Exploring the relationship between thoughts and physical reality, the book challenges the dualistic view prevalent in common philosophy. It argues that both consciousness and material objects share the same fundamental substance, termed "pure experience." The author addresses criticisms regarding affections—emotions and feelings that seem purely spiritual—by asserting that they are part of the same experiential fabric. This work builds on previous essays, aiming to deepen the understanding of consciousness and its connection to the physical world through a unified perspective.
