TFNR - Conclusions: a look into the future
To you, reader, who have had the strength and perseverance to reach this twelfth and final chapter, all my thanks and appreciation.
I hope I have succeeded in conveying the immense passion that has fueled me throughout this long journey of research, which began when, as a child, I dismantled things to uncover how they were made and how they worked.
I also hope to have effectively communicated my vision of Reality and how it works: a multilayered reality where each layer, though seemingly a separate world, becomes truly comprehensible and meaningful only when viewed as part of a cohesive whole.
A Reality in which an immense and infinite Process of Formation - both creative and evolutionary - unceasingly transmutes the possible into the actual, constructing increasingly complex forms from more elementary components / events, eventually leading to the boundless complexity of the evolving Universe.
As discussed in previous chapters many times, everything consists of "Entities that produce Events, organized by Relations in Processes". This endlessly recurring pattern, in an almost obsessive parallelism, generates the relentless Formation of Reality, both in the physical and cognitive domains of Nature.
In this final chapter, I offer a few more words about this work: its origins and development, its aims and intentions, potential lines of expansion, strategies for formalization, observations, and experiments. I include a concluding reflection on its ultimate purpose, its significance for our lives, and what knowledge and consciousness can signify for our individual and collective growth and well-being.
I know - I am about to reiterate, for the umpteenth time, concepts that have already been explored repeatedly and presented in various ways. I apologize for these frequent repetitions. In my partial defense, consider this: within these pages, I have sought to outline a novel system of knowledge, where key terms carry meanings often quite distinct from everyday language and, at times, significantly divergent from their usage in mainstream science.
Many of the new ideas illustrated in this work are counterintuitive or markedly different - even contrary - to those established in academic discourse. I could not assume anything as self-evident, and I felt it necessary to allow time, first for myself but above all for you, the reader, to become acquainted with this new language, this terminology, concepts, ideas, hypotheses, and proposals.
This includes a strategy of appropriate formalization, new observations, fresh experiments, and reexaminations of classical experiments, along with an exploration of the Process of Formation of Cognitive Reality and its dynamics.
Once more, I aim to provide succinct responses to two fundamental questions: Who are we? What are we?
Finally, I will delve into an aspect I regard as profoundly significant: the value of research and its potential impact on our lives and well-being, as human beings reflecting upon the Universe and the Reality of which we are an integral part.
And... What about Knowledge and Consciousness?
