Reality and Surreality (Concept)

Reality and Surreality are two different realms, and form part of an idea developed by Roxanne Roelofse in 2001, of dichotomy within the universe.

One can choose the reality through which one lives.

There are 'masters' (influential people) who have power within these realms. One can choose the realm within which one would like to experience success, happiness and power. One can choose the realm within which one would like to be a 'master.'

The Lords of Reality are generally those who are often in dominating positions within the system / establishment.

By contrast, the Lords of Surreality are those who have transcended the system / establishment, and they are quite often involved in magick and the esoteric world. The Lords of Surreality are either involved in the artistic world, or show an appreciation for the arts in general. They live among us, and they are not necessarily wealthy in the material sense of the word - but they are spiritually wealthy and influential. If the Lords of Surreality should acquire material wealth, they regard this as merely supplementary, as their wealth lies in the spiritual realm. They find beauty and happiness under the most difficult circumstances, and their aim is to create.

The word 'Surreality' derives from the word 'Surrealism' - the name of the art movement of which Salvador Dalí was part.
