Indeed, Tomer! It appears we’re seeing many of the same connections, albeit from different perspectives—but that’s really just a matter of using different language to describe the same phenomena, and doing so often leads to further insights. Thank you!
For me, there is real beauty in this revised metaphysical vision, integrating Whitehead’s process philosophy, Gendlin’s work, and Madhyamaka. It provides a framework that’s far from abstract and esoteric. Not surprisingly, this process-relational metaphysics has direct connections to the previous PCT/theosis article, as well as your work. I think it provides the philosophical structure for a renewed anthropology. What’re you’re pointing out in the co-dynamic/information exchange through Markov blankets is the same process-relational metaphysics we see playing out psychosomatically in the human person.
Fascinating Aaron, I too also was very interested in the Whitehead reconciliation exercise albeit with a different integration flavor!
This combined with the complexity work makes us very like-minded folks!
I tried to do a preliminary reconciliation between Whitehead and Markov blankets!
