[MD] NYC

[MarshaV]

Greetings,

Perhaps we have never been to NYC. We can study all about NYC, look at photographs, read the history, and learn a tremendous amount about NYC from books. Far more than the people who live and/or work in NYC know. We can be experts. But, when we board an airplane and fly to NYC, there is a great difference when we experience NYC with our eyes, our ears and other senses. Then we understand so much more, don't we? Because we have the direct experience of our senses and not just the mental image of NYC, even though the latter is correct.  Direct perception is to see things as they are, without changing them through our concepts.
