Is reality real? - A philosophic reflection on perception

Rabbit-Hole.jpg

Life is a journey of constant correction - on the road of 'progress'.

Perceived correction.
Perceived progress.

Is what is perceived represented in actual reality?
What are the measures of perception?
What are the measures of reality?
What are the best possible strategies for having an accurate perception of reality not based solely on our perception?

We can immediately improve our chances of perceiving a realer perception of reality by accepting that what we deem reality at present is merely a perception of reality and not reality itself.

To believe a perception of reality is reality is to become 'perceived' and to no longer be the perceiver.

All ideas of real reality are perceptions.

We can also then further increase our knowledge of reality (real reality) by acknowledging that reality cannot be known - in that reality cannot be perceived, in that perception is unable to definitively define what reality is to an ultimate gold standard of 'is-ness'.

This assists because no matter how real we become convinced something is, we must at any moment be able to acknowledge that is it not real.

Otherwise we actually become perceived and we stop being the perceiver - that which resides in the domains and intricacies of perception and not the perceiver itself. A picture of a perceiver within a perceived picture.

In this, true objectivity can never be achieved - only ideas of it.


This is not a limitation but a point of liberation.

It allows all ideas to flourish alongside each other in a broad banquet of perception by maintaining the position of perceiver at all times - seeing rabbit holes or domains of perception but never committing to any one of them as an absolute rule of thumb.

The biggest and most enticing rabbit hole of them all it would seem is the belief in an empirically provable objective reality - the belief that 'progress' is the path of cementing an idea of objective reality until this perceived reality - a picture - becomes so solid, that nothing moves in it anymore.

Here it must now be said - all indulgence in any one rabbit hole to its extreme leads to fascism - promoting rigidity of concept.

This forces the creation of a timed event called a reset.
