Witness Unbiased Actuality · Free of Cognitive Distortions
⁘ “What about actuality? Raw reality? Existence as it is? So many objections to an objective reality. Our senses filter reality. We can't see or hear things as they are. But that's not the point here. We're not talking about external measurements for actuality. We're talking about the removal of internal distortions. When the inputs from reality are not warped by your subjective filters and cognitive bias — then we are approaching actuality.”
What about actuality? Raw reality.
The itness and suchness of being and becoming.
Existence as it is.
And how many the objections
to the thought of an objective reality out there?
You only see a limited spectrum of light.
You only hear a limited range of frequencies.
You cannot see or hear things as they are.
But that's not the point here.
We're not talking about
external measurements in reaching actuality.
We're talking about the removal of internal distortions.
It doesn't matter if you are a deity
perceiving gamma rays and hearing at the gigahertz frequency,
if you still pour it back
into your subjective filters – it's all the same.
What you make of it, or you don't – that's the point.
When you don't, that is,
when none of the inputs from reality
need to go through your little filters,
through your selective process,
through your cognitive bias,
through your distorting lenses.
Then we are reaching actuality, as it is,
beyond your ideas and reactions.
