What is Reality?

Is reality demonstrated by what our physical senses can experience?   When we experience life only from a physical perception, are we missing anything?

Here is an example.  Our physical senses require a device to experience the Internet and infrared waves.  People in the past experienced ideas like these as fantasy.  Prior to the invention of devices to access the Internet and infrared waves, it was fantasy.  In the past people experienced only what their physical senses told them was real.

Today people have accepted the idea that we can experience things not available to our physical senses.  Science discovered that things people thought of as pure fantasy 200 years ago are reality.  What else might there be?

Imagine for a moment what your ancestors from 200 years ago might experience if they were suddenly transported from 1820 to 2020.  How would they feel?  In 1820 people relied only on knowledge from their physical senses.  They did not have devices that increased what their physical senses could experience.

Is there more?   Do you experience life only from a physical perception?
