How Language Shapes Our Perception

A man says he was moved by the animation of Rupert's new book, 'I Am Always I' and would like to translate it to Turkish. He speaks of the difficulty of translating these ideas, and how language shapes our perception of the world. Rupert responds that language abstracts parts from the whole and we look at reality through those names, as if they're really as they appear. We look at reality through the lens of perception and conception, but we forget, and think we're seeing clearly. We believe we are experiencing discrete objects, yet they've been abstracted by thought and perception.
