Abstract

The discussion on the possibilities of the comprehension of reality is a basic
precondition for understanding the communication process. There is no man who can
utterly comprehend it, not only because of its extent, but because of its spatial and
temporal expandability, complexity and immeasurable size. One cannot easily renounce
the latest theories on the existence of multiple parallel worlds, even parallel space and
time, just because they have not been empirically proven yet. A sufficient reason for
their appreciation is that they cannot be proven impossible either. The reality exists,
therefore it is true. The reality is what it is; therefore the truth is what it is. It is the only
unvarnished truth, no matter how much immeasurable it is. A media representation of
the truth is separated by five levels of distortion from the reality, and it is only a shadow
of a shadow's shadow of a reflection's reflection of the reality.

Keywords
