Unless we're mistaken and it's a dim projection of ourselves instead. Just because you have an impression of something doesn't mean that your
interpretation of that impression has anything to do with reality. We could all name examples, like when we think for a moment that we see a face we recognize, or we think for a moment we hear our name. So this "link" in your chain of logic
cannot prove your premise unless you also hold that our idea of x is ALWAYS correct, and can never correspond to something other than x in reality.
