Direct Realism is a philosophical theory that asserts we perceive the world directly as it is, without any intermediary processes. According to this view, objects exist independently of our perception, and our senses provide us with accurate information about these objects. For example, when we see a tree, we are directly aware of the tree itself, not just an image or representation of it. This perspective contrasts with other theories, such as Indirect Realism, which suggests that we only perceive representations of objects, not the objects themselves. Direct Realism emphasizes the immediacy of our sensory experiences, arguing that our perceptions reflect the true nature of the external world.
