The Touching One About Living In Your Own Separate Reality
Manage episode 317057415 series 3301456
What does it mean to live in the “real world”? And whose “real world” are we talking about - the “real world” that you experience, perhaps, or the “real world” that I as a middle-aged dreadlocked Yorkshireman experience? Is there really only ONE “real world”, one reality, or do we all actually live in separately created realities?
In other words, do you think others see the world the same way that you do? See the same problems in that world that you see, and see the same solutions to those problems? And if they don’t, should they do? (Should they have the same values as you, too, and the same political views?) Or…
Or, could it be possible that there really is no such thing as one reality, just one perception (of billions) of that reality? Not one meaning, but many meanings? And could more fully understanding the unique way that other human beings see things be useful to us all?...
“Reality exists in the human mind, and nowhere else.” — George Orwell
