The Private Nature of Experience
Experience is private and individuals cannot fully know or understand the exact nature of another person's experience due to the concept of qualia. Qualia refers to the essence of an individual's experience, such as the perception of color or the interpretation of a scene. An example is given of two people looking at the Grand Canyon and experiencing a different perception of it when their experiences are switched. Each person's qualia is unique to their private experience.
