The Cogito: The Human Experience
It is hard for a person to put the human experience in
perspective. A person will describe his experiences as a human experience, so
will a community, and the experiences between two people and two communities
will differ immensely. And they will differ between two cultures by leaps and
bounds. To put it in a perspective, the human experience is a collective wisdom
of not one but many individuals, communities, and cultures, with every bit from
here-and-there. If someone asked you to put the human experience into words,
your account will be different than mine, than more-or-less anyone’s – it will
be heavily biased on a side you identify yourself with, whether that side is
religious, spiritual, natural or philosophical. To get a fair view of the human
experience, the perceiver needs to be a non-human. No intelligence has taken
birth – or has been found – that can put human experience in a perspective. Yet
some can, and we can more-or-less interpret it from them.
