That doesn't confuse me. Appearances are everything; everything is appearances. Astrology 101. Beyond that is "void".

It might be explained in similar terms like children view sight.

Ask young children who haven't been told how vision works, and most will say that the think vision works by a form of "projection". Where is the vision of the object you see? and they will point over to where the actual object is. The vision of the object is not in their heads, it is outside of them. Maybe thoughts and viewpoints are similar...?
