Summary

[edit]
Description Infinite Intelligence projects its imagination, giving rise first to the primary world, then to the individual out of the primary, and then to the complete image world or completed percept - which combines primary and secondary in a single image. In other words, through the evolved form, the primary qualities come to be perceived as secondary qualities. The reason the primary are perceived the same way by everyone and the secondary slightly different (in relation to the form) has to do with the perspective from which that collection of properties is perceived and nothing to do with the object itself as has been previously believed. In other words primary qualities do not inhere in the object. Nor do secondary. For there is no independent object at all. Both sets of qualities inhere in the imagination. Primary qualities (like math and geometry) arise in the imagination of the primary subject. Secondary qualities (like color and sound) arise in the imagination of the secondary subject (which imagination of course is ironically included in the primary subject). This simple process then explains absolutely everything in the mundane universe - thought, language, mathematics, natural laws, solid objects, and self-awareness.
