Evolution of willpower

(from post to JCS-online @ 2011-04-25)

I have now much clearer form of some ideas also expressed in my old letters, which I would not write here - these are not tries to convince a "non-believer" in existence of will, but rather to give a stronger base to those, who believe in existance of it.

If we consider that rough simplified form of psyche and all other matter is explained as such (I use the framework similar to one of Schopenhauer here):
  • Idea - any kind of cognitive experience, state of things, which is projected to cognition.
  • Will - any part of this state of things, which one seriously wants to be materialized, with this attribute of being a will.
So there is some image in mental projection; it consists of images, some of which we know to be materialized, some of which we want to be materialized and some of which we just consider or have there, the latter we can call dreams. We attribute beauty and achievableness to dreams to choose, which ones will get this new attribute to get wills - which ones attract our willpower.

We see that this experience we have about things materialized is very similar in conginitve structure to the ones we experienced as ideas for willpower, which are materialized now - materialization of will roughly means that there appears a very similar structure to the one, which was attributed as being a will, now attributed as being a material form. So the existence of will can be defined as ability to make our personal ideas, non-attached projections, into the ones, which are projected to us by reality itself. This means that those ideas actually "make sense" - and the will makes sense.

Now we can define an evolution of willpower: this is a tendency of survival of those entities, which more strongly materialize their will in given environment. As the ideas actually make sense, the will itself is a fundamental thing, which is just what it is - if there is a projection into mind of actual experience, the will is ability to create the new experience, which first appears as projected outside-direction and then, in very similar form, as projected from outside to inside. What makes this fundamental is the connection - the materialized form is essentially the same thing, what was initially projected, and the connection itself was meaningful in sense that we actually experienced it as something to become reality.

So, the evolution of will, if there is a lots of often conflicting will in this world, makes up the evolution of all things:
  • There is a tendency to survive for things, which can actually create their inner projection into real projection (get some support from external world to project certain things to their mental eye) - so from all matter, in which the experience could be fully random and unrelated to actual state of matters; where an engineer could use those forms of matter we experience as will as compounds, which would have different function that making those things into reality, the reality itself - or evolution - has still made those cognitive compounds to be precisely what they feel.
  • The survival is affected by conflicting will - thus, complete survival is possible for forms, which do not attract wills in opposite directions, their will must synergize by other wills so that the actual change in reality allows all sides to see precisely the projections they want; thus, either the dream of experiencer must change to fit the big dream or the big dream must change.
  • As will starts from dreams and it takes least amount of energy to synergize it on dream level, the survival is stronger for beings, which can communicate their dreams - before they get to wills or more importantly before they start materializing - and play their dreams out in believable ways, so that they know, where each dream actually leads, when they try to materialize it.
  • This means that the forms of matter, which can make up big dreams together, share parts/roles of their big dreams and then dream about their roles and big dreams together in such way that those big dreams fit perfectly into bigger will they can't change, will survive.
  • My point: this is fundamental law, not some human-centric social law.
