If, as some spiritualists say, we all create our own unique personal reality, then why is there so much overlapping commonality in what we see, smell, taste, hear and physically feel? Oh sure, there are different levels of pain, different shades of red, etc, but when 1 million people have their thumbs chopped off with a machete, I’ll assert that every single one of them will feel some level of pain and not ecstasy.

If there was no overlap in perception, we’d have nothing in common, right? We’d all be isolated and life wouldn’t be worth living, or would it? Am I taking this topic too literally? If you know the answer to my conundrum, please help me out here. Thanks.
