What doth life?

You. You doth life.
no, no, doth is does
so he’s asking, ‘what does life do?’, or ‘what is life doing?’

thou (you) belongs to dost, if we’re in this period

What's the opposite of an illusion?

Like a reflection, or consciousness. Almost not real.

Define 'illusion.'

The opposite of an illusion is generally going to be something real and tangible, if we assume all illusions to be intangible figments of the mind resulting from misdirection* or hallucinations.**


*Most stage magician tricks rely on distracting you so that they can create the illusion of something magical happening rather than the (impressive) acts of sleight of hand and complicated propwork.

**Such as mirages, when the way the light and heat of a desert interact makes the brain think it sees water in the distance.

There once was a dwarf in a cave,
who many would consider brave.
With a head like a block
he went out for a sock,
his ass I won't bother to save.

It ranges pretty far from that, too -- one opposite to illusion would be death and escape from the cycle of reincarnation, ferex, as the output of our senses and interaction with the world is considered an illusion rather than something genuinely real.

As you note, gotta' figure out which illusion you're talking about first, otherwise you're going to have contradictory answers for its opposite :V
