What is reality really?

He even talks about Santa Claus.

Speak of which, you mentioned earlier that Peugeot uses Santa as an example of a transpersonal agency.

Could you break that down a bit more for our listeners?

So even if there's no jolly old elf in the flesh, Santa still has real world impact because of the meaning we give him.

This goes back to what we were talking about before, how we're not limited to just our physical bodies.

Paju says we have these subtle bodies working through meaning and influence.

So it's not just physical things making an impact.

Pagot's saying ideas, stories, even institutions, they have real existence and can be powerful forces in the world.

This is where Paju gets really trippy.

He's asking us to think about a layer of reality that goes beyond the material stuff.

Okay, I'm hooked.

How does this cognitive theory of everything actually play out in our daily lives?

Right, that formal cause is like the blueprint for a thing.

So if a hammer breaks, it's sinning because it's not fulfilling its hammer-y destiny.

So how's this work for us humans?

That's a big question.

Makes you realize that even small choices can have ripple effects.

We can either add to the harmony of the world or, you know, mess it up a bit.

Wow, this is deep stuff.
