                  From the moment a person is born, he becomes subject to the
             steady indoctrination of the society. Part of this indoctrination, possibly
             the most persuasive, holds that reality is what the hands can touch and
             the eyes can see. This understanding, which is quite influential in the
             majority of the society, is carried without question from one generation
             to another.
                  But without being subjected to any indoctrination, a moment of
             objective thought would make one realize an astonishing fact:
                  Everything we confront from the moment we come into existence-
             human beings, animals, flowers, their colors, odors, fruits, tastes of
             fruits, planets, stars, mountains, stones, buildings, space-are percep-
             tions presented to us by our five senses. To further clarify this, it will
             help to examine the senses, the agents that provide us with information
             about the exterior world.

                  All of man's sensory faculties-sight, hearing, smell, taste and
             touch-function in the same way. Stimuli (lights, sounds, smells, tastes,
             textures) from objects in the external world are carried through nerves
             to the sensory centers in the brain. All these stimuli that reach the brain
             consist of electric signals. For example, during the process of vision,
             light rays (or photons) radiating from sources in the exterior world
