Reference: A Course on the Factors
KHTK Factor # 23: The actual universe is represented by the totality of postulates; and not by any single viewpoint.
The postulates are there to approximate the Unknowable. It is the totality of postulates that provides the approximation of the Unknowable. This we may call the universe.
Viewpoints are made up of postulates. There are many different viewpoints. None of those viewpoints provide the approximation of the Unknowable. But each provides an opinion what it might be. These opinions provide a distinct view of the universe.
A viewpoint may build upon its opinion to have its own “universe.” But such a personal universe is an altered version of the actual universe represented by the totality of postulates.

Compare the above to the following factor in Scientology.
Scientology Factor # 23. The universes, then, are three in number: the universe created by one viewpoint, the universe created by every other viewpoint, the universe created by the mutual action of viewpoints which is agreed to be upheld—the physical universe.
None of the above represents the actual universe; because the viewpoint themselves are part of the actual universe.
