The virtual world has become an important form of our life. While technology is making the life easier at the same time it is taking away the life from us. Here, the question arises, is this an alternate for good or for worse? This study will investigate the concept of virtual reality by exploring the Husserlian probe for imagination. Furthermore, the study attempts to analyse the virtualization of the real world and how the shift from the real to virtual has affected the life of human being. Moreover, the review will target to investigate the meaning of the lifeworld. In the end the study attempts to explore how by following Husserlian phenomenology that saves space for value one could attain a meaningful life.
