All of human cognition, including the formal, such as Geometric shapes, and Mathematics, can be reduced down to the simple binocular mammalian cognition.
Binary logic, and dualism is a product of this.
The organism’s eyes become the base, and the convergence point the tip of a triangle.
The tip is the point in space/time, the object/objective.
This is the First Level of Cognition, corresponding to Psychology’s First Level of Intentionality:
Consciousness - Subjectivity of the First Order ([size=85]Primitive Organism[/size]).
A Line
Then, from this, the organism imagines ([size=85]projects[/size]) himself on that point, and perceives itself perceiving.
The organism has made of itself a noetic point in space time.
This is the Second Level of Cognition, corresponding to Psychology’s Second Level of Intentionality: Self-Consciousness - Subjectivity of the Second Order ([size=85]Higher Organisms[/size]).
A Triangle
Then, the organism begins to imagine itself imagining itself imagine, a third party triangulating upon a point in space/time.
The two triangles side by side form a square, or a rectangle.
This is the Third Level of Cognition, corresponding to Psychology’s Third Level of Intentionality: Objectivity of the First Order ([size=85]Advanced Organism[/size]).
A Square
Then, the organism begins to imagine itself imagining itself imagine a third party triangulating upon a point in space/time, where all, including its own triangulation are part of a whole.
It has projected itself outside all triangulations.
The organism can only perceive outwards but now it imagines itself outside itself, in the Third Cognitive Level, and also behind itself, and beside itself ([size=85]around itself[/size]), creating a noetic circle encircling a noetic point encompassing all this triangles.
This is the Fourth Level of Cognition, corresponding to Psychology’s Fourth Level of Intentionality: Subjectivity of the Third Order ([size=85]Sophisticated Organism[/size]).
A Circle
Then, the organism begins to imagine itself imagining itself imagine a third party triangulating upon a point in space/time, where all, including its own triangulation are part of a whole, and it is above, looking down - it is twice removed.
It has projected itself outside all triangulations, and above this outside.
The organism can only perceive outwards but now it imagines itself outside itself, in the Third Cognitive Level, and also behind itself, and beside itself ([size=85]around itself[/size]), creating a noetic circle encircling a noetic point encompassing all this triangles.
This is the Fifth Level of Cognition, corresponding to Psychology’s Fifth Level of Intentionality: Objectivity of the First Order ([size=85]Hyper-Cognitive Organism[/size]).
A Cube/Prism/Sphere
This is where the conception of a whole takes place.
Then, the organism begins to imagine itself imagining itself imagine a third party triangulating upon a point in space/time, where all, including its own triangulation are part of a whole, and it is above, looking down - it is twice removed - but it is also perceiving itself looking down - it is thrice removed.
It has projected itself outside all triangulations, and above, and outside, this outside.
The organism can only perceive outwards but now it imagines itself outside itself, in the Third Cognitive Level, and also behind itself, and beside itself ([size=85]around itself[/size]), creating a noetic circle encircling a noetic point encompassing all this triangles, and it is detached from it all.
This is the Sixth Level of Cognition, corresponding to Psychology’s Sixth Level of Intentionality: Objectivity of the Second Order ([size=85]hyper-Sophisticated Organism[/size]).
