I mean, I guess that’s true in a peculirar sort of way in which nothing really exists outside of our perception of it.
What I mean by that is that whatever we see, hear, taste, etc… is merely neurons firing in our brain, processing a signal that it receives. So if we’re looking at a tree for example; that tree is just light/energy waves vibrating on a specific frequency. It’s only when it hits our optic nerve and travels to our brain that it’s translating into something that we call a “tree”.
So when the eyes are closed, the random interference pattern could indeed be interpreted as you say. Goog catch. Kind of makes you wonder.
What you’re seeing is the inner workings of the holographic universe we inhabit. Your brain interprets the signal as static.
/Obviously I’m not serious…
But you’re right.
Only the hologram is produced by the nervous system. Not God’s super computer or whatever.

Yeah there’s a term for it in Hinduism, Maya.
I’ve also spent a lot of time and study with Buddhism. Explored a lot of mind altering drugs.
Perception is a map of the territory influenced by karma (evolution and personal experience) In constant feedback with the territory, of course.
But the map edits itself out. Because when a tiger appears on the map we need to run, not debate rather or not there’s really a tiger.
