The Truth behind the illusion may be gleaned and described in several ways despite the inadequacy of language.
Counter-intuitive truths of relativity or quantum mechanics, for example, can be described mathematically and they can, to a degree, be pictured in the mind through the use of syllogisms, paradoxes and allegories. People have been doing this for thousands of years: Plato's cave, Xeno's paradoxes, Schroedinger's cat and Einstein's twins come to mind.
To experience Reality directly and perfectly, however, requires an alteration of consciousness. Just as rotating one's perspective will reveal the truth of an optical illusion, adding a dimension or two to our 3-D consciousness will reveal a Reality previously entirely inconceivable. The problem of communicating this to the sleeping masses remains, though.
Some, like Buddhists, make no attempt to describe the ineffable. Others, like Hindus, weave elaborate and colorful allegories. Only mathematics/logic can truly begin to picture it, but the equations still cannot be directly conceived by a 3rd-state mind.
