Standardize dispute. A good dispute is a comparison of the objective and subjective characteristics of the object and of the completeness of their mutual transition, not a clash of “my relative truth” with “yours.”
8) The Philosophy of Reality and the brain: the objective basis of the method
Cognition has a phase dynamics: accumulation of material → formation of an “analogue” → its interaction with the object; hence the lived experience of “growing understanding.”
The Philosophy of Reality affirms the natural (neurophysiological) basis of philosophizing as a function of switching brain modes.
9) Practical program
Where the Philosophy of Reality is directly useful today:
Quality of thinking: methodical testing of concepts for two-sided consistency.
Psychological work: separating experience from fact reduces fixation and obsessive loops of thought.
Health / everyday life: harmonizing modes of consciousness increases resilience and clarity of decisions.
Research and education: any subject becomes philosophical when viewed through the lens of mutual transition; at the same time PR does not replace particular sciences and does not encroach on their subject matter.
10) Relation to contemporary philosophies
The Philosophy of Reality is not “off to the side of” traditions, but their recomposition according to a working criterion:
it overcomes the diffuseness of postmodernism by restoring a single criterion of truth;
it unites the clarity of analytic philosophy with the depth of lived experience;
it resolves dualism and reductionism in the philosophy of mind through the method of two sides and their transition.
11) Criteria of quality and limits of applicability
Quality criterion: how fully and demonstrably the mutual transition of the sides is ensured for the given subject.
Limit of the method: wherever rational calculation or pure experience is sufficient on its own, philosophy is superfluous; the Philosophy of Reality is needed where the sides must be brought together.
12) Institutional steps
Course “The Basic Method of Philosophy”. Fundamental technique of distinguishing sides, building transitions, and two-sided verification.
Standards of argumentation. Fixing types of concepts (opinion / conjecture / conviction / truth) by a table of their correspondence to the sides.
Laboratories of “living concepts”. Practices of constructing and testing concepts as working processes.
Interdisciplinary hubs. Contact points of science, art, and technology as fields of application of the method without substituting their subject matters.
13) Call
The Philosophy of Reality is not just “one more” school, but a working way of thinking about any subject in which essence and existence continuously pass into one another.
Let us return to philosophy its subject – the regulation of the mutual transition of the sides of reality, its criterion of truth, and its practical usefulness for human beings and for culture.
