The Phenomenal World

The Phenomenal World refers to all the experiences, sensations, and perceptions we directly encounter through our senses—what it feels like to see, hear, touch, and experience life moment to moment. It is the world as it appears to us from our perspective, shaped by our consciousness and biological senses. Unlike the underlying reality or the scientific explanation of how things work, the phenomenal world emphasizes the subjective experience—the way the world appears to our mind. It highlights the distinction between our personal perception and the objective reality that may exist beyond our immediate awareness.
