Epistemology is the branch of philosophy that explores the nature of knowledge, belief, and how we come to understand the world. For many, philosophical discussions can feel abstract or out of reach, but they don't have to be.
I believe that these concepts are deliberately obscured by academia and the media because of how personally empowering they are. Your epistemology is essential your mind's constitution, and if you're not even sure what your standards of belief are, your mind can't operate without delusions.
Das Epistemology is a framework meant to help you define your own beliefs in detail. I don't seek to make you believe any particular thing; I want you to shake the rigid beliefs that have already been forced upon you by others.
By thinking about and discussing how we think, we learn to think better. And if you let yourself believe in emergence, you'll find that your understanding that you feel in your heart and gut emerges from your individual beliefs in real time. Let's get to it.
The truth is everything that has happened, is happening, and could possibly happen.
As components of that reality, we can't possibly hope to develop any sort of complete and authoritative understanding of it.
Empiricism doesn't require us to dismiss ideas without putting any real effort into justifying claims.
In fact, science demands that we constantly re-test and re-examine every claim that it produces, as well as any new conjectures.
What we perceive isn't the consequence of directly witnessing reality.
We're conditioned over the course of our lives and adopt constructed frameworks that we use to perceive reality.
Our perception of truth emerges from these constructed beliefs
If you don't understand the construction of your perception from top to bottom that means someone else has been building your mind without your consent.
You must be able to audit your constructed understanding from top to bottom, or else it's not your understanding. Any one piece of information can change your behavio
The Constructed Belief Framework (CBF) helps you identify and articulate what you believe with precision.
By breaking complex perspectives down into their components, it offers a clear starting point for self-reflection and growth.
CBF allows you to interconnect individual beliefs allowing you to see relatively closed systems of emergent understanding.
By mapping these relationships, it reveals how your experiences and assumptions shape your worldview via paradigms- collections of related beliefs that depend on each other for validity.
As you learn to precisely experiment with beliefs, you may find that the emergent understanding that you perceive as your reality changes drastically with even the slightest change in component belief.
This holistically experimental science of experience provides profound insights that then can then be verified empirically.
