The material universe is a creation of our senses.

Matter exists only because we have senses that detect their existence, passing the message to the brain. If we did not have the senses or the brain, the matter would not exist for us. How could perceive the existence of matter, a person devoid of the five senses? Or, another who has the senses, but the brain does not work? Therefore, we conclude that the matter exists as a creation of our senses and our brain.

The senses is that "constitute" the matter giving her existence. The senses are what give form to matter. By the senses we may distinguish the colors, the sounds, the smells, the taste, and texture, however they are very limited.

The colors, for example, are distinguished by us by compliance with each wave, but our vision is limited, i.e., she only sees waves of a minimum and maximum length, because the others are not perceived. It is for this reason that ultraviolet and infrared are recognized as existing by its chemical and thermal effects, but can not be seen. As, however, they are identified by other senses, we have no doubt as to its existence. When you listen to stereo music in a suitable environment, music is perceived as if it were being emitted from a central point, where the orchestra has generated. A show laser generates an image perceived as being at the intersection of the rays, i.e., a virtual image. Who knew that the expansion of a hologram can reproduce the whole and is not just an increase in size of a part, as occurs with conventional figures? All us know dozens of exercises that demonstrate the optical illusion. Nothing prevents, however, to accept the universe no material, if only because we live with it when it comes to something related, for example, with imagination, feelings, and geniality.
