Cognitive Realism

The position that our internal cognitive representations (concepts, schemas, mental models) accurately mirror the external world. Our minds are like maps that, while not perfect, are fundamentally aligned with the territory. Truth is about correspondence between thought and reality, and through reason and perception, we can progressively refine our maps to be more accurate.

Cognitive Realism believes that the concept of "tree" in your mind, while simplified, corresponds to an actual class of objects with shared properties (roots, trunk, leaves) that exist independently of you. Scientific models, like the heliocentric solar system, are triumphantly realistic maps that displaced less accurate ones (geocentrism). When you learn a new fact and update your belief, you're moving your cognitive map closer to reality.

Meta-Reality

The concept that what we perceive as base reality might itself be a construct, simulation, or narrative layer within a larger, truer reality. It’s the philosophical and sometimes psychedelic suspicion that we’re not at the bottom level of existence. This includes simulation theory, the idea that gods are themselves created, or that our universe is a thought in a meta-mind. It’s reality questioning its own reality, leading to a dizzying sense that everything, including the rules of physics, might be local software.

Example: "After his DMT trip, he couldn't stop talking about meta-reality. 'Our world is just the dream of a sleeping giant,' he'd say, 'and its alarm clock is the heat death of the universe. Also, the giant is allergic to peanuts, which is why they're deadly.' It made existential dread feel weirdly specific."

Cognitive Realism

The philosophical hypothesis that our perception of reality isn't a perfect mirror of the world, but a limited, processed construction built by our brains. It argues that our nervous systems act as a filter and an interpreter, shaping what we can see, hear, and understand. The "realism" part acknowledges an external world exists, but our access to it is always mediated by our cognitive machinery. This theory has a spectrum: a Weak Version (Cognitive Relativism) suggests our biology heavily influences our reality, while a Strong Version (Cognitive Determinism) argues it dictates and limits what reality can even be for us.

*Example: "Looking at a rainbow, Cognitive Realism kicks in. The rainbow 'out there' is just water droplets refracting white light. But my primate brain, equipped with only three types of color cones, constructs the bands of ROYGBIV. A mantis shrimp, with 16 color cones, would perceive a rainbow of unimaginable complexity. My reality isn't false, but it's a profoundly limited, biologically-determined sketch of what's actually there."*
