The Essence of the World

The world is made of subjectivity.

Here, subjectivity does not refer to psychological opinions or emotions like “I think this” or “I believe that,” but rather to all phenomena experienced by self-awareness through all forms of recognition and perception.

The world may appear to exist externally, but all of it consists of things that are recognized and perceived by the self.

This recognition and perception are entirely subjective.

Even things we call objective are, in essence, still subjective.

This is because what we call objectivity is merely objectivity seen through subjectivity—filtered by one's own recognition and perception.

Therefore, something that can truly be called objective does not actually exist. There exists only the subjective world perceived by subjectivity.

Generally speaking, things that can be shared with others are often treated as truth, while personal experiences are dismissed as false.

However, in reality, both are equally part of the world recognized by the self.

Thus, whether or not something can be shared with others, it holds the same weight and meaning for the self.

It is simply a matter of whether the self perceives it as a shared phenomenon or a non-shared phenomenon.
To the self who perceives that world, they are equally meaningful scenes of the same world.

In truth, neither people nor living beings are seeing as much of a common world as we tend to assume.

It's like believing you and someone else are dreaming the same dream. You're not actually sharing the dream's content; you're merely recognizing that the structure appears similar.

In reality, even what we feel is being shared is not experienced identically.

It is fundamental that each of us is seeing a different subjective world, and the only difference is whether something is perceived as shareable with others or not.

Therefore, to treat anything outside of shared phenomena as fake is, in practice, equivalent to ignoring 80% of the world.
That’s because the truth is, non-shared phenomena overwhelmingly outnumber shared ones in the subjective world.

This applies equally to both ourselves and others. Just because something cannot be recognized by the self doesn’t mean it should be denied, nor should it be dismissed by others.

That’s because each subjective world is different, and in fact, we are all living within our own subjective worlds.
