3. Interesting. I half agree half don't, but I think we can cope if we see reality as it really is.
4. well, it's a concept millenias old. first written mention can be credited to lao tzu if i remember right. also you can find description on it and ways to cope in nearly any mahayana buddhist text. if you need it short i can recommend prajnaparamita (diamond) sutra, and if explained - lankavatara sutra, specifically english translation by a japanese named daisetz teitaro suzuki. in these texts this concept is expanded and widely discussed, among other matters. same ideas you can find psychology & philosophy works of XIX, XX and current centuries. most of them claim to be 'new' and 'revolutionary' though :) also you might wish to check 'solipsism' concept, for this nearly is the same. any search engine can direct you to descriptions. as a practitioner i can tell that 'to cope' here is not only possible, but greatly beneficial. good luck to you.
