One or the other person seems as saying " i have seen the life very closely ". But the statement is very one sided as one says about life by keeping in mind one's experiences,success and failures of life ...means one's opinion is very much restricted to oneself and becomes one sided as one has limited perceptions of life. But as soon as one comes in ocean one finds that there are sevaral opinions and even misconceptions about life.The thing which i want to convey is that the senses on which we really proud of being human...are those senses always give the correct rresults ?
We sometimes hear about a particular person or thing and starts giving our opinion irrespective of taking into account its negative and positive side....we simply beleive what we merely see or here....keeping aside the big morals of " faith,trust,beleive etc,". I  just don't say that i will be everytime correct ...i am just telling the way we think and in turn the what we got. Another big problem arises when we MAKE THE OPINION ABOUT THE WHOLE COMMUNITY BY CONSIDERING IT'S ONE PERSON ONLY. It's very example is of muslim community where each muslim is seen as suspicious because of few spreading terror ....So the thing is that ine must be very rational,patient and impartial regarding one's blood raltions,country,caste etc. while reaching at a conclusion because it is not necessary that the thing which we "SEE" or " HEAR" will always be true.....

Hi Anuj, You are absolutely correct in what you are saying. Our physical body when undergoing reductionism, meaning that when we break it down into its smaller sub-components is made up of a series of systems (cardiovascular, endocrine, nervous, urinary etc...), those systems are made up of various Organs (Kidneys, Heart, Liver etc...), those Organs are made up of Tissue's, the Tissues are made up of cells, our cells when broken down are made up of Organelles, which include within them Molecules, Molecules transcend and include Atoms, and atoms both transcend and include various types of sub-atomic particles, which are actually mathematical wave functions. So when we place the physical body under reductionism we see that we are essentially vibrational in nature. Governing our physical body is our Nervous system, which has both a sensory input and a motor output, so we basically have a receiving and broadcasting component to our nature, and so just as an atom absorbs and emits light, so to do humans absorb (receive) and emit (broadcast) information. So, our sensory world is basically picking up on vibrations through our senses, Visual, auditory, smell, taste, tactile and kinesthetic, these senses are picking up on the vibrations of either solids, liquids, gases or plasma, which are all various vibrational states, but we are literally picking up on vibrations. We are also giving off vibrations, and there are machines that can pick up on the subtle vibrations that are given off from the human body.

So we can state with certainty, that not only are we vibrational in nature, we are picking up on and giving off vibrations also. Now, Dr John Demartini says, that whatever we are picking up on in our vibratory world, is what we call our reality, because he says, that reality can be defined as that which is realized by the senses, as compared to actuality, which is that which is actually there. Because our senses exist in a very limited part of a spectrum, what we are picking up on, is only a small subset of the infinite possibilities that actually exist in actuality. If we just take hearing as an example, we know that there are frequencies that are so low, that they are in-audiable to the human ear, and we also know that there are frequencies that are too high, for the human ear to be able receive. Our range of what we hear is limited within that spectrum. If or whenever we increase our range, either up or down, we call extra Sensory Perception (ESP). So our senses are only picking up on a very small finite part of the infinite, our senses do not give us the entire truth, they are limited in the information they can present us with. To complicate this even further, each individual person has their own unique hierarchy of values, things that are most important to them right down to the things that are least important to them. Through our values we filter out the world in accordance with those values, and our values determine how we see and act upon the world. If a male and a female are walking through the mall, and his highest values are business and finance, sports,and computers etc.., and her highest values are is children's clothing, children's health, schooling and education, then as they walk through the mall, he will be seeing business and financial opportunities, computers and sporting goods, he won't even notice the clothing stores, and children's educational stores, and vise versa, she will notice what is most important to her, and not notice the things of lower importance to herself. So because no two people will have the same values, then no two people will see or act upon the world in the same way. Even if we had three people all witness an accident that occurred directly in front of them, all three would give different descriptions of what just occurred, and which one would we think was correct?

The ability to understand and take on another persons perspective is to come from a place of caring, not carelessness, or carefulness, it is not to exaggerate ourselves and minimize another, and it is not minimize ourselves and exaggerate the other, it is to understand we all have our own perspectives, and our perspectives from our own vantage point are correct to us. By coming from a centered caring perspective, we move out of the ego and ethnocentric world views, and we move into a world centric world view.

Through our values we filter out the world in accordance with those values, and our values determine how we see and act upon the world. Awesome. Its such a shame that people with the greatest physical controlling power in the world,cannot act for the best intentions for their fellow man purely based on the mechanisms and programming that aspired them to where and what they are. Pleasure reading this. A bit off topic but my mind got glued to that sentance and would not let go.
