Mind Creates the Image
Emanuel Kant held that there is an underlying reality, but we cannot know it
directly. All we can ever know is how it appears in our mind. Peter Russell
explains as follows:
When I look at a tree, light reflected from the tree forms an image of the
tree on the retina of my eye. Photosensitive cells in the retina discharge
electrons, triggering electro-chemical impulses that travel down the optic
nerve to the visual cortex of the brain.
There the data undergoes complex processing that reveals shapes, patterns,
colours and movements. The brain then integrates this information into a
coherent whole, creating its own reconstruction of the external world.
Finally, an image of the tree appears in my consciousness.
Similar activities take place with the other senses. In other words,
whatever we perceive -- everything I see, hear, smell, taste and touch --
has been reconstructed from sensory data. It takes the brain about a fifth
of a second to process the sensory information and construct the relevant
picture of reality.
~ Ramesh Balsekar, from: *Nuggets of Wisdom*
