July 4, 2012 : Existence Is Determined by the Appropriate Stimulus

I wonder where that white heron is going. Everyone wonders what it feels like to fly in the air.
Actually, I know what it feels like. I have flown many times in my dreams.
You might say it's not a real experience, but for me it's almost real because I believe that existence is sensory perception.
We can feel because we have sensory organs that receive the appropriate stimulus that initiates the transformation into another form of energy that we perceive in our brain.
But if in different creatures that have different forms of transductions, they might sense it in different forms that we realize.
So I think existence is determined by how our sensory perception goes, so flying in another world means the same as flying here in this world.
