5.Critical Realism :
The theory of critical realism is that the percept of the individual is neutral and the real object presented in experience is different from the percept. The datum in experience through the senses is different in quality and reality from the true object which is in the external universe. There is thus a dualism between the actual percept of the senses and the reality behind the sense-experience. There is what is called the universe of the subject and the universe independent of experience by the individual. Reality is not known through sense-experience. What is known is private to the individuals and what is there in fact in the universe is quite a different thing. Reality, therefore, cannot be known through means possessed by the individual. We are given an epistemological trinity and a metaphysical indeterminism. There are some who take this real as material in nature. That the metaphysical reality cannot be matter has already been shown.
6. Objective Idealism :
Objective idealism is an epistemological dualism, and it differs from critical realism in holding that the true object of experience is a Cosmic Mind or Universal Thought. This Universal Mind is independent of individual minds. Empirical perception is the form taken by subjective consciousness, but the reality behind this perception is the Universal Mind. The nature of the Universal Mind cannot be known through individual perception. Reality is different from appearance. It is necessary that the individual should expand its consciousness to universality in order that it may be enabled to experience Reality.
7. God, the Universe and the Individual : 1.
These considerations lead us to the problem of the relation of God, the universe and the individual. It must be remembered at the outset that all processes of reasoning proceed from experience-experience of the individual self. 'I am'-this experience does not require any other proof outside itself. It is self-evident. All proofs are the results of and developments from this indubitable fact. The consciousness of my existence as an individual at once brings into my notion the existence of other individuals in an external universe. 'I am' means 'you also are', i.e., 'the world also is'. The being of the world is the correlative of the existence of my individuality. There cannot be a subject without an object of experience. The world is the necessary implication of the individual.

NOTE :
1. THE SEMITIC RELIGIONS, DIFFER, FROM BHARATIYA SANATANA DHARMAM AND REJECT BY MERE IGNORANCE, AND ADAMENT OF REFUSAL TO ACCEPT THE REALITY AND THE TRUTH. THAT THE WHOLE UNIVERSE EXIST ON SANATANA DHARMAM ONLY.
2. THEY SHOULD READ THE PART-7 : GOD, THE UNIVERSE AND THE INDIVIDUAL, HERE SWAMIJI UNFOLDING THE TRUTH IN A BRILLIANT WAY, TO UNDERSTAND THIS BROADMINDEDNESS TO ACCEPT THE THE TRUE KNOWLEDGE.IS NECESSARY.
3. THIS IS ABSENT IN SEMITIC RELIGIONS, SO THEY FORCE RELIGIOUS CONVERSIONS BY HOOK OR CROOK, WHICH IS UNNECESSARY, AS RELIGION IS INDIVIDUAL CHOICE, AND DECIDE THE BEST ONE OPTION, ..... THAT IS SANATANA DHARMAM ONLY.
