ANNOTATION: Global Mind Change: Consciousness as Causal Reality by Willis Harman, Ph.D. 1988
THREE METAPHYSICAL PERSPECTIVES
.M-1 MATERIALISTIC MONISM
(Matter giving rise to mind)
.M-2 DUALISM
(Matter plus mind)
.M-3 TRANSCENDENTAL MONISM
(Mind giving rise to matter)
> M-3 Mind or consciousness is primary, and
matter-energy arises in some sense out
of mind. The physical world is to the
greater mind as a dream image is to the
individual mind. Ultimately the reality
behind the phenomenal world is contacted,
not through the physical sense, but
through the deep intuition. Consciousness
is not the end-product of material
evolution, rather, consciousness was here
first!
