The question of what defines a “reality” has been mulled over quite a lot in the last week of class/forum discussion. Something I mentioned in the class discussion was the fact that I think there is a universal reality shared among all of us that allows us to relate to each other on some level. This is a form of reality that none of us really know for sure about… instead we all recognize similarities among us that constitute a definitive reality. However the reason why this reality is the universal one is only because we all instinctively need to relate to one another somehow. In truth, we each have our own individual interpretations of the world, allowing us our own elucidation of what exists in the confines of our personal reality. Thus, any reality is rather subjective, since our I-functions permit us to have these individual views of the world. The universal reality is thereby just the name that we associate with the given things we can all relate to with each other. I think this demonstrates that there can be no infinite truth because an infinitely true reality means everyone can relate and appreciate a certain fact. However, this ideal is rare, and seems to point to the fact that even if a majority of people believe in one idea, it does not instantly invalidate its reciprocal proposal at all.
