Matter as the Representation of Extended Mental Processes
The speaker emphasizes that matter, including all physical entities, is the external appearance of extended mental processes. These mental processes can either exist externally or internally within us. Matter is essentially how these mental processes appear when observed across a dissociative boundary. The speaker argues that there is no abrupt break in nature and that all matter is essentially the external manifestation of inner mentation. By focusing on mentation as the core element of nature, the speaker asserts that everything can be explained and understood. Ultimately, matter is simply a representation of these mental processes, similar to a virtual reality headset.
