Reality
Definition
Reality is a Process, an organized set of Events (what happens) produced by Entities (what exists), that from the Primary Source, the Fundamental Force and the Elementary Field couple, source of Existence and Essence/Form, leads to the Forms.
At the same time, Reality is the result of this same process, the evolving Universe.
Reality is, therefore, the unitary, creative and evolute Process which organizes the universal network of Events, through which the Force (the fundamental causal entity) expresses itself acting on the Field (the Acted, the precursor of space-time) producing Action, the set of Events.
This fundamental process is the Process of Formation of Reality, in which Operational agents incessantly carry out the formative (creative and evolutionary) work. The Fundamental Force, incessantly acting on the Elementary Field, produces the Elementary Action, from whose organization the Information is formed, and the Structures of Information and the Forms, that populate Reality, evolve.
Common definition
In philosophy, reality is the state of things as they actually exist, rather than as they may appear or might be imagined. In a wider definition, reality includes everything that is and has been, whether or not it is observable or comprehensible. A still more broad definition includes everything that has existed, exists, or will exist. The term reality means what actually exists, usually as opposed to what is imaginary or fictitious. Sometimes it is also opposed to the dream. This concept poses different questions both in science and in philosophy, relating to the ontological question of being. (Link to Wikipedia page: Reality).
Description
Reality is the everything. It includes the endless creative and evolutionary activity that incessantly construct the Universe, the temporal section of Reality that we call "present". Reality is the product of the "unitary" Process of Formation of Reality, whose emerging product, the Universe, incessantly evolves towards increasing levels of complexity, of the organization of Information.
The condition/property of existence refers not only to the material forms, but also to the immaterial forms that characterize the internal and external organization of living beings. In particular, we make reference to the set of relationships that build ecosystems, to the complex information that constitutes the instinctual, cultural, economic, psychological and social aspects of living beings, up to the thought and the peculiar creations of the human mind.
Reality is the whole. It includes the infinite creative and evolutionary activity that constantly builds up the Universe, the incessantly evolves towards increasing levels of complexity, of organization of the Information..
Reality has no sense or finality other than the manifestation of the Primary Source itself in every possible Forms.
Reality shows no limits in the causal, spatial and temporal dimensions; it includes every event, every form, everything that exists, has existed and will exist:
- the past, as the set of causes that act,
- the present, as the Universe in evolution,
- the future, as a set of potentialities, the 'possible causal adjacent', subject to the incessant exploration by the co-evolutives (cooperative and competitive) processes that build up the Universe.
With respect to the considered domain of Reality, we can identify the following:
- Physical Reality (the physical side of Existence studied by Evolutionary Physics)
- Metareality (the cognitive side of Reality studied by Evolutionary Metaphysics)
- Meta-metareality (the meta-cognitive aspects, a cognitive being that reflects on the cognition, on thinking, studied by Evolutionary Meta-metaphysics
This distinction between Physical Reality, Metareality and Meta-metareality has an exclusively descriptive value. Reality, as mentioned above, it is the result of a unitarian process in a causal, spatial and temporal sense.
