Hyper:
For example, your 2nd premise "2: Every mind strives to create its own perfect universe" conflicts with "5:"Reality" is generated from the combined perceptions of all entangled minds."
You are saying, as far as the premises go, that reality cannot emerge unless we have entangled minds. That is invalid.
cck:
You are taking them out of context to find fault. Since all 5 tenets are related, to understand any one you must consider them in relation to each other.
Poly-Solipsism
1: Every mind is a universe unto itself.
2: Every mind strives to create its own perfect universe.
3: The laws of that universe are solely governed by the perception of the mind.
4:These laws can be altered if the perception is altered.
5:"Reality" is generated from the combined perceptions of all entangled minds.
Therefore when you say "... your 2nd premise "2: Every mind strives to create its own perfect universe" conflicts with "5:"Reality" is generated from the combined perceptions of all entangled minds."
You are confusing what is perceived in one person's personal universe with what we all perceive in our shared Reality.
At first glance "What is Reality" looks pretty simple. Reality is what is "Real," but philosophers always seem to have a way of turning ‘simple' into the complex, so now we must ask what is "Real?"
If we look up "Real" in the dictionary we get a string of is's that boil down to: "Real" is what we perceive to be real. So for something to be "Real," it must be perceived.
Ok, that still seems simple enough, but now we must define "Perceive"!
It is when we try to define "Perception" that things start getting complex.
Perception: Consciousness, Awareness, Insight, Intuition.
We can find definitions for these and say we know what these are, but we do not know how they work, how we got them, or where they come from.
Without knowing the answers to these questions, we cannot know what is Real, and without knowing what is Real we cannot know what "Reality" is.
Poly-Solipsism is more than "many entities of knowing." It is more than the statement "We Exist" as a Multiplicity. It is in understanding ‘what we are' that leads to the answers to who, when, where, why and how we are Within its embrace lay the rational for our different perceptions of Realty.
It is in the realization that we are the essence of The Singularity, and that essence is pure, infinite and unbound consciousness, that we find the answer to "What is Reality."
All roads lead to The Singularity. The Singularity is the source of everything, and the source of all Truth. The Singularity is literally and figuratively "All There Is." The Singularity is Infinite and Unbound Consciousness.
It is in comprehending this one Truth: All is Consciousness, that tells us we, and all we perceive, and all of Reality, is a manifestation of consciousness and cannot be separated from the Consciousness of The Singularity.
Once we grasp the significance that there is only The Singularity, and all else is ‘woven' from its essence, and that every "I" in the "We" of Multiplicity is the essence and consciousness of The Singularity, we can understand what "Reality" really is.
There is only The Singularity. After that, there are only Choices in perceptions. After that, Reality is what you choose to Believe it is.
Reality is not what you consciously wish to believe. Reality is what you subconsciously really believe. To change Reality, we must change what we subconsciously really believe.
Poly-Solipsism tells us all truth is "personal perceptions," and all truth is only our own personal perceptions of truth seen from our own universe.
We exist as pure infinite and unbound consciousness, after that, all else is personal perceptions and personal beliefs.
