Is the world really real?
Reality is merely an illusion, albeit a very persistent one.
Albert Einstein.
"Nothing is as it seems. Nor is it otherwise."
Lankavatara Sutra - Mahāyāna Buddhism
There is no greater mystery than this; that being the reality we seek to gain reality.
Sri Ramana Maharshi (December 30, 1879 – April 14, 1950)
Plato’s cave analogy.
Inprisoned inside the cave (Us), prisoners see the shadows on the wall and mistakenly view the shadows as reality. Every now and agian someone awakens to the truth and tries to tell others (Us), but the others respond with anger.

Greek word "cosmos" Meaning "In The World" functioning apart from God
And according to Early Christian gnosticism - "Seraphims" Keter - Crown Divine Plan ~ The Angel of Death. (Read John 7:7) Satan is the ruler of this "cosmos" (John 12:31; 16:11; 1 John 5:19)
Islam.
The Surah takes its title from the sentence, Wa anzalna' l-hadida, of verse 25.
(A study of its subject matter)
https://www.englishtafsir.com/Quran/57/
Surah Al-Hadid (its title meaning, 'the iron') talks about the reality of the transient life of this world.
Hinduism. (Caught up in Samsara – Maya ~ The Malevolant illusion)

Are we really alive?
◄ Colossians 3:3 ►
For you died, and your life is now hidden with Christ in God.
Seeing that you were dead
[al-Baqarah 2:28]
Hindu/Budhism - Maya, ( Sanskrit: “magic” or “illusion”)
He who is forgetful of the Self, mistaking the physical body for it, and goes through innumerable births, is like one who wanders all over the world in a dream. Thus realising the Self would only be like waking up from the dream-wanderings.
