Reality of the Seen and Unseen

It's a pity that the concrete realities - the massive existence of the entire universe has been caged in the impotent human languages. Even the most dominating reality (the Existence of Being) that human history has ever known is also subject to abstraction. The only merciless machine, the only tool, the only method that can instantly and irreversibly convert any reality into abstraction is the Human Language. Any Reality can be victim to human language. I can feel my existence - and this is the reality. The reality is what one can feel because my feelings are purely under my possession, without the interference of any external physical elements - the possession of my very flesh and skin. My feelings are the possession of my mind, and the only external touch that my feelings can have is my body, and that's the limit. The limit of my feelings is my body. And with this feeling I become conscious of my existence. It is the purest experience, the most genuine experience. Does this make reality a subjective experience, and cannot be tested objectively? Does this mean that we cannot see reality from a third person's eye? Yes, you can - but objectivity is not enough to handle reality. Objectivity is limited and rigid. Subjectivity is an unleashed exploration of the Self. Reality is a subjective experience, not an objective fact. The only reality that I can comfortably talk about is the reality of my being, rest of the realities are difficult to even guess. That was all about the aspects of reality. I will now move on to the question that what reality is in fact. What's the reality of a chair? Frankly, I do not know. I can only guess. The question is not about my reality, the question is about the reality of some other object. So, I guess the reality of chair lies in its existence. A chair exists because it is been manufactured. A chair is manufactured because people want something to sit on. So the reality of a chair is that it is been constructed by the people for the people to sit. But, what if someone uses a chair to pop the door open instead of sitting on it? That's also its reality. We can go on and on describing the reality of other things without getting to a single conclusion. In order to get to a reasonable conclusion one must discuss the reality of oneself, OR at least the reality of the objects that are similar to oneself (i.e. other human beings). Human Beings are different from rest of the universe. Unlike other objects, human beings have undoubtedly more than one realities: one reality is that which I let you see (or you notice by yourself), other reality is that which I do not let you see (or which you could not see), another reality is that which even I cannot see about myself, and there can be many more. But the most obvious realities are these three which I have just stated. If you ponder for a moment, you will notice that in order to determine the reality of the chair I was using my cognitive powers or my mental faculties (or my mind). I was unable to conceive the reality of the chair with my 5 senses. Now, one might say this: "How do you know that the object you are talking about is a "chair" and not a "camel"? You know that because you first used your 5 senses (the sense of sight)!" The reality that is determined by the five senses is called "The Reality of Being". The Reality of Being of a chair is that it has 4 legs, one seat, one back and two arms. The Reality of Being of a Human Being is that it stands straight on two legs, has a well-formed face and tuned voice. The Reality of Being of a marker is that it is long, thick, pointed from one end and straight from the other, and covered with observable ink at its pointed end. The Reality of Being is simply what your eyes see. In most awkward terms, you can say that the Reality of Being is the Form and Structure of the object through which we can determine what we are looking at. English Grammar addresses Reality of Being as "Concrete Nouns": The nouns that can be observed through 5 senses. We have other nouns that are beyond observation of 5 senses (abstract nouns). In terms of Reality, there are three abstract nouns:

1. Surface Reality: The reality that people pretend to have. Surface Reality is also that reality which you may or may not pretend to have, but the world misconstrues it to be your inner reality. World often misconstrues it because their cognitive processes are too much based on 5 senses and too little on analysis.
2. Inner Reality: The reality that you think you have. Mostly, the things people try to hide in them are called Inner Realities. However, Inner Realities can also be same as Surface Realities at some instance. Inner Realities are difficult to conceive as it requires higher cognitive skills and 5 senses.
3. Hidden Reality: The reality that you cannot conceive yet. Hidden Realities are those realities that no one knows, not even you. The undiscovered realities - you may call it. The Hidden Realities that are when discovered become Inner Realities. Hidden Realities often spring up from unconscious level of mind and regulate your personality in almost every aspect. You can also call it "Unravelled Reality"

There is a person ABC.

1. Person ABC is a Human
2. Person ABC is a Male
3. Person ABC is a Teacher
4. Person ABC is a Father
5. Person ABC hates himself

Let us see how many realities he can have:

1. Human = Reality of Being
2. Male = Reality of Being
3. Teacher = Inner Reality OR Surface Reality (depends)
4. Father = Inner Reality OR Surface Reality (depends)
5. Self-Hater = Hidden Reality OR Unnoticed Reality

In English Grammar Teacher and Father are categorized as Nouns, as if I can determine that you are a father just by looking at your face. Every male holding a baby in his arm is not a father - that's no proof of his being a father. Whether someone is a teacher or not - that's not a question that can be answered by using only 5 senses - I have to use cognitive processing, I have to analyze the environment, context, situation, circumstances, behaviours, routine patterns, culture and then link them up together to form a conclusion. Then I will test and apply my conclusion to the person ABC and then determine that whether he is a teacher or not. There are millions of abstractions that my mind will go through before determining the profession of the person ABC. Now, here is another twist. When from distance we are analyzing the person ABC who is standing on the bus stop, we are saying that "he is a Teacher I think". When we said that it means we are talking about his Surface Reality. After a moment he sits in the bus and starts reading a course book. We again say that "look look he is preparing his lecture, he is a teacher.". We looked at his posture at the bus stop analyzed what we saw and guessed that he is a teacher. Then in the bus, we saw him reading a course book, we again said that he is a teacher because we saw something and analyzed it. A moment later he goes into the school and starts teaching a class. We again say "That's it. He is a teacher." So, now with our objective analysis we characterized his Inner Reality as a "Teacher". That's good. Now, when we listened to his lecture and  found him unprepared. We thought that today it might not be his good day. So, we revisited the school tomorrow again, and observed him. We found him still unprepared. And not only this, we even found him incapable of handling his class decorum and delivering his lecture. We concluded, "He is by profession a teacher, but he really does not know what is to be teacher!" So, after this we recategorized the information. We now say that he is by profession a teacher (Surface Reality) but does not have the essence of a Teacher (Inner Reality).

Now, in all this we actually couldn't figure out that he is a patient and near to his death, and this ineffective teaching is just a result of this. In the past few months he has won The Best Teacher prize. We didn't know that. So Inner Reality has been misinterpreted. Now shall we ask the person ABC that what does he think about this? From the perspective of person ABC, the fact that he is a teacher, is for him, is his Reality of Being. It is the part of his existence that he is a teacher. Why? Because he can feel the Reality of being a Teacher. We cannot feel someone else's reality of being. We can just observe him that since he is teaching, he is a teacher. We are dependent on his activity. Until we see him teaching, we cannot determine whether he is a teacher or not. An objective observer requires additional actions to be performed by the person ABC in order to determine that he is a teacher; whereas, the person ABC does not require any additional action in order to determine that he is a teacher. Because he feels the Reality of a Teacher. Feelings do not require proofs. Judgements do. It's just a matter of perspective. There is another reality that I would like to refer to the "Reality" - with the capital "R". This is a reality that contains all other forms of realities. A person who pretends to be honest but he is actually not is his Reality. Pretending to be Honest is the part of his Surface Reality. But since, he understands and practices honesty at some degree therefore it is also his Inner Reality. The concept of Reality (with a capital "r") holds that whatever the person is ( inwardly or outwardly) all of this is his Reality. That was a short paragraph about the 5th type of Reality. The main point that I want to make is that the abstract nouns (like "mother", "father", "teacher") are realities that require cognitive processing. You cannot tell about someone just by looking at him that he is a teacher or she is a mother. Because if you do, this will count as Surface Reality. We are least interested in Surface Reality. Inner Realities or Hidden Realities are the realities that attract us more. If you claim that you just need to look at someone in order to determine the Inner Reality of someone, I say that either you are God-gifted or you are that person's sole mate, because only these two people can determine someone's Reality of Being (The Reality that can only be well-explained by the owner of this Reality).
