Just some thoughts...

Is it possible to live life without fixed ideas about how we "think" the world is?

We can bend reality to meet our mentality, whatever it may be, so how can we say for certain what is natural and what is unnatural, if what we think about is what we become.

We all learn from the toxicity of the world, How do we know that one way is the right way when in our eyes our way is the only way.

You can say science is the answer, but life consist of both logic and feeling. How can you discount what you feel inside, when what we feel, feels realer than what we think, and yet ideas can be as real as we can make them be.

If we view the world from only one point, how can we ever hope to understand it when it consist of many interacting points of view.

A habit can become and feel as natural as eating or breathing, so if it can happen to an individual, a way of thinking can become a habit to the masses who feel and think that it is only natural.
this is why ive always said that reality doesnt exist, because reality changes with different points of view, depending on the situation at hand

To say there is no objective reality and that the world consists of points of view suggests that our senses show us an accurate and complete picture of the world. If our points of view just show us parts of the "complete picture", then there is an objective reality. I think the latter is the stronger possibility.

Can you make someone else sick by thinking about it?

^whether there was or there wasnt an objective reality, in the end whatever you believe will be based on a subjective reality, belief, understanding, opinion, standard/limit of living and thinking, and the list goes on.

lol and that alludes to how objective isn't so far apart from subjective, they are jsut two ways to view one idea.
lolol

duality is only created from one connected idea.
(part one of handbooks videos explain this for those who are really lost)
subjective/objective
material/non-material

There must be something to perceive, though. Yes, our interpretation of things is limited, that's not the point. To say the world consists of points of view is flawed. If we cannot understand the world (or reality, whatever) completely, then we cannot say what the world is or isn't. "What does it mean to perceive?" is what I'm getting at.
