This web site aims to set up a point of discussion in connection with a specific metaphysical hypothesis,
that initially I discovered independently, but as I learned
it is similar to a monist current of Hinduism
and to the monopsychism that Averroes dates back to Aristotle,
and this is why I proposed to call it "neomonopsychism".
In a modern form was recently proposed
by philosopher Daniel Kolak in his book "I Am You"
where he named it "Open Individualism".
It corresponds to the least invasive method possible,
allowing the mysteries of the "io" to integrate with a scientific vision of life,
without expecting in return any condition of adjustment to any kind of dogma
or the recognition of any transcendental authority or moral principle,
offering instead metaphysical support for what is called "layman’s ethics".
On this website I tried to explicit its innovative features,
describing them in an accessible way.
I have written several times different versions of my ideas,
trying each time to expose them more effectively,
adapting my argumentatins to the philosophical debate which I gradually became aware of.
This results in exposures of different types,
some of them are more simple but more naive,
other are more stringent but a little more complicated.
It may be helpful to begin by early drafts,
in order to understand more easily
the last ones that are more technical.
In each page is possible to send comments to suggest critics or details.
The comments are displayed with the sending person only if the corresponding option is checked,
and may be reported only for summary or note,
as it will be suggested for pratical pourposes.
If you find this idea interesting,
you can help to spread it around by informing your friends of this web site.
On Facebook there is an international discussion group
which is called "I Am You: Discussions on Open Individualism."
I definitely recommend signing up to whoever is interested.
