It believes that reality is fundamentally mental or spiritual in nature, instead of material or physical.

Science already know that our reality/material is just waves, something we feel solid is not actually solid, it just a force that prevent us to go deeper into the field.
Time is the same in quantum world, nothing looks like what we know previously.
It's mind blowing for me to know that and it's fascinating in term of science and technology, but still useless in term of social and economic solution.

03/09/2025 - 8:56 PMDoes idealism believe that everything we see cannot be as it is, but rather the way our mind perceives the reality? For example, does Idealism say that the table you see, with four legs, wood in material, strong and rigid, can't be believed to be the real table but rather a concept of it that the mind perceives
