What in life is truly objective and not subjective?

That seems a very broad question, including sub-questions like what do you mean by life, what do you mean by objective, what do you mean by subjective, ... If you posted your thoughts in relation to your question, we could understand better what you want to discuss.

It is said the powers that be once tried to isolate a man from everyone else... in the story the man couldn't cope with the distance and just died. I sorta believe that story so there is good reason for me to assume that other people do have an objective existance. I mean otherwise what is with such a desparate outlook as being so attached as to die without? What is the point?

Not that I'm inherently correct in any objective sense though, it is just what I currently think most likely to be true. Because after all it is me doing the thinking, after making certain observations that I can't help but classify as being totally subjective. But personally I believe if there is an objective reality you could only come to know it through subjective means anyway. At that point you have more of a relationship with it than an understanding of it though I suppose.

Beyond that I couldn't really speculate as to what might *really* be objectively real even though I do have a lot of ideas on the topic... having noticed that this whole place seems almost designed to defy all attempts at getting an accurate view of anything beyond what one is already predisposed to look for so it is silly to proclaim one really knows anything :smile:

-the physicality of it
I.E. space-time continuum, matter, energy, change of things
-the process of its (ongoing) creation

Basically what is subjective is YOUR experience of it.

Well, this is because as I meant it in the entirely general meaning.
By subjective I mean something determined by one's own perception and even created as a consequence by the state of mind / disposition.
What is not changeable in the broad universe, no matter what?
Where is the fine line between the two things - the subjective experience of the Self and what there really is, especially if there is nothing outside the Self; even if by Self we mean God's Consciousness.

In my opinion ...

Everything you perceive with your five senses is subjective. All the knowledge you get through your five senses is subjective too.

Objective is what you get from your inner source of knowledge, only as much as you don't distort it with your beliefs and expectations.

There is no fine line. It's a clear cut.

With each level you go deeper inwards, the same thing repeats: what you create is subjective, the next level is objective to you.

The whole self is multidimensional, and you identify with its part your awareness focuses on.

I say nothing, silence.

So I ought to keep a large space of emptyness because every word I spent on discribing truly objective makes everything subjective.

I'd say ... "nothing" is overrated.

Nothing is impossible.
