Derek K. Nielsen's Dortia Series "Symbolism offers a depth of meaning that cannot otherwise be achieved. Eyes are a dynamic means of perception and yet are there really any other eyes in the universe? If so whose are they and can you really know who owns those eyes? Ultimately I am the only one in the universe. I challenge myself to prove that statement wrong. Someone once told me that telepathy and the communication between entities in that way proves another’s existence. I asked him how did he receive that telepathic communication? He said that it was there for him to receive just as a radio picks up a radio wave. I told him, but it was your faculties that created the communication as soon as you perceived it. He was puzzled at what I meant. I expounded by explaining that every thing we perceive is a creation of our own faculties. Take sight for instance. You aren’t really seeing light but your brains interpretation of light. He stopped and realized what I was saying and that he had lived his whole life with the assumption that the outside world was real, when really it was his own fabrication." - Nielsen
