In God We Trust
In God We Trust, but lock your Car!
There are couple of Theories of Consciousness:
Direct Realism can be regarded as seeing is believing, where the Modern Science is heading at least in this time of the World without headlights. Straight to the tree trunk, it seems. It's just in this you take things on their face value. And that's the end of the story.
Quantum Mechanics describe it as a Car speeding on the road. And thats about it.
In-Direct Realism suggests when the Car travels on the road, it's size reduces along with other time and space factors. Like, the chicken cross the road, did the chicken cross the road or the road crossed the chicken? Now, you need to know the chicken as well as the road and the factors influencing both.
In Islam let's just say, if a stone is lying on the floor and you don't know the Science behind it. Then that stone is considered to be the Unseen. In order for a stone to be the stone, someone has to describe it and it has to be registered as something with qualities and properties. Biological, Physical, Technical, Carbonal, etc. etc.
Epiphenomenalism No one is mortal. You die, you're brain die, End of File. Utter Medical Science.
Idealism can also be described as if your drinking let's just settle for coffee here. You are drinking coffee but the birds in your Mind are hopping around places. But your focus is absolutely on the, well.... caffeine. And the qualities it carries along with the cream and sweetener. And how the water became solvent is all part of Idealism. And the picture can expand till infinity.
You imagine the red tea your drinking is actually blueberry flavoured, and it has all the qualities of blueberries and it gives you manpower. You're done for the night.
In Islam you only pray "Farz" or can be called as the "Imagine" prayer. You program yourself to be living in the Dreamland, because the reality isn't real, just the imagination. And yes it's the best way to achieve Idealism, without messing around with Aqidah.
Now if your heading front all of this could be a well prescribed gibberish. And you might think of it as an object, or prolly not think at all. And still drink the same ole way. But keeping your mind focused on caffeine can get you through.
