I can't prove I'm not making it up.

Nor can I prove that one of us is not being deluded by the imperfections and limitations of this physical existence--or, for that matter, which one.

Just as the majority of humans can tell the difference between red and green, the majority of humans think that some kind of deity exists. Of course, there's at least one chemical that definitely exists, but only minority of humans can taste it. In this life, we can only experience the things that our body/mind/spirit are equipped to experience.

So, when any of us has an experience that is "out of the box", that is unexpected or subtle or hard to put into words, or even just from a different state of consciousness than the ordinary waking consciousness (like a dream), we each have to interpret that experience as best we can.
