No 3 - like the mirage <3
like the mirage that produces an illusory oasis in the desert, the senses create the impression that there is a real world in front of us that is being perceived by the mind. The apparent reality of the world is an illusion. It is merely a misperception. ...
Self inquiry is the process by which attention is put on the substratum, instead of on the names and forms that are habitually imposed on it. Self is the substratum out of which all things appear to manifest and the Jnani is the one who is continually aware of the real substratum.

personal interpretation; in this picture the mirage is already dissolving because the focus of attention is slowly retreating to it's source.
