Ethnocentrism is the belief in the superiority of one’s own group. It’s a universal habit that ethnocentric individuals tend to compare and judge other cultural practices to be inferior. Ethnocentrism encourages the solidarity in groups; it creates the feeling of belonging and drives the individuals to build pride in the group. However, ethnocentrism hinders the understanding of the cooperation with other groups. With the sense of superiority, there is little incentive to interact with the inferior groups.

Since early philosophy, philosophers have been thinking that in addition to things of the senses, or as Kant refers to them, phenomena, there are also things of the understanding, or as Kant refers to them, noumena. Philosophers such as Plato have thought that things of the understanding are the most real. Plato referred to these as the Forms. Plato understood the things of the senses as mere images and shadows of the Forms, hence making them less real. Later philosophers, such as Kant, argues that philosophers like Plato admitted that by seeing things of the senses, such as shadows, there must also be things of the understanding. One cannot and does not know what this thing (noumenon or Form) is like in itself. The only thing one can know is what it looks like when we perceive through our senses to get experiences.

Deep in the nearby swamps of a peaceful village, it was believed that there lived some mysterious creatures with magical powers. The locals called them “the Nokshobli” meaning odd people.

It was a quiet day in Orient. It was early August in the year 420 A.D. All was still until a monster named Poultra attacked the city. It was about 4:13 in the afternoon. Nobody was prepared for the attack. The monster waddled and flew throughout the city breathing fire and eating things. It attacked the poor farm animals and demolished houses. There was terror throughout the city as Poultra wrecked the city. And just like that, 7 minutes later, it was over. Not many people got a good glimpse of Poultra. Some thought it was a chicken, some thought it was a dragon, some thought it was both. Nobody could agree on it, but one thing is for sure, they needed to prepare for another attack.

The definitions of perception have varied over time within the Nyaya school of thought. While the old school of Nyaya defines perception to sense-object contact, the newer Naiyayikas take quite a difference stance. The old school of Nyaya relies heavily on the etymological meaning of the word Pratyaksa (perception) which means the functioning of the sense organs in relation to its particular object (aksasyāksasya prativisayam urttih pratyaksam). They lay utmost emphasis to the idea of perception as being the knowledge arising due to sense-organ contact. They believe that this is fundamentally implied in the definition of the word pratyaksa. Thus, it follows that the sense may function in two ways in relation to a particular object. It may either bring itself in contact with the particular object, hence bringing about cognition of the object, or it may operate in a way that it brings about cognition of the object. In both cases the result is a judgement of the object.
