Viewpoints and Theories

The Galaxy-like & Gradient Correspondence. Epistemological theory

Hamid Rajaei's epistemological theory (In brief) is concerned to explain the situation and circumstance of gathered concepts in our knowledge basket (through the sense, wisdom, experience, justified documents & texts, and revelation etc.) But for understanding, the theory, passing some introductions are needed:^[15][16]

1.Reality is how all that exists actually is. But he believes, the reality is reported at least, in two epistemological reports. The first is the reality itself, in an absolute kind and considerationو in its simplicity. The second is what totally appears to us. The first is consistent and needs no unifying. The second is just like the first type (reported & enclosed) but because of being after our considerable experiences of dealing with them, we report it as a streaky, prolix and flaky sentences. There are another consideration for reality, that we close our eyes, with no trying to have a sense, we image reality and try not to consider any of consistence and even not being streaky. This is in an absolute light fill or dark full area, and pure objective existence, as we prefer not to think about it or enclose it widely. We leave it THERE.

2.Knowledge and Gradient Correspondence As it is well-known: True, Justified, Belief; appears in two levels:

• When I think.

• When we think.

The first deals with more private and personal conception and confirmation here. When I believe a true in my cognitive system (sense, wisdom, experience and heart etc.) And justified it with my own justification utilities, there is a none published True Justified Belief, and an unofficial kind. The second is a shared, enclosed and close to academic argumentation. These two, are concerned by epistemology, both. Because the basic rules, at least in the maim logic, are similar and almost are the same. (In Rajaei's theory)

The most important inquiry in epistemology is: How much correspondences maybe supplied within propositions and the ways they born in my or our mind? Correspondence here is the main concern. But he says there are two levels:

• Level one: True or not true? (Correspondence with no Gradation)

• Level two: How many, much true is supplied there? (Correspondence in Gradation)

The main idea in Rajaei's theory is Gradient Correspondence.

A bit of knowledge is when I or we believes something (sharable for when WE) and is able to prove it. But the question is the quantity and the level of possessing the reality reported. He consider the reality like a very very colossal and glorious sphere and the concept as a sticky disc-like attached to the sphere.(If the disc-like is severed the proposition is not true) Then, the quantity of the tag's surface is the exact example Gradient Correspondence.^[17][18] He believes the most important problem in knowledge is that we are not God! And any restriction and insufficiency in cognitive equipment and power is a serious threat for human knowledge.

3.The kinds of Concept There is a traditional division here: The images and preconceptions. Rajaei’s theory is based on the images and not preconceptions.(will be explained) He says: There are two kind images: some are simple and the other are complex and galaxy-like. The simples are the concept we basically involve when in common talking and commonplaces. Like when we ask somebody: “fetch me some water, please!” (When we want to drink it) But the prolixes (An expression Hamid Rajaei uses in his essays;^[19]) are crowded & maybe higgledy-pigged of propositions are in and around a subject, should be identified here.^[20] The prolixes are present, when we use the expression of water and aim or call, all or considerable details of a branch or chain of our knowledge. Like the concept of water in all or each course of chemistry, physiology, philosophy, cosmology, theosophy, uranography, etymology, climatology, ontology, etc. that make our total hydrology! A prolix is often in charge of replaying too many questions. Because that is its Raison D’être and sole. Then the prolixes concepts are the specialized & studied concepts are perused in some branches of knowledge.

What is the Galaxy-Like, theory?

In Rajaei’s theory,^[17] the prolixes are all, galaxy-like and are full of galaxy-like meaning. (Unlike the primitive and simple concepts) He himself has exemplified his anti-types often by the concept of "Water". Then he believes the concept of water includes too many concepts that each one is in the situation, the others, demand. Water as H2O, as a liquid, is the base of our life, its meaning in theosophy; the concepts in metaphysics, cosmology…all feeds hydrology. Each branch calls the needed proposition (These concepts are prolixes in creatolology, if paraphrased) but the concept of water is a very it's simple Usage. Like when we say "some water please!" when we want to drink. That Is a common meaning is used by the man in the street. But this common meaning is not the same as the simplified meaning as he explained.

Galaxies and supper Galaxies

Hamid Rajaei, believes the prolixes, in their galaxy shape are, in dialog and trade and traffic manner. The prolixes are like mirrors, shinning in each other. For example water is as if a small galaxy, the concept of liquid, life, considering the play of water, comparing the water and it’s chemical elements whit the other chemical elements, is exposed the other galaxies may be called supper galaxies

Stable and unstable concepts

It is very important to know that in Rajaei’s theory, he mainly doesn’t deal with the preconceptions. But his focus is on concepts, especially on prolixes make galaxies. Then he accepts too many preconceptions remain logically, stable with no conversion and reformation. Because being the concepts in galaxy-like shape never suggests a total or continues variation in all sections of human knowledge. We may believe a perception forever but see too many changes in whole galaxy and upper galaxies. Rajaei illuminating and solving this paradox, offer to study the sorts of variations in human knowledge precisely. The stability in perceptions depends on the stability of their proofs. But as the total complicated meaning are seriously in posed with the conversion, he says the galaxies are in continues change. Then he saves the theory of skepticism and relativity.

The sorts of changes, in human knowledge in Hamid's theory

Rajaei counts many kinds of possible changes in the galaxies. He accredits the numbers of the list is acquired with Extrapolating. Then he permits his list, to be added by some more sorts‏.‏ In the other hand, as the classified, possible changes, are based on a pragmatic aspect, then he permits to consolidate some to others too, especially when we understand their interpenetration to each other. Of course, he claims, the above consolidation is not easy. ‏Hamid Rajaei 's examples are considerably helpful to understand what he means:

‏1‏.Into opposite (Water is H2O2, Into: Water is not H2O2 but H2O‏(‏

2.‏Into being more Validity and more connection solidity between the details (The earth is a spherical shape. Into more validity, while the ships disappear from the top, looking from a beach) ‏ ‏

3.‏Into more weakness of connections between the details (The earth is a plane shape. Into less validity, while the ships disappear from the top, looking from beach)

‏3‏.Into an Additive and more details and flanks‏.‏ (The photosynthesis's concept, when we knew it was more complicated when we came to know the dilates more)

‏4‏.Into being pruned.(Sun is not alive, like us. Pruning the belief of aliveness from the concept, as a superstition or...)

‏5‏.Into being more probed and deep when comprehending (When the concept of electricity in ancient times, but now is understood very moor deeply)

‏6‏.Into find new configuration among the concepts (The concept of communication when we knew: not only human can communicate, but animals too)

‏7‏.Into finding a new similarity between or among (To become aware: the interactions in Sun and nuclear reactors are similar)

‏8‏.Into finding an dissimilarity (To become aware: the molecule interactions in freezing water and thermal expansion trend, is not similar with the other liquids)

9.‏Into some more perspective s (To become aware: The psychosomatic study is a new perspective in human studding, too)

10.‏Into more recount and repartition (To become aware: The sorts of microbes are more than well-known kinds)

‏11‏.From non-Self-conscious into Self-conscious (To become aware: very very awful shapes and things, are often dangerous: what was a week guesstimate through a physiognomic guess or aesthetics feel, goes into be accepted Self-consciously)

‏12‏.From prolixes into supper simplifier.( Any expression in scientific studies doe's so. And is makes a supper simplifier.^[16][17]

Creativity theory, The prolixes and the simplifiers

Rajaei has defined the creativity as a mind skill, equipping us to make any new idea in any area. Then creativity is essentially not a kind of knowledge or science but, it is a skill kind, may be improved through various methods.(Hamid Rajaei 2008)^[21][22] (An epistemological theory, the phases and contextual planning)

Hence, creativity is an almost steady ability to generate a new concept with no time, age, kind, manner, way, technics, advantage, efficacy and subject limitation and restriction. But only precisely, is related to novelty and recency. So it only identified by "generating recent or new concept". Whether seems so floppy and ineffective or very serious and polestar. Whether established on an existent concept made before, or some is fundamentally made up recently. Whether created and made up by mind power or made by mind ready-made material before (and assembled with a realizable bit difference) (Hamid Rajaei 2008)^[22] (Albeit in battlefield of philosophers)

This theory identifies the phases and contextual planning and is family with (his) epistemological theory (By Hamid Rajaei 2008)^[15] on creativity process, with no serious disagreement, the other theorized phases, considering them as material of analyzing. It maybe posed‏ as: ‏

1.Excitation with a serious emotion to create something.

‏Contextual planning:

Being under a kind of shock or mystique, a kind serious need, hard pressed or poverty, a kind of lovelorn; are necessary here: "nothing brings nothing.

2.Prolixes phase: Gathering Information.

Contextual planning:

Having wide study, a good memory and soul- mind buffer , being expert in the subject; are so good here.

3.High Prolixes phase: to do analyse & get extracts.

Contextual planning:

Having a brainstormful & open mind, to be able to combine lateral thinking and the logic and algorithmic kind, watching the parallelism and differentiates.

4.The I.G.C phase. Including 3 sub phases‏:‏

‏4/1‏.Homogenizing the prolixes.

4/2.Willy-nilly awaiting revelation.

4/3.Achieving the I.G.Cs (immature and glossy concept) The IGCs are very torchbearer, snappy, troublemaker rumbustious & tricky.

‏‏Contextual planning:

Having solitude, private, purification, fervent prayer, God love, loving the solution, or having a kind of pure love, etc. is very facilitative here.

5.Achieving simplifiers, letting the brain and mind have an interchange rest, & make or encounter the new simplifier.

6.Fertilizing the simplifiers, with "Orbiting around the issue in 360 degrees, horizontally and vertically" & hunting between simplifiers and prolixes.

‏‏Contextual planning:

Being aware of the kind and sorts of transition and interactions among) the concepts is the cane and template for fertilizing and making the concepts couple or uncouple and how to do with each other‏.‏ ‏ ‏ 7.Achieving the elementary and sophomoric new concepts.

‏‏Contextual planning:

Endure and maturity, fixity and flexibility in a mix of stability, jocularity, are very facilitative and troubleshooter here.

8.Exposing sophomoric concepts to more prolixes. (In fact, a sub process)

‏‏Contextual planning:

Being disinterested, Having universal connections and a work-group dictations, critical arguments and not to be in solitude and private etc.… is so useful but imperative here.

9.Getting the SH Concept (satisfactory harvest: till the next serious conflict)

‏‏Contextual planning:

Having an Idea of epistemology, psychology of epistemology, not being slack believe, sectarian, opinionated, especially to producing soft wares and pragmatic lookout for the hard wares made them, and avoiding credulous or incredulous too, are the main wardrobe of any one in the section.^[22] ‏However creativity is an intercourse and interaction of the brain and soul. The brain parts function has basic impress maybe known through the case studies and study of the characters and turnover of right or left hemisphere of brain.^[15][22]

Prolixes and Super simplifiers

Hamid Rajaei believes, when we indagate, any creativity stages (for ex. as Graham Wallas's model: preparation, incubation intimation illumination & Verification or Teresa Amabile's) we can draw out (especially in terms 2, 3, 4 & 5) that we extract the information with super simplifiers, as a natural process in our brain system and common habits. A super simplifier is a nutrient and luxurious image of a concept, made by the brain and mind. It makes them:

1.To release itself from the inconvenience caused with bushiness & density of information, extra calculating, extra nerve activation and force.(with mental-spiritual context)

2.To achieve a paradigmatic and concept, that is intact and spiritual. (With effusive spiritual context,) aiming to examine the unity & purity. In this position simplifiers go to play as a unifier.

Therefore, prolixes (verbal meaning: too many words and therefore boring^[23]) in his euphemism are complicated means or a galaxy of meaning (In accordance with his epistemological theory: The galaxies theory) entangles the cognitive system, so, considered "too many & boring ", by appropriately of the stage: being compacted therefore simplified)
