What are two ways of perceiving the world?

Answer 1

There are three:

1. Neurotics build castles in the sky.
2. Psychotics live in castles in the sky.
3. Psychologists collect the rent.

Seriously, there are countless ways to perceive the world. In truth, there are over 6 billion perceptions of the world currently in existence, one for every man, woman, and child.

Added:

This answer is too relativistic in approach. Those 6 billion perceptions of the world are distributed along a continuum of perception that forms a normal curve. For example. Most men would find Julia Roberts attractive. About 70% would thin her very attractive and the rest of men would be thinking less attractive and be more toward the tails of the distribution. There would not be 3 billion opinions that had one contradicting the other. Most things are like this and to think that all perception is the reality is sadly mistaken. Reality may be a construct of the brain, but it is not an arbitrary construct.
