Satisfying Reality
Abstract
It is claimed elsewhere that the conscious states of humans must have evolved together with their biological states, and that an ongoing interaction between the two must have occurred to insure that they mirror one another in any species. A quantum mechanical mechanism and an evolutionary model for the assumed mind/body interaction are described in those papers. The present paper outlines the related ontological and epistemological assumptions, showing how the claimed connection between conscious states and physical states should be understood. Keywords: consciousness, Copenhagen, epistemology, form, Godel, matter, monism, objective reality, post modernism, psychology, subjective reality, TOE, undecidability, universals
