眼见真的为实吗？｜Is Seeing Truly Believing?

🧐 Is What We See Always Real?

Have you ever heard someone say,
“Seeing is believing”? 
It means: Only the things we see with our eyes are real.

But… is that really true? Sometimes, what we “see” might just be our eyes tricking us!

🌕 Looking at the Moon: Everyone Sees It Differently

When I look at the moon, I think it's a beautiful palace where Chang’e lives with her little bunny.

Long ago, a Chinese poet named Li Bai said:
“The moon looks like a big white plate.”

But a scientist would say,
“The moon is a giant rocky ball. It’s full of craters, lava plains, and mountains.”

So who is right?
Chang’e’s moon? Li Bai’s moon? The scientist’s moon? 🌝🌛🌜

Actually, everyone sees the moon a little differently —
because what we see is also shaped by what we feel and imagine inside our hearts.

🧠 Our Eyes See What the Brain Tells Them To See

Did you know?
What we see isn’t just like a camera photo. 
Our brain is busy putting together all the pieces from light and memory!

For example:
You see a shiny stone in the forest and think, “Treasure!” But the squirrel next to you just sees, “a boring rock.” That’s because what we see outside…
is often a reflection of what’s inside our minds.

🪄 Magicians from Long Ago Could Trick Your Eyes!

A long time ago in India, there were special performers called illusionists. 
They did amazing tricks — like throwing a rope into the sky,
and a child climbed up and disappeared into the clouds! It looked so real!
But it was just a clever trick using sunlight, shiny powder, and angles. They also used two mirrors to make you see endless copies of yourself. Then — SMASH! — they broke the mirrors, and everything disappeared.

That’s a bit like what Buddhists say:
“All things we see are illusions.”

🧘‍♀️ Maybe We Should Look Inside Instead

Since our eyes sometimes trick us,
maybe it’s a good idea to rest them once in a while.

Let’s try closing our eyes and looking into our hearts. ❤️

When our minds become quiet — like a still lake 🌊 —
we might finally see the world a little more clearly and truly.

🎨 Let’s Think!

* Have you ever seen something wrong before?

* Have you ever dreamed something and thought it was real?

* What does your moon look like?

🧐 眼睛看到的一定是真的吗？

你听过人们常说：“眼见为实”吗？

意思是：只有我们亲眼看到的东西才是真的。

但……眼睛看到的一定是真的吗？

有时候，我们以为自己看得清清楚楚，其实只是眼睛在“骗人”呢！

🌕 看月亮：每个人看到的不一样

当我抬头看月亮，会想：“哇，那是嫦娥和玉兔住的地方！”🐰🌙

李白小时候也这么觉得，他写道：“小时不识月，呼作白玉盘。”

在他眼里，月亮像一块洁白的玉盘，或者是一面天上的镜子。

可是科学家却说：“月亮是地球唯一的卫星，是一个大石头球，上面有很多火山口和石头平原。”

你说，谁说得对呢？是嫦娥的月亮？李白的月亮？科学家的月亮？

其实，每个人看到的月亮都不一样，因为我们看到的不只是“月亮”，

而是我们心里想象出来的“月亮”。

🧠 眼睛看到的，其实是大脑加工过的

你知道吗？我们看到的东西，不只是眼睛拍下来的“照片”，而是大脑根据光线和经验重新“拼出来”的画面。

比如：你在森林里看到一块闪闪发光的石头，可能会大叫：“哇，是宝石！”可是旁边的小松鼠看到，它可能想：“嗯，这是一块普普通通的小石头。”🐿️🪨

所以，我们看到的世界，很多时候是我们心里的样子。不一样的人，不一样的心，就会看到不一样的世界。

🪄 古印度的魔术师：他们让你怀疑眼睛

在古代印度，有一种人叫“幻术师”，他们会在街上或树下表演神奇的魔术，比如：把一根绳子扔向天空，一个小孩就顺着绳子往上爬，最后消失在云里！

看起来像是真的，对不对？但其实，那是用特别的光、角度和手法制造出来的幻觉！🎩✨

幻术师还会用两面铜镜，让大家看到“无数个自己”。🪞🪞然后“啪！”的一声打碎镜子，所有的镜中世界就突然消失了。

这就像佛教里说的：“万事万物，其实都是空的。”很多时候，我们看到的，并不一定是真的。

🧘‍♀️ 闭上眼睛，看看我们的心

既然眼睛不总是可靠，那我们也可以休息一下眼睛，闭上眼睛，看看自己的心❤️。

当我们的心像湖水一样安静下来，🌊

我们看到的世界，可能才会更接近真实。✨

🎨 想一想：

你有没有看错过什么东西？😲

你做过让你以为是真的梦吗？🌈

你看到的月亮，长什么样子？🌕
