The above-made conclusion that only consciousness exists is neither unique nor new. Many world-renowned philosophers and scientists have already expressed, in different ways, their opinions on this topic. Here are the words of an Indian physicist, better known as a philosopher and a yogi, Maharishi, which confirm this:

The united field of all natural laws is the foundation of the world. It is something immaterial, timeless, nonmanifested and inactive. It is great nothing that is the beginning and cause of everything. All exists in it, all big and small things, all worlds, all forms, all relations, but only as a principle, as an idea, as a latent possibility. It is pure consciousness. And when the part of that pure consciousness, even the smallest particle, separates out and becomes active, when itbecomes dynamic, it transforms into a concrete thing, into matter, into being, into universe. That nothing is completely aware of itself for it is pure consciousness. It has an enormous infinite power ofself-organization, for it is creative, for it is the united field of all abilities, of all possibilities. Its nature is perfection, coherence, harmony, bliss and all that appears out of it retains that property, remains bliss”.

I also remember when long ago I had read one of the books written by an American anthropologist Carlos Castaneda, there was a certain part in that book in which Don Juan, an old Indian sorcerer, explains that the world is divided into “tonal” and “nagual” and he then explains the difference between the two. He says that “tonal” and “nagual” are two halves of the world, that “tonal” is all that surrounds us, that which is visible and named. “Nagual”, the other half of the world, is utterly unlike the “tonal” world, it cannot be named, but it is still the one which makes everything and without which nothing would exist. It overwhelmingly reflects the division of the world into the universe as a consequence, and consciousness as its cause.

Of course, all world religions when speaking about the existence of God as the cause of the world obviously speak about the existence of consciousness. But it is not worth commenting on because different religions have different ideas of “God”. The only valuable religious standpoint is the one that says that God created the world out of nothing and that God can be found only within (ourselves). This points to the conclusion that it is all about consciousness, keeping in mind that consciousness is the thing that makes the world out of itself, which itself is (relatively) nothing, and that in ourselves we cannot find that anything else exists save consciousness.

I want to point out that the difference between my opinion and conclusion and the ones of the others, who state that only consciousness and its physical and psychological abilities exist, is only that I precisely list those abilities. This is necessary because it would not be possible to thoroughly understand the law of existence without the analysis of the causal-consequential relationship of physical and psychological actions which consciousness must alternately and eternally perform in order to maintain itself as it is. That is, it would not be possible to understand the answers to the other two very important existential questions which read: “How does consciousness exist?” and “Why does it exist?” which are important parts of the law of existence.
