Is the Moon There If No One Looks At It?
As to the down-the-rabbit-hole 'does the moon exist when we are not looking' question. That which asks all questions is the same that which answers all questions. That always is. It is however not good to be alone. One's very own reason companionship otherwise known as love. What it means is that there is only one consciousness which has conceived itself to perceive itself as differentiated so not to feel by itself. The purpose of this one consciousness, which is self really, is companionship otherwise known love. This also being the answer to the why of life. Life's meaning is essentially companionship i.e. love.
