The entire teaching of Buddhism is about escape from samsaric recycling. Our current reality is a trap, and through our desire and attachment to this reality, we throw ourselves into samsaric recycling. Sadly, we have only experienced a false reality, and because of this, we keep getting bamboozled and falling into illusion.
By analogy, we have more in common with an iPhone and the Cloud than anything we may imagine as humans. But there is more. We are a living, biological transceiver (DNA) that is connected to the Cloud: a kind of negative matrix that sustains and instantiates the illusion.
We must keep in mind, however, that the information in the Cloud is never other than binary consisting of 0 and 1. This is a duality that is responsible for our entrapment. Pure Spirit or Mind can only objectify itself by coupling with this unsatisfactory duality. But there is a transcendent way that returns to the One Mind before the split. In Buddhism, it is nirvana.
