i'd be happy to clear that one up. It's going to take some open minded thinking, but here goes:
our mind's are what we have in existence. our minds interpret vision, memories, language, everything. If your mind wasn't relaying correct information, then everything you experience is in essence wrong. If your mind can be proven to misinterpret even one thing, that means everything is open for misinterpretation. Everything we experience, we have experience because our minds have told us we have experienced it. We can't be 100% sure that information is accurate.
The easiest way to illustrate this is with an optical illusion.
