the light waves striking matter. It is im-
possible to claim that anything known
as “heat” exists in the absence of a con-
scious entity that perceives it.
Some photons have frequencies that
fall between the ultraviolet and the in-
frared. When these rays strike the retinal layer at the back of your
eyes, they are converted into an electrical signal by the cells there.
Thus we perceive photons, which are all in fact physical particles,
as “light.” If the cells in our eyes perceived photons as “heat” par-
ticles, then we would have no such concepts as light, color, or dark-
ness; and when we looked at physical objects, we would merely
feel whether they were “hot” or “cold.” The way the outside world
appears to us depends on the way our senses perceive it. There is
actually no light or heat there, in objective terms.
We are surrounded by particles of different frequencies and
wavelengths. Only the perception centers in our brains make these
“visible” and “detectable” for us.

In essence, there
are no heat and
light outside. The
perception center
in the brain con-
verts particles
traveling at dif-
ferent frequen-
cies into a visible
and perceptible
form.
