Abstract

The article explores the nature of reality and the different perspectives scientists have on it. It discusses two ways of thinking about reality: physically emergent hierarchies and conceptually emergent hierarchies. These perspectives are increasingly intersecting, blurring the boundary between theories of reality and reality itself. The article suggests that thinking of reality as a circular structure resembling an Ouroboros can help resolve some of the dilemmas surrounding the nature of reality. It also emphasizes the importance of considering all levels of reality in order to fully understand it. [Extracted from the article]
