In philosophy, psychology, and the cognitive sciences, perception is the process of attaining awareness or understanding of sensory information. It is a task far more complex than was imagined in the 1950s and 1960s, when it was predicted that building perceiving machines would take about a decade, a goal which is still very far from fruition. The word comes from the Latin words perceptio, percipio, and means "receiving, collecting, action of taking possession, apprehension with the mind or senses."
Perception is one of the oldest fields in psychology. The oldest quantitative law in psychology is the Weber-Fechner law, which quantifies the relationship between the intensity of physical stimuli and their perceptual effects. The study of perception gave rise to the Gestalt school of psychology, with its emphasis on holistic approach.
What one perceives is a result of interplays between past experiences, including one’s culture, and the interpretation of the perceived. If the percept does not have support in any of these perceptual bases it is unlikely to rise above perceptual threshold.

So.. everyone have an unique set of perceptions toward an issue, challenges, life meaning.
For example, there are 5 peoples witness a case of a Person A being attacking by Person B.
5 Peoples will have different interpretation and perception toward the case.
Person 1 : The Person B is so violence! He should go to Jail!
Person 2 : The Person A must be have owning Person B in Past Lives that's why he is being Attacked.
Person 3 : Quickly ran always as he fear of being attack.
Person 4 : Go to help Person A.
Person 5 : Go to help Person B.
So, There's nothing right or wrong, it just the perception and belief system of each person that accumulated from past experiences, and these past programming in our sub-conscious mind have a strong influences on our judgement, and Discernment.
By changing our perception, to positive one, that's what spirituality about.
