Esse est Percipi
“To Be Is To Be
    Perceived.”
LIFE
 (12 March 1685 – 14 January
  1753)
 also known as Bishop
  Berkeley (Bishop of
  Cloyne)
 Idealist
 an Irish philosopher whose
  primary achievement was
  the advancement of a theory
  he called "immaterialism"
 This theory contends that individuals
 can only know directly sensations and
 ideas of objects, not abstractions such
 as "matter". The theory also contends
 that ideas are dependent upon being
 perceived by minds for their very
 existence, a belief that became
 immortalized in the dictum, "esse est
 percipi" ("to be is to be perceived")
 His earliest publication was on
  mathematics, but the first that brought him
  notice was his Essay Towards a New Theory
  of Vision, first published in 1709.
 The next publication to appear was the
  Treatise Concerning the Principles of Human
  Knowledge in 1710, which was followed in
  1713 by Three Dialogues between Hylas and
  Philonous.
Objects and combination of such =
        ideas or sensations
Material substance do not exist
The analysis of sensible things
 yields nothing but sensible
 qualities
Minds are mental substances and
No sensible quality or collection of
 sensible qualities can exist without
 inhering in some substance.
 In order for an object
  to be perceived,
  there must be a mind
  to perceive it.
 We could not know
  directly those
  objects. All we can
  know is what our
  perceptions tell us.
Esse est Percipi
  To Be Is To Be Perceived


•Knowledge= Sensation
•Experience the World=
Mind
•No physical world = only
the mind

             inside
 Berkeley held that all properties of material objects exist
  only in our minds (to be is to be perceived). Since physical
  objects exist even when no one perceives them, then their
  objective existence (when no human mind perceives them)
  implies the God's existence, or, more precisely, existence of
  the God's mind, Berkeley argued.}
 Material substance do not exist
 The analysis of sensible things yields nothing but
  sensible qualities
 Minds are mental substances and
 No sensible quality or collection of sensible qualities
  can exist without inhering in some substance.
COUNTER ARGUMENTS
Verdical (True) Perception
Counter Intuitive
Question of God
