Objects are entirely indifferent to humans.

 Objects are entirely indifferent to humans. This becomes clear when detaching from the human perspective and attempting to see from the viewpoint of these inanimate things. Take a party, for example. Everyone is laughing, singing, and dancing. Yet the couches, chairs, tables, plates, glasses, forks, spoons, phones, televisions, walls, floors, and ceilings—all of these are alien and indifferent to the people there, even if an atmosphere of engagement and entertainment exists. This does not stand out much, because humans know very well how to deceive themselves. And because of that, the whole world appears full of life to ordinary eyes. Yet, in the dimension of all lifeless things, humans are not even ignored—they are nonexistent.
