World means so different to different people

World means so different to different people

Our entire experience and the meanings we attribute to things are a function of our experiences. Everyone has different experiences and as such everyone views the world slightly differently. For example, can you say that your perception of the color blue is the same as the next person. While the wavelength of the light entering your eye is the same the way your brain interprets the color might be different at a pure experiential level.?

Furthermore let's say your baby room was painted blue and you have all these memories of your parents cuddling you and paying attention to you in a blue room. This would likely create a positive association with the color blue and as such blue is a comforting color. Now a different person may have been locked in a blue closet by terrible parents who consistently beat them and demeaned them. Likely the color blue is not a comforting color to them as it brings forth memories of abuse, whether conscious or unconscious. And as such the experience of the color blue is wildly different for both examples I used.

This same principle applies to every single aspect of our lives. To go more in depth the number of memory connections your brains form is greatly increased when new stimuli are have a reference point within your experience. Which is to say is that your very brain seeks to define things in terms of the experiences you already have and that is how memories are formed. So as you learn and grow as a person you are building a comprehensive database of information which is built upon your experiences and as such each individual creates their own unique definition of reality based upon the unique experiences of their life along with various tendencies dictated by their unique genetic makeup. We see the world as we are.

Yes as we have the lenses we will see the world , if we have pink colored glass over our eyes we will see world pink, similarly whatever our perceptions are we the world accordingly , I we are lusty we will see world for our own enjoyment , if we are greedy we will see in that way but if we are devotees of God we will see presence of God everywhere. It means we each have our own particular and unique world-view. Depending on where you grew up, and things that you have been taught, and what has happened to you and around you- these things form your perspectives. The way you see things and feel about things may not be as another individual would view them. Who is correct? Maybe neither or both.

Perception is projection. When people treat me wonderfully, I’m tempted to think they recognize my inherent wonderfulness. But I’ve come to realize that wonderful people project their wonderfulness onto everyone. And unfortunately, people experiencing paranoia project their fear and hostility onto everyone, too. If you have a friend who thinks you’re great and everyone else is a moron, be prepared to wear the letter “M” very soon.

I used to think worldviews are self-reinforcing because people respond in kind. But there are significant counterexamples: Even mental health workers are often unable to get people experiencing paranoia to see them as anything but hostile. My wonderful friends persist in seeing me as wonderful even when I fail to answer their phone calls and say stupid things at their parties. Wonderful people will flatten you with their wonderfulness-projection no matter what you do. They seem pretty happy and we certainly can’t beat them, so we might as well join them in their wonderfulness.?

That expression of course purports to express a universal and objective truth about the world (though it's a bit meta). Human experience is shaped by our five sensory systems in addition to the ideas and models we impose on that experience. We know what we perceive but what is reality we don't know. If we would have been a cat or dog we would be seeing reality in a complete different colours and might be smelling dozens of things.

Even among humans people don't see objects as it is…we create our own meanings and conclusions to everything we could perceive but is it really there ? That's the reason everyone has different ways of looking at things…Difference in meanings and conclusions to things means different ideas and different perspective does it mean different realities?Words, meanings, reasoning, conclusion, discrimination etc doesn't exist anywhere other than our minds. If we want to see word as it really is every such things needs to be omitted.

We are mobile perceivers; our brains must make internal maps of external reality so we can navigate the terrain which is often hostile and at the same time rich with opportunities. When we pay attention to the terrain, we are actually paying attention to the maps of that terrain inside our minds, our imagination (note the word “image” in imagination). Those images are part of how we are, and as such, are only representative of the real world outside our heads.

There is a way for us mobile perceivers to perceive the real world of vibrating energy that exists outside our minds (maps) but the act of perceiving it is against nature, that is, not favored by evolutionary pressures to read maps for the sake of bodily survival, so it is an esoteric and unsafe technique. Of course, life is a bit different now; modern civilization in peacetime is much safer that the conditions in which we evolved all our cognitive functions so perhaps we now have the luxury to learn how to re-direct our attention away from our internal maps and onto the real world of vibrating energy. It is highly entertaining, very disorienting (at first) and it takes years of practice to integrate that into one’s everyday mundane life experience. Cheers!
