Every sentence I utter must be understood not as an affirmation, but as a question. -Niels Bohr
We lead a life of preconceived notions where there is absolutely nothing we can ingest using our five senses which can be understood for what it truly is and not because we are conditioned to do so. It is sometimes said by neuroscientists that colours are imagined by our mind because evolution made it inevitable. If there were no colours, we the then primitive sapiens would have probably not survived.
It's also said, that the image we actually see is reversed for a fact and the mind turns it upside down again just so we remain sane. Now imagine if we were to see things as they were actually presented without the mental tricks, the world would turn downside up with no racial biases! It'd just be the lighter or darker side of grey with gravity pushing us up. The sun would go down every morning and rise at night.
Surely, there would be skeptics who'd claim we'll just name everything opposite. But holding that chain of thought, why not implement the same principle as a cure for folks afflicted with say dementia or depression? You could say sunsets were the way to go! The returning tides of the ocean are the best moments of life where light fades away to give way to darkness., which would obviously be the way to go!
Some peace at last. Just to be discarded as soon as your reality kicks in.
