Episode notes
We See Mirrors, Not Reality
- You never see the world as it is; you see the reflection in the mirror of your mind.
- That mirror is shaped by species, identifications and prejudices, so perception is inherently filtered.
Tiger Example Shows Perceptual Limits
- A tiger perceives only food because its mind’s mirror shows only that relevance.
- Different creatures have differently tuned mirrors, so their lived reality is different.
Human Mirror Is Polished But Distortable
- Human minds have a flatter, more refined mirror but it can still be distorted by identifications.
- Strong identification makes everything in the mind distorted, preventing true seeing.
