        %REFLEXIVE REALITY REAL PERSONAL CONCEPTION 881104

     Some realities exist independent of the perceiver and
may  rightly be regarded as objective realities which  can
not  have  their  nature  changed  by  human   conception.
Different   people   may   perceive   the   same   reality
differently, but that need not be regarded as changing the
character  of  the  objective reality,  yet  such  is  not
always the case.

     Some realities are realized through human conception.
They do not have any reality apart from human  conception.
They  are  not "out there",  but rather are  functions  of
human conception and perception.

     The  nature of human relationships depend  upon  what
humans believe regarding their relationships.   There is a
wide  range  in  the  possible  characteristics  of  human
relationships.   The actual characteristics of real  human
relationships  depends strongly upon the belief systems of
the humans who are participants in the relationships.

     Human relationships  are not  realities  which  exist
independently  of those who perceive the realities.    The
realities  are conceived in the process of realizing  what
they are; the conception process,  the realization process
and  the  perception process are all aspects of one  whole
process   which  brings  the  reality  into   being   with
consciousness.

     It  is  not helpful to pretend  to  understand  human
relationships   from  within  the  paradigm  of  objective
scientists  who  deal  only  with  realities  which  exist
independent of those who  perceive the realities.  Even in
the  relationships between scientists and in the  abstract
realities  which  they  apprehend  there  is  a  level  of
perception and theory where one needs to ask how objective
are the elementary parts which are conceived to be real by
the  objective  scientists.    To  what  extent  are   the
elementary  realities conceptions of scientists,  and  to
what extent are they independent  realities  which are not
dependent upon human conception?
