The Primacy of Perception

The Primacy of Perception is a concept suggesting that our understanding of reality is shaped primarily by our perceptions—what we see, hear, feel, and experience—rather than by objective facts alone. It emphasizes that individual interpretation influences how we interpret the world, meaning our perceptions create our personal reality. This idea highlights the importance of awareness that our views are subjective, and that different people might perceive the same situation differently, affecting how they respond and understand their environment.
