The starting point of the first manifestation of "pure rational consciousness" (idealism) is directly the affirmation of "pure rational consciousness" itself, and does not explore the "origin" of "pure rational consciousness".

Generally speaking, this kind of "theoretical system" is generally manifested as the existence of an "absolute consciousness" or "absolute master" outside the world.

Here, Siu Mai does not try to discuss the "authenticity" of these "theoretical systems", and Siu Mai is "not strong enough" to explore the "authenticity" of these systems!

The Roasted Wheat only focuses on whether they bring an "effective way" to every individual of the intelligent race to get rid of their "suffering"!

It is true that many people have found an "effective way" to solve their "sufferings", so Shaomai believes that the "pure rational consciousness" of this faction is "correct" and "rational".

The essence of this "rationality" is to let the parties reach the other side of the "distress"!

And on Earth, in the long history of mankind;

This faction occupies the longest period of history!

......

When I was in high school, I was still an ignorant teenager (of course, I was not a thin teenager, and I was already 90kg when I was in high school...... The fragile and sensitive heart of Roast Mai was struck by a passage, and Roast Mai recited this passage at that time and cherished it!

Sixteen or seventeen years have passed, and although it is impossible to recite this passage, for the description of idealism, Rotten Wheat believes that no language can surpass the height reached by this passage;

Today, Siu Mai shares this passage and pays tribute to the great Hugo:

"Oh!

"Ecclesiastes calls you Almighty, the Maccabees call you the Creator, Ephesians call you free, Baruch calls you great, the Psalms calls you wisdom and truth, John calls you light, Kings calls you God, Exodus calls you Lord, Leviticus calls you holy, Ezra calls you justice, Genesis calls you God, men call you Father, but Solomon calls you mercy, and that is the most beautiful of your names. (Excerpt from Les Misérables)

But today, when Shaomai wrote this passage here again, he couldn't help but recite it aloud in his living room, and at the same time, the shock in his heart was incomprehensible, both admiration for human wisdom and the memory of the sixteen years of time when Shaomai himself flew away.

This is "consciousness"!

This is "pure rational consciousness"!

This is the embodiment of the "inner" "self-awareness" of the siu mai.

In the eyes of the world, Roasted Wheat is a very ordinary and ordinary person from a distance, and a very unusual and strange person from a close distance: no money, not handsome, sloppy and fat, two gods in the house, and medicine cannot be stopped;

But Shomai thinks that Shomai's heart is very strong, because, at least, Shomai has found his own "pure rational consciousness"!

Of course, if the daughter-in-law heard the lady reciting this passage aloud, she would say, "What are you talking about?...... It's time to take your medicine!"

......

The "immanent" and "purely rational consciousness" of each person itself carries an "infiniteness", how can it be understood by others?

The sad thing is that the prosperity of entertainment in modern society, coupled with the fast-paced life, has caused most people's attention to be attracted by the bizarre appearance, and there is no time to take care of these "inside"!

Of course, most people with depression think about and touch these "inside", but they don't find their own "pure rational consciousness"!

......

Returning to our topic, let's talk about the second type of "pure rational consciousness": metaphysical materialism.

"Pure rational consciousness" attempts to reach the other side of "suffering", and it strengthens the means of "refinement" and "analysis" of the entire external world of "consciousness" perception, and then derives complex cognitive means, including:

rational observation, refinement of laws and characteristics, experimental verification (at this time, the "experiment" of "science" appeared), the intrinsic connection and infinite subdivision of matter;

When the various "sciences" produced by "pure rational consciousness" can explain almost all the problems of matter (molecules, atoms), elements, forces (gravitational force, electromagnetism), biology, and neurology in the world, "pure rational consciousness" suppresses its own "consciousness" attribute and enhances its own "rational" attribute, which argues:

"Life" is nothing but an "accidental" "rationality" in nature!

And "life" happens to be the "external" of "consciousness"!

In this way, the "pure rational consciousness" formed a second faction: metaphysical materialism.

The word "metaphysical" comes from the Book of Changes: the metaphysical is the way, and the metaphysical is the instrument;

However, Siu Mai actually prefers another name for this faction: mechanical materialism;

Although mechanical materialism may sound demeaning to this faction, it has been impossible for many years to understand the meaning of the word "metaphysics":

I have to admire the wisdom of my Chinese ancestors, and I am ashamed of burning wheat!

......

Metaphysical materialism has also blossomed throughout history, such as:

1. Materialist empiricism: induction is a method of exploring nature, and "experience" is the experience that has been sorted out by induction, which is like a candle that can illuminate the path of experience. That is, to know the whole world. (Bacon)

2. All objects are moving according to the necessary law of cause and effect. (Hobbs)

3. Life is a chemical machine. (Mono)

4. Nature is the sum total of all material perceptual tangible things, the only objective reality, the entity that is "not generated, not created", and the eternal entity. The existence and change of nature begins with its own causes. Time and space are the forms of existence of things in nature. There is a pattern of development and change in the natural world. Matter is the first nature, consciousness is second, matter determines consciousness, and consciousness is the reflection of matter.

Man is based on the natural world, and man and nature are an inseparable material unity. Man is a product of the natural world and a part of the natural world, and the human mind is connected with the natural world with the natural world by virtue of the body and thinking, and the understanding of the natural world by the essence of human beings is actually just the natural world itself knowing itself, so it is completely possible.

Man is a unity of soul and body, mind and being, based on the body (body). The brain is the body, the soul is inseparable from the brain, and you can't think without brain activity.

The absolute essence of human beings is reason, will and heart, the so-called reason is the power of thinking-the light of knowledge, the so-called will is the power of will-the energy of character, and the so-called heart is the power of the heart - love. Philosophy, on the other hand, is the knowledge of the things that exist, and what is the nature of things, how we must think about them, how to know them. (Feuerbach) PS: This is the pinnacle of metaphysical materialism!
