Quote:'The veil of maya' is supposed to be the veil that we open to see actual reality. It is a hindu idea but plato believed it too i think.
The word maya means "energy", and it also means "illution". This world is made of maya, and I think Plato's ideas would be included as well. I am not entirely certain here, but I think that the idea of a chair, for instance, is every bit as much maya as the actual chair.
