Perceptive Dissonance

The problem with perception is that it destroys the binary of reality. The wall between the right and wrong is so subtly annihilated that eventually the man is not left with a choice but is stranded in the crowd of greys. Objectivity is slowly receding into a misnomer. It was believed that to attain a sense of objectivity the person involved should look at both the sides of the argument. But the question in front of us right now is: Are there are only two sides to look at? Each side will have so many facets, so many dimensions. Opening each door of every side leads to more locked doors and finally it will be established that objectivity is an orbital space. Heisenberg’s Principle of Uncertainty tells us that at any given moment of time we can be accurate about only one thing: Either the location of the electron or the speed of the electron. The more accurate we get of one factor, the less accurate does the measure of the other become. The more detailed we try to get about one of the factors, we start losing the reality of the other. We can never be truly objective, there will always be an inclination- small as it can ever be- but an inclination nonetheless. 

Just Because

Based on Heisenberg’s Principle of Uncertainty, the electron can only be predicted to be in an assumed space: This is the sphere and the electron can be found anywhere within that sphere. Objectivity is also found in that sphere. Most of us understand that objectivity can be found in a sphere and its position can vary based on the point of view of the observer. But what has been lost on us is that the size and position of the sphere is dynamic. So here is the electron, inside the sphere, but where the hell is the sphere? Makes Heisenberg churn in his grave. So, position of the sphere is dynamic, sure. What about its size? How can that be dynamic? The closer one becomes to objectivity the larger is the size of the sphere. 

The confusion about the position of the objective truth becomes prominent as we get closer to the objective truth. The size of the sphere increases simply because we are closer to the factors and seeing things with our own eyes. It is easier to make a detached decision if we move a little away from the sphere. But as we keep moving away from the sphere the sphere becomes smaller. The smaller the sphere gets, we end up assuming that the truth lies in a smaller space and eventually, it will become a point in the graph of ‘greater scheme of things’ and now our objectivity is static and if we are lucky it will land in a space much closer to the dynamic center. But most of the times it will lie in a space skewed towards one side and there ends the existence of objectivity and all we are left with is an illusion.
