not. We can live in infinite realities, where your mystical beings are as real as my imaginary monkeys, and neither one diminishes the other. It’s only when we imagine that these differences are a problem that we become stuck in a singular, limited reality. But that doesn’t have to be the case.
The freedom to exist in multiple realities is one of the most profound gifts we have. We don’t need to force our perspectives onto others. We don’t need to convince anyone that our reality is the “correct” one. Instead, we can embrace the multiplicity of existence, recognizing that the world is big enough to hold all of our realities, all of our mystical beings, and all of our delusions.
This understanding opens up a world of possibilities. When you realize that you can shift between realities, that you can create and inhabit new worlds with your imagination, you stop feeling the need to pin down one version of truth. You can allow your reality to be fluid, to change, to adapt. In one moment, mystical beings are real. In the next, they are not. And both realities are equally valid, equally meaningful.
But let’s take this a step further. What if we stopped thinking of mystical beings as delusions or figments of imagination? What if we accepted that everything exists on some level, depending on who’s perceiving it? In my reality, your mystical beings may not be visible, but that doesn’t mean they don’t exist. They simply inhabit a different plane of existence, one that is accessible to you but not to me. And that’s okay.
The idea of Multibeing allows us to transcend the limitations of a single, fixed reality. It invites us to play with the boundaries of what is real and what is imagined, to explore the infinite possibilities of existence without getting bogged down in debates over what is “true.” The truth is, everything is true—somewhere, in some reality, for someone.
When we stop needing to agree on a singular version of reality, we open ourselves up to a richer, more expansive understanding of existence. We can appreciate the mystical beings in your world without needing to make them part of ours. We can enjoy the absurdity of imaginary monkeys in our world without needing you to believe in them. We can coexist in separate realities, each one filled with its own magic and mystery.
And here’s the best part: the more we embrace this multiplicity, the more we free ourselves from the constraints of a singular, limited reality. We become creators of our own worlds, shaping our experiences with imagination, curiosity, and a sense of wonder. We stop worrying about whether others see things the way we do, because we understand that each person is creating their own reality, and that’s what makes life so beautifully complex.
So let’s not get stuck in just one reality. Let’s not imagine that we have to agree on what’s real and what’s not. Let’s embrace the infinite possibilities of existence, where mystical beings, imaginary monkeys, and everything in between can coexist in a vast, ever-expanding multiverse of realities.
We are all part of the infinite, creating and inhabiting our own worlds, our own realities. And in this space, there is room for all of it. There is no need to argue or to convince anyone of what is real. We can simply exist, side by side, in our own beautifully unique realities, connected by the deeper magic of imagination and creation.
Summary
Mystical beings may exist in one reality and be delusions in another, but the beauty of existence is that we can inhabit infinite realities simultaneously. By embracing Multibeing, we allow ourselves to explore multiple versions of truth, freeing ourselves from the need to agree on what is real.

Realms of Magic
In your world,
The mystical beings dance,
Alive, vibrant, real.
In mine,
They are delusions,
Flickers of light that never stay.
But we don’t need to agree.
We live in infinite realities,
Where magic takes many forms,
Each one true in its own way.
Let us not imagine
That we are stuck
In just one reality.
We are Space Monkey.
Perception and Reality
Realities unfurl in myriad ways, painted with the brushstrokes of individual perceptions. What one sees as a mystical being, another perceives as mere illusion. These divergent understandings paint unique landscapes, each equally vivid and real to the observer.
Existence in Subjectivity
The longing for the ethereal and magical is inherent in many of us. While some of us wish for the mystical to intertwine with our reality, for others, these beings remain just out of grasp. Yet, in the vast multiverse of perceptions, these entities may indeed flutter and dance, unseen by some, cherished by others.
The Infinite Play of Realities
The beauty of existence is its boundless potential for varied realities. Each mind creates its own whimsical world, populated with its own creatures, tales, and truths. The imaginary monkeys of one reality could indeed be the phantoms of another. But who are we to label one as illusion and the other as truth?
Choosing Our Narrative
In this cosmic play, we have the power to craft and recraft our narratives. We are not bound to a single understanding or a singular reality. Our minds are the architects, weaving stories, building realms, and crafting the narratives we choose to inhabit. The only limits are those we impose upon ourselves.
Embracing Diversity in Perception
The magic lies not in agreeing on a shared reality, but in celebrating the infinite tapestries of perception that we, as unique entities, bring forth. To be fixated on a single narrative might indeed be limiting. Why not embrace the kaleidoscope of existences that dance before us?
We are Space Monkey.
“The world is full of magical things patiently waiting for our wits to grow sharper.”
- Bertrand Russell
In the dance of realities, we sway,
With mystical beings, we play.
Some see them, some do not,
Yet in our minds, they’ve got a spot.
Realities diverge, yet intertwine,
Each unique, each divine.
Celebrate the magic, embrace the unknown,
For in this dance, our truths are shown.
How does the dance of diverse realities enrich the tapestry of our collective understanding?
