This, of course, makes perfect sense. There is nothing inherently painful in a stimulus that is produced by something whose molecules are moving at such a speed and manner that one would measure its temperature at, say, two hundred degrees Fahrenheit. That degree of heat is not “objectively” painful. It would be painful to us, to humans, however. Yet, one could easily imagine a species for which that particular vibrational rate would be within its tolerance range. The quality of pain ... the very existence of pain, even ... is relative to the perceiving organism, its species. It is determined by the species physiology, and in humans this determination is made for us during the journey of the neural firing through interior areas of the brain, far out of our conscious awareness. Let us take a more subtle example. There is nothing inherently comforting or even pleasurable in a caress — that is, the pattern of stimuli involving the moving of one particular organism’s surface against another’s, in a particular way. Those “particulars,” along with other aspects, are what go into defining caress by means of a complex communication among billions of neural cells and their components inside the brain.

Cultures Create Worlds In fact, ultimately our world is defined in the part of the person that stores cultural information — the cerebral cortex. What this is saying is that cultures create worlds. One’s view of the world, arrived at through the process of enculturation in a person’s development, is determined by one’s culture, by the knowledge and experiences one has had in interaction with one’s society. The experience of hearing a particular sound is not known to be that of hearing someone talking to us, until the cortex defines those sounds as words. Biology Creates Worlds However, notice that before any cultural interpretation, those “messages” have had a journey through areas of the brain that define them prior to or outside of culture. Before any stimuli are interpreted as words, for example, a part of us determines that they are sounds.

Elephants can hear infrasound, as low as one hertz; dolphins as high as one hundred-thousand hertz. Keep in mind that our range is approximately twenty hertz to twenty-thousand hertz. What of the abilities of echolocation that dolphins and bats have. For that matter, what do we make of the ability of fish and amphibious animals, including sharks, bees, dolphins, and platypuses, to sense electrical fields. This is called electroreception. With this sensory ability they are able to sense the electrical impulses of other animals. What is it like living in that world?

There Are an Infinite Number of Worlds It should be supremely clear by now, especially among those of us with a transcultural or anthropological familiarity — wherein we are made distinctly aware of the truth-shrouding nature of ethnocentrism — that any serious attempt at discerning truth is not compatible with any variety of self-serving or egocentric agenda, regardless how invisible it might be to us or how unconscious it might be held. And anthropocentrism — the idea that our species, alone, has the inside track, superior to all creation, on perceiving Reality — is such a self- aggrandizing notion. Thus, it is just as essential to throw off the overweening species- centric intellectual baggage of our Judeo-Christian tradition ... which posits “man” as the ruler over nature and as the summit of created species ... as it is essential to strive to drop our ethnocentric blinders. Indeed, making this attempt to view from a neutral, Archimedean, non-anthropocentric “window,” it follows logically that the probabilities are enormous that there are, in fact, other beings, unperceivable entities, unknown and unimaginable realities, and other and different senses ... and, yes, as one new physics proposition puts it, an infinite number of “worlds.” 1.

And to suppose that there is, in some magical- mystical sort of way, a kind of authentic, exact replication of the “out there” by our particular sensory apparatus is not only to state more than is conceivably possible to be stated ... and to reveal an adherence to a kind of “faith” that is more reminiscent of religion than true science ... it is also indisputably anthropocentric. For even our thus limited sensory apparatus informs us of other sentient creatures whose sensory systems are different than our own, indeed, vastly different in some cases. Even among the species that we perceive as having the major five senses as we do, we observe differences: An eagle sees farther and better; its vision is two to four times more acute than humans — certainly its world does not look like ours. A dog hears a much wider range of auditory waves — certainly its world does not sound like ours. The sense of smell in canines is particularly telling. What can we make of a species whose ability in that regard is one thousand to ten million times better than us humans. One thousand times better than ours at the low end. Using this ability they can even “see” back in time. They can detect for example who passed by a certain area the previous day, what direction they were moving, and other details.

Our Knowledge Is Biased Indeed, can we assume, in fairness, that our own senses are capable of perceiving all major aspects of “objective” reality, granting, even, if in limited or distorted fashion? By analogy, it would be ridiculous to suppose that an earthworm or an amoeba ... with apparently few, and more limited, senses ... “knows” of the existence of our species in any ways other than, if anything, a series of obstacles, changes in pressure or temperature, or, well, whatever it is that comprises an earthworm’s or amoeba’s “worldview.” Correspondingly, can we automatically assume that our particular number and set of senses, with their particular ranges, are the endpoint, the pinnacle of what is possible in terms of perceiving “world”? If a sixth, a seventh, an eighth, an nth number of “types” of senses were possible, how would we know of that possibility with our five? Would… 1. CREATING WORLDS Page 7

One can conceive of some biological organisms who would interpret such touching as a dire threat. Again, the interpretations of external stimuli are relative to the biological makeup of the perceiver and are decided upon outside of conscious awareness. The qualities of pleasure and all other experience, sensations, and feelings are relative to the perceiver, its biological makeup ... generally speaking, its species. Different perceivers, different perceived (experienced) realities. Our Knowledge Is Anthropocentric Our examples emphasize that prior to any cultural interpretation — which comes later, during that neural message’s continued journey and now through cortical areas of the brain — a “species” interpretation is made based upon the biological “hardware” of the organism.

Furthermore, keeping in mind that earthworm, we can assume, for the sake of argument, that it perceives a Homo sapiens as something earthwormo-centrically akin to pressure, an obstacle, or earthwormo- molecular vibrations, in other words, earthworm hot-or-coldness. That is how it might perceive us. Are there any among my readers who believe it would perceive us the way we do? I doubt it. Now, understanding that our senses are not omniscient either — they are limited — how would we perceive beings or entities that are outside of or not sufficiently perceived by our limited senses? Indeed, how would we even know of the existence of such other sentient beings — not to mention other even more unimaginable realities — who or which could hypothetically be outside of the range and/or number of our biologically unique senses?

One can conceive of some biological organisms who would interpret such touching as a dire threat. Again, the interpretations of external stimuli are relative to the biological makeup of the perceiver and are decided upon outside of conscious awareness. The qualities of pleasure and all other experience, sensations, and feelings are relative to the perceiver, its biological makeup ... generally speaking, its species. Different perceivers, different perceived (experienced) realities. Our Knowledge Is Anthropocentric Our examples emphasize that prior to any cultural interpretation — which comes later, during that neural message’s continued journey and now through cortical areas of the brain — a “species” interpretation is made based upon the biological “hardware” of the organism. That is to say that these “vibrational rates” of molecules — using once more the example of temperature — are not in and of themselves even “stimuli” except that certain neurons throughout the body, including… 1.

Amazingly, in addition to migratory animals like sea turtles, this includes fruit flies and even some forms of bacteria. Some snakes can detect infrared light. Bees can detect ultraviolet light. As for plants, you thought them dumb? What scientists have discovered is that, amazingly, some have a sensitivity to touch that is finer and more sophisticated as what we have with our fingers; that they communicate with each other, including about a possible threat from a new pest and overcrowding and other matters. They have hormones similar to our own. That not enough, they have vision, all of them. What is the world as experienced by a plant? On what basis do we say that our world is better or closer to apprehending reality than theirs? Furthermore, what of species whose senses, as nearly as we can determine with our own, are vastly different from ours, such as a mantis shrimp, which have sixteen different types of color receptive cones compared to our mere three. What of species with less in number than ours? What is the “world” of an earthworm like? What, that of an amoeba? Real world, please step forward.

That is to say that the organism does not detect the outside world through its senses, it determines the outside world through them. Or at least it interprets that outside world in a way that is determined by its biological makeup. Whatever is in Reality is being scanned, sorted through: In the process of our perceiving, our senses are picking through an infinity of possibilities of what could be detected to select what will be “sensed,” perceived. After that, it is concocted: What the senses have chosen out of everything possible is then determined in terms of its relation to the biology of the organism, meaning what species it is. Then it is interpreted: An understanding of the experience is arrived at which sees it in the context of the culture one is given by one’s society. A sensation does not discern anything initially, at the moment of sensing. The sensation is interpreted later. The organism does not even distinguish between pleasure and pain — to use one crude but useful example — until later. The pattern of neural firings created by any… I.

1. CREATING WORLDS Page 9 …assume that we are “God’s chosen species,” the summit of creation, and magically endowed with a one-in-nine-million — that is to say, one out of the approximate number of other known species, excluding bacteria — uniquely correct number of sensations and perfect accuracy of perception. We have no way of knowing even whether or not we are in the same “space” at the same “time” ... the quotation marks because space and time are sensorally determined in our species’ unique biological way ... as other unperceivable beings, even sentient ones — though with what senses, again, we do not know. There Are an Infinite Number of Worlds It should be supremely clear by now, especially among those of us with a transcultural or anthropological familiarity — wherein we are made distinctly aware of the truth-shrouding nature of ethnocentrism — that any serious attempt at discerning truth is not compatible with any variety of self-serving or egocentric agenda, regardless how invisible it might be to us or how unconscious it might be held. And anthropocentrism — the idea that our species, alone, has the inside track, superior to all creation, on perceiving Reality — is such a self- aggrandizing notion.
