Your Reality vs Actual Reality

[Wyatt]

I think it's interesting that these guys so are certain that there's a real external reality outside of our personal perceptions

How they are wrong?

In my direct experience, my reality is the only reality.  So umm.. *shrug*

A common feature of the stage Blue/Orange mindset.

What about your fantasied reality?

Or you thought you saw a bear coming? But turn out it is a dog?

So is that your reality or actual reality?

This isn't really about materialism. It's just mainstream self-help stuff.

Yeah but to reason about everyday survival and decisions in some fields it's a good mindset to deal with the commonalities of the shared reality with other avatars, which is basically is what Stage Orange and Blue people define as "objective reality".

If for example you have some problem with color perception and you don't perceive the red light of a traffic light as red, as "others" do, there is a treat for your survival so you need to adapt your way of perceiving with the "objective reality" of the traffic light being perceived as what we call "colour red"
