What if... we live in a simulation? Dive deep into reality with LUI's new special

Is reality really as solid as we think it is? Could everything we live be an illusion of the senses?

Earth

LUI BEYOND REALITY invites you on a fascinating journey beyond the perception of reality. From ancient philosophers to modern science, we explore whether the world around us is real or just an illusion. What roles do the senses, consciousness, and technology play in our understanding of existence? We explore Plato's cave, the Buddhist doctrine of maya, Bostrom's theory of simulation, and quantum physics. Prepare for questions that may change your view of reality.

CUPRA x LUI

The CUPRA Terramar revolutionises the SUV concept - combining dynamism, performance and futuristic design that seems to step out of another reality. With aggressive lines and advanced technologies, it redefines the boundaries between sportiness and comfort. Its hybrid powertrain offers not only great efficiency, but also an exhilarating driving experience that takes the reality of driving to a new level.

CUPRA x LUI

Like CUPRA Terramar, LUI BEYOND REALITY explores the boundaries between reality and illusion. While philosophers like Plato and Descartes questioned our reality, the new CUPRA Terramar offers a tangible answer in the form of a world of innovation and pure performance, where every journey can be a unique experience.

The Terramar is not just a means of transport, it is a ticket to a future where technology, emotion and design merge into one. Whether you're looking for answers to questions about the nature of reality or just the perfect car for your travels, you'll find both in this special.

Is death a definitive end or just a transition to another reality? Ancient philosophies, modern science, and the testimony of people with near-death experiences suggest that consciousness can exist beyond the physical body. Discover the theories of reincarnation, quantum immortality and parallel worlds.

What if death really isn't the end of our journey?

Plato's parable of the cave in 5 steps

Step
01

Prisoners in a cave: people chained in a cave see only the shadows of objects on the wall, they do not know reality.

Step
02

Shadows as truth: they believe that shadows are the real world because they have seen nothing else.

Step
03

Escape: one of the prisoners breaks free and discovers the world outside the cave.

Step
04

The recognition of reality: the sun will show him the true reality, the world is not just shadows.

Step
05

Return and rejection: he returns, but the others do not believe him and do not want to leave the cave.
