Nice one! It’s definitely worth a periodic setting out of ones ‘stall’. Trying to make sense of the vague and often conflicting ideas that populate our mental landscapes is tricky, but also a fun challenge.

To me, the prime question is whether one believes that ‘matter’ is fundamental, with ‘consciousness’ being a derivation of it, or the opposite; That consciousness is the ubiquitous ‘force’ and ‘physical matter’ proceeds out of that.

This is the original fork in the road; The path we gravitate towards informs our entire worldview.

One world is crystallized and set, with change coming about through matter manipulating matter. The other is more mutable; A place where the observer has agency.
