कमरे में कुछ नहीं है, फिर भी अचानक साँप दिखे — यह Hallucination है। Illusion में चीज़ होती है पर हम उसे कुछ और समझ लेते हैं, जैसे रस्सी को साँप। Delusion एक fixed false belief है और mirage गर्म सड़क पर दिखता पानी।
Picture an empty room where you suddenly ‘see’ a snake: nothing is there at all — that is a hallucination. In an illusion something is really there but you mistake it, like a rope taken for a snake. Delusion is a fixed false belief, and a mirage is water seen on a hot road.
