You are not looking out at the world. You are looking at an image being generated internally and placed in front of you. The brain is the projector. Before anything appears in your experience, meaning has already been assigned what it is what it means whether it matters whether it’s possible or threatening. Perception is not input. It’s output. The eyes are the lens. They do not show reality. They filter it. Your eyes can only detect roughly 0.0035% of the electromagnetic spectrum. That means over 99.99% of what exists is already invisible to you. So even before belief enters the picture you are seeing a microscopic slice of reality. Then the lens narrows it further. Beliefs, emotions, memory, identity these act like internal filters deciding what gets through and what never reaches awareness at all. The world is the wall. Neutral. Passive. It does not choose the image. It simply reflects what is projected onto it. This is why changing the world rarely works. New places. New people. New situations. Same patterns. The wall changed. The projector did not. There is no external opponent. No reality resisting you. You were never reacting to the world. You were watching your own filtered output. When the projector changes the wall has no choice but to follow. That’s not philosophy. That’s the system.
