      Perception may be thought of as the orientation of your internal state of mind.
      The common theory of perception is based on the philosophy that there is an external world that is real to which we react - however that is an Aristotlean (look him up you stupid lazy kids) dictatorship which is imposed on the masses who reside inside the educational system and have come wired up to it like humans wired up to the matrix.
      In reality, considering the state of perception it is perfectly possible to perceive virtually anything, and believe any construct or effect that arises from the actions which inevitably arise as consequences of those perceptions.
      In other words: what you believe, you become.
      It goes ever deeper than this, but you really do have to take the initiative and step outside of the box of your conventional thinking if you want to experience it for yourself.

        Peceptions are [subjective] [responses] to [certain] [external] [stimuli]. It is subjective because no 2 persons can perceive exactly the same perceptions.

          [Entitlement] to be wrong.
          Only those who use the word [perception] as a stance are those who fail to apply [skepticism]; unwilling to admit that they do not know.

              While our [sensory] receptors are constantly collecting information from the environment, it is ultimately how we [interpret] that information that affects how we interact with the world. Perception refers to the way sensory information is organized, interpreted, and consciously experienced. Perception involves both bottom-up and top-down [processing]. Bottom-up processing refers to the fact that perceptions are built from sensory input. On the other hand, how we interpret those sensations is influenced by our available knowledge, our experiences, and our thoughts. This is called top-down processing.
