The main axis of the metaphysical dispute idealism-materialism, solution through synthesis

Featured Replies

below text is a part of my bigger work Philosophical research:

Cosmical modeling can refer to idealism and materialism. In the geocentric model, matter has a significant advantage over mind. The sun next to the Earth in this model has some significance. This model corresponds to materialism and realism with the addition of idealism. And in the heliocentric model, mind has a significant advantage over matter. A big advantage, because the Earth plays a certain, albeit small, role in this model. The Bishop G.Berkeley system, which was a Copernican revolution in philosophy is not fully compatible with the heliocentric model because it does not take into account the Earth orbiting the Sun. The heliocentric model corresponds to idealism with a slight admixture of materialism and realism, where the Sun represents the subject and the Earth the object. The heliocentric model is subordinate to the Galactic Model 2 (other than the model presented in my text New horizons in physics), in which all the stars in the galaxy (subjects) orbit a supermassive black hole at the center of the galaxy. Galactic Model 2 corresponds to the idealism and realism, where dominant is cosmical space (black hole) with the primeval body which was beginning of the cosmos (singularity inside the black hole).
It seems that the best solution to the materialism-idealism and realism-idealism problem is adoption of all three models, geocentric, heliocentric and galactic model 2 in my new positions of ideomaterialism and ideorealism. In the position of ideomaterialism, I assume a balance between mind and matter. They share reality in half. In the position of ideorealism, I assume a between mental existence and mentally independent existence. They share reality in half.
The eternal dispute between idealism and realism finds a solution in the synthesis of these positions, which is my ideomaterialism and ideorealism.
Microscopic phenomena are mental-material phenomena. They are in half mental processes and therefore depend on the mind of the observer, as suggested by quantum mechanics.
It is worth noting that the concept of matter should be revised. The smallest particles are formed directly from space (a square microgrid of space of the order of 10^-65 m) then combine to form heavier matter. So matter is essentially space.
My theory of ideomaterialism and ideorealism is to some extent related to the concepts of Comte and Mach, who also sought a third way to idealism and materialism (above part of this pargraph is from year 2024).
The structure of the brain and its division into two equal hemispheres may provide some clues to the validity of the proposed concept. The structure of the brain may reflect the hidden structure of reality or impose on us the structure of the theory and the division of 50-50, half idealism and half materialism. However, the structure of the brain did not emerge from nowhere, it concerns its origin, its source, and therefore may reflect the hidden nature of reality (above part of this paragraph is from year 2025).
