I propose a new realism. One based on the premise that what is "real" depends on the relationship it has with a given entity. We tend to think of reality substantially. Like matter in the ontology of physicalism. But it should become obvious to anyone that what is real depends on a simultaneous relationship or set of relationships to a "real" being. We can call this consciousness or experience or whatever. But it is fundamentally an ontic relationship out of which the reality of the two entities emerges. Reality then as NOT an absolute, but as a relative state or property. Out of this falls the pluralistic consequence of many realities and beings that exist only TO given entities. I live in a reality that is totally real and yet is totally my own. Other realities connect and overlap. But their essential realness derives from being at least instantaneously related to a "realizer"--an entity to which it is true that such and such exists.

Realities tend to evolve for people and reach a peak.  If someone happened to reach perfection, the reality of that person would be true.
