Basically, the Vedic religion teaches that everything you think you see around you is an illusion. More specifically, the illusion is the idea that anything is separate from anything else, and that you are your body and mind. In reality, according to the Vedic teachings, we are all one without a second, and the only reason that it seems otherwise is that you are wearing illusion upon illusion, so that you are looking at an illusionary landscape through an illusionary pair of eyes, feeling it with illusionary hands, and hearing it through illusionary ears. To illustrate, think about when you dream. You never actually leave your mind, yet you appear to go to many different places and talk to different people. In fact, you are generating these places and people as a projection of your own desires and fears. This is the basic idea behind Vedanta, that all of us are collectively one being generating projections of itself. You may call that being God, the All, the Force, what have you. In Vedanta, it is called Brahmin (bruh-min).
