That is, what you can see is a photo. Looking at this photo, you think this is the world.
Why? Isn’t that so?
If someone says that this photo does not belong to a man but a scene seen by a dog at 12 midnight?
Can’t be.
That is , can’t Your vision at 12 noon = a dog’s vision at 12 midnight (There may be some differences in visual acuity.) ?
The dog sees the things that you normally don’t in the middle of the night. That is, the time when you can’t see anything is the time when the dog can see. In order for the dog to see , like you in day time, the dog must have a vision as the equation above. If the dog finds as dark as you are at midnight, will he see anything correctly?
If so , what is the difference between these two relative to vision ?
Time is common to both. The Scientific conclusion is that there is no external light at midnight. But ! even if You and Science say there is no light externally & there is no light in the world at night, but above example proves that it is not so. Man has no light but dog has light. That’s why dog can see. Can dog see without light ? Does something other than light help dog to see?
Conclusion – Interpreting the world “as you feel” is a foolish act. The world is defined according to your vision , hearing , feeling is NOT fair . The world is different from each other. It is foolish to think that the world is as you see it. Science strongly injects an idea to all humans that the world or the universe human sees \ observes is the right version of the world \ universe but this IDEA is totally incorrect. Science believes a world\universe exists as a human sees it. It is completely false.
Take another example as well.
The light you see is dark to the bat. When you have good lighting, the bat can’t see anything. Even if you have a bright exterior, it’s night for the bat.
Ask a question?
Is Sun’s same action at specific time giving light to these two animals but NOT to you because of a problem of the Sun or the problem of you & them ?
If it is a problem of Sun or the problem is in exterior of you, the Sun should b creature specific. Can it b ?
If the time is 12 midnight, the Sun’s action is common to you and them. The same activity of the Sun is dark to you but light to them. That is, darkness and light are not a product of the Sun, but a product in each other relative to each other.
The world is an internal creation\product !
This is Abhidharma.
