Dialectically scanning all possible options, evaluating the thesis that all ideas are born at the intersection of the internal model of the mind with the external – real world, one might argue:
Let’s say a science fiction writer comes up with idea of another planet where instead of complex life there is a one big reasonable ocean. Such a thing does not exist in reality as we might know. But there are initial prototypes – intelligence, life, and ocean, these beginnings were laid at the start, and when the writer felt the necessity to synthesize this mixture from the previously absorbed experience; and it came into contact with reality. Reality still serves as the foundation for this concept.
If we isolate the mind from external influences, what thoughts could it generate? Emptiness, introspection?
What could be pure reason’s speculations within itself? Synthesizing concepts, but from what? All of them still emerge as re-actions.
But what is that necessity? It seems that it is simply the movement of the mind as it is, in other words, when the waves move – they move; everything moves and if it moves – it somehow changes, and therefore is subjected to influence and influences. When the mind is strong, its movements reach far.
A hypothetical super-mind in a vacuum? What would the mind be without the experience, reality, and stability of its own world model? Perhaps a better starting point is to consider what lies beyond – the energy and space.
