Meaning of Terms: Subjective versus Objective Experiences

A man queries about Rupert’s use of the terms ‘subjective and objective experience’. Rupert clarifies that others may define these terms differently. Generally, subjective experience refers to a first-person, private experience, while objective experience is our shared experience of the world. In Rupert’s terms, objective experience includes anything with form, such as thoughts, sensations, perceptions, feelings, actions, visions of God, a headache – anything that has a forms in time and space. Subjective experience, in his view, refers solely to awareness’s experience of itself, or the knowledge ‘I am’.
