Mysticism Memes

Physicists spent centuries developing complex mathematical frameworks only to arrive at the same conclusion as ancient mystics: reality isn't what it seems. General relativity tells us spacetime is bendable and relative, while quantum mechanics suggests particles exist in probabilistic states until observed. Meanwhile, mystics have been saying "everything is one" and "reality is an illusion" for millennia without a single equation. The person in the meme is essentially the modern physicist getting booed for rediscovering ancient wisdom with extra steps. Turns out you don't need a PhD to question the nature of reality—just some incense and a good meditation cushion.
