There were a lot of good points made from different sides. So thinking about red buses and perception I came to following conclusions:

1. There is no filter in front of our mind. Our mind and therefore we ourselves ARE the filter. If we change the function of our brain via chemicals or meditation or whatever, of course our perception will change. But we can't take on the filter of another person, because it is always connected to an individual brain and it's function.

2. Two people cannot in any possible way have the same experience. Our brains are the means of perception and as Bardy said, "We don’t experience red as a wavelength, we experience it as a colour." Which means we don't see with our eyes but with our brains. Since every brain is unique, every experience must be as well. Even in the same person each experience of perception is the result of a the current state of your brain which itself changes all the time. A man can't step into the same river twice and he can never have the exact same experience again.

3. We can still assume that our perceptions will be somewhat similar to those of other people, just because our brains are, shaped by the long evolution of our common ancestors. But we can never fully prove it because there is just no way to compare.




I'm good with this interpretation.

Maybe a slight divergence in agreement on semantics.

But very beautifully presented.



It's a shame how lacking my associates in science education was.

Fortunately I love reading textbooks cover to cover and absorb them like a sponge, so I went much further than the assigned reading and finished additional textbooks beyond the class syllabus.

A&P one and two textbooks have very limited coverage of the brain's A&P

Second year psychology and chemistry also is hardly more than an introduction.

Fortunately, I've always enjoyed spending my days in the pages of textbooks and fiction.

But there is so much to learn just to say you have scratched the surface.

Especially when it comes to the study needed in relation to the op's question.

College doesn't even start to unravel the partial picture of the world that we have available to us so far.

It would take a tremendous amount of study just to start to understand even the little bit that we know in relation to the op's question.

But I think you have a good way of looking at the subject.

Lacking the massive curriculum anyone would need to really understand what was going on, I think you still have valid points.

Just take um like you get um.

Those ephemeral spasms of infinity, in suspended animation, born across a boundless ether of existential misery aloft a revelry (of awe) for the abhorrently sublime.
