Perception.

Perhaps, one wants to be free from the thralldom of perception. When one is in conflict, perhaps, he does not want to perceive in the normal manner. Perhaps, he/she wants to accept perception, then. How is a person opinionated about perception? How does a man become opinionated about perception? Is our opinion about perception, as colorful as we make it out to be, or are we seeing the personal, in what is very impersonal? I mean to infer, that however personally we take our perceptions, are they impersonal? And, are we expressing being impersonal, by being personal? We are very sentimental, about some perceptions. Are these sentiments, not impersonal, but we see them as personal? How do we form perception? How can we be free from perception, when we want to be? Is it possible to be free from perception? If not, then how do we instinctively, and intuitively, try? The trying is as instinctive, and as intuitive, as drinking water, or eating. Then what stops us? Perhaps, the perception, and it's opposite perception, work, one after the other. When we are drinking water, we are aware of the drinking of water, and also of the effect, of the drinking of water, consecutively. To be free of the perception of drinking the water, we have to be free of the perception of the effect of the drinking of the water. When we drink the water, we feel pleasure because our thirst is being affirmed, when we are quenching it. After we end drinking the water, we may feel a bit low, because we are now negating the thirst. We may feel low, because we are thirsty, no more. First, we want to feel thirsty, then we do not want, not to feel thirsty. So, ultimately, all the time, we want the same thing. Then, how do we perceive the difference in our perceptions, when we perceive, the same thing all the time?
