COMMUNISM IN AMBUSH

Sitting with his family, watching television, a person is actually at the presence of a
great miracle. The miracle is that every image the people sitting in the room see is
actually in each person's brain. Is the person in the room, or vice versa?

The image of four surrounding walls is, in reality, within that per-
son’s brain.
T That being the case, are you in the room, or is the room inside
you?
Most people are unaware of this great truth, assuming themselves
to be sitting in a room, watching television or chatting with their fam-
ily. Those who do grasp this fact, on the other hand, pretend not to
understand this miracle, since they fear it. Yet this fact of which they
plead ignorance is undeniable, confirmed by science. Stimuli reach-
ing the eye from the room’s four walls, the pictures or paintings on
them, the television, carpet, furniture, and light on the ceiling are all
transformed by the retina’s cells into electrical currents, then trans-
mitted to the visual center in the brain. A person perceives the image
of the house, which he thinks he is in, in a tiny space in the rear of his
brain.
Never in his whole life can he move outside this space; never can
he see another image, apart from the one on the “screen” in his head.
He can never hear a sound apart from those transmitted to his brain.
A person lives out his whole life within this small, bony room.
