No...thats not what I meant. People have eyes, the see through eyes and judge most of this world based on what they see but there are also inner eyes within every person, inner eyes of understanding the surroundings. All people have eyes within them, in metaphysical world, and these eyes are the soul of the person. The person perceives the world within the inner eyes and thus perceives the reality of the situation. The question I ask is why all people having the such different inner metaphysical perceptions of reality when reality is the same?
Ah, you're being 'philosophical', then I vote that this thread gets moved to the 'Contemplating your own belly button and other such pointless pursuits' section.
Does the echoing of echoes cease to echo? Or do those echoes forever echo, echoing into our souls, like an echo. Are we but echoes? Please Register or Log in to view the hidden image!
They see but do not understand, they hear but do not listen. Let it be. It's human nature to remain ignorant save for the precious few that shine the lights to lead the way. Trouble is, the torch bearers each shine on a multitude of paths that are not necessarily desirable for all and even they remain blind, except for the paths they can see, and therefore, you have the blind leading the blind. Philosophies lead to nowhere but go round in circles where the illuminated path merely seems interesting but ultimately means nothing.
Reality is unique to each person. Your reality is not the same as mine or the same as some kid born in a Soweto slum X 6 billion different realities. Globalisation, Internet, TV and movies only serve to offer a superficial perception of a universal reality.
Terry Pratchett says that most people have second sight, and see what they want to see. Only a few have first sight, and see what's really there.
Dragon: Obviously you made a big mistake on posting a poll without an explanation for it. Say what you mean and mean what you say.
Wow! I never expected anyone else to have voted for the last option. I didn't think anyone here was bold enough to "admit" that they are as "arrogant" and "narrow-minded" as to claim that they could see...
