Dual Aspect Monism and the Participatory Universe of Eddington and Wheeler

Sir Arthur Eddington and John Archibald Wheeler. Two of the greatest scientific minds of the past hundred years agreed on the role of human mind in bringing physical reality into existence. Mind and matter both emerge from something deeper, more profound, more basic –– and underlying unity that is neither mind nor matter.

The eighth post in the series on dual aspect monism –– the idea that mind and matter are two aspects or manifestations of an underlying unity. These two great scientists agreed on the role of the mind in bringing physical matter into determinate existence therefore creating the world we experience.
