So, if I perceive that the moon is a flat disc in the sky, this has
reality?

what is unreal is the perception that the moon as a disc is the total reality.
But, the appearance of the moon as a disc is not unreal - it is true, but it is
not the complete truth - the complete truth is it is a 3-D object - similarly,
when the Lord appears as human, the demons think this is it - he is also made of
flesh and bones - but, this is not complete understanding because the Lord's
form is transcendental -the demons' understanding is limited by ignorance.
However, the appearance of the Lord as a human itself is not false - one who
says so is a mayavadi, who considers the material manifestation to be false.
