The Universe as a Rational Composition of Ideas
Year: 2026
Type: preprint
Abstract: This paper argues that the universe is best understood as a rational composition of compossible ideas—a structured system governed by consistency, relational dependence, and mathematical form—that provides the necessary framework to harbor an ineffable aesthetic and narrative depth beyond reason itself. Drawing on Leibniz’s concept of compossibility, James’s transmission theory of consciousness, and Tolkien’s notion of sub-creation, the author contends that human acts of creation in fiction and art mirror this cosmological structure on a smaller scale, positioning neurons not as originators of meaning but as tuned mediators that integrate primordial ideas into a harmoniously balanced reality.
