Whew!!! I think this whole discussion is exhausting. I know that my seeing along with all my other sensing is at least partially shaped by learned concepts. I certainly see beauty that someone else thinks is ugly and vice versa. And tastes are certainly highly variable from one individual to the next. How could I possibly know if the reality that I experienced was beyond a concept. I know that I have experiences that other people consider to be crazy or my imagination. So my experiences were beyond their ability to conceive what I conceive. I have no idea how to differentiate some sort of "pure" experience from " my thoughts".
