inimmism

Inimmism is a philosophical concept that explores the nature of existence and the subjective experience of reality. It proposes that the perceived universe is fundamentally a construct of consciousness, and that individual awareness plays a primary role in shaping what we understand as objective reality. The term itself is derived from "inim," a theoretical concept representing an individual conscious entity.

Proponents of inimmism suggest that without a perceiver, the universe as we know it would not exist. They argue that properties like color, sound, and even physical laws are not inherent qualities of the universe but are rather interpretations generated by the mind. Therefore, different conscious entities might experience or construct reality in fundamentally different ways. This does not necessarily imply solipsism, which posits that only one's own mind is sure to exist, but rather a shared, yet individually interpreted, reality.

The implications of inimmism extend to areas such as epistemology, ethics, and the understanding of consciousness itself. It raises questions about the limits of knowledge, the nature of truth, and the potential for intersubjective understanding. While not a widely established philosophical school, inimmism offers a unique perspective on the relationship between mind and matter, emphasizing the active role of consciousness in the creation and experience of existence.
