Summary/Abstract: The article deals with the issue of perception. In it I present Wittgenstein’s concept of “seeing as” and Bohm’s concept of thinking as a reflex. By pointing to the similarities and differences in their views, I am trying to pose the question of what makes our perception conditioned. Having assessed this fact, I then pose a question about the possibility of unconditioned perception. Thus, I will try to answer two questions: are there reasons why we should free ourselves from this type of perception (?), and whether and how it is possible at all (?).
