Buddhism teaches that what is real is experience; seeing, hearing, smelling, tasting, feeling, thinking.
From this perspective, is virtual reality, (video games, [Oculus Rift] [1] , and such) objectively less "real" than reality? One certainly sees, hears, feels and thinks in virtual reality.
If material objects are not real; are digital images of them any less real?
I suspect there is an objective answer to this from a Buddhist point of view and I'm interested in understanding it.
