Of course the visualization and the creation are not physically real, nor it could be, and moreover, at times, it tends to lead one astray from the   course of life for the time being or sometimes even permanently; can lead to abnormality if practiced wildly and without proper handling; can take a person away from the reality and the real world around, but still it has its own charm, pleasure and soothing effects upon the person involved in it, provided the person involved knows how to take on the course of imagination how to create and enjoy this fascinating and charming world of imagination.
