🎙️ What If Most of What You See… Was Simply What You Were Trained to See?
In 1964, scientists raised kittens in two separate rooms:
One with only horizontal stripes
The other with only vertical stripes
When those kittens grew into adult cats, something fascinating happened:
One group could only perceive a horizontal world.
The other, only vertical.
Their brains had literally rewired to filter out everything but what they were exposed to.
🧠 We Are No Different
We’re born into the world as pure awareness —
No beliefs. No language. No form.
But from the moment we arrive, we are shaped:
This is a table.
This is your name.
This is who you are.
Through repetition, our brain begins filtering reality.
Not based on truth —
but based on what we’ve been taught to notice.
🌍 Perception Is Not Reality — It’s Framing
Your culture.
Your language.
Your emotional history.
Your memories.
All of it becomes the lens you look through.
And that lens limits what you can see.
So the question isn’t:
What’s real?
But rather:
What have I been trained to call real?
🔓 True Freedom Is Unlearning
Awareness is not about adding more information.
It’s about clearing the filters.
Let go of the labels.
Loosen the story.
Question the inherited framework.
Reality isn’t hidden.
It’s just buried under what you were taught to expect.
