It's the one that asks, how do we know that whate we experience is real, if it's all we've ever experienced? The example being, if people were tied up in a cave, with a fire behind them, and all they could see were their shadows on the wall of the cave, then they would think that was 'reality'. It's really all irrelevent. Live in the here, and the now; the perception of something is all that matters.
