Summed up in experience

Reality

Term with which we refer, in a general way, to the set of what exists, in opposition to what we consider to be fictional, illusory, apparent, or merely possible.

The identification of reality with being, with what exists, lends itself to different interpretations, depending on the conceptions one has of being, which often depend on other metaphysical presuppositions. For some philosophers, reality transcends experience, and they speak of realities that are "beyond" experience, as could be the case of Plato, for example, while for others, like Kant, reality can only be conceived as given in experience.

When a philosophical problem becomes reality, we enter the field of one of the philosophical disciplines, metaphysics. It addresses the study of the Self, not as the sciences focusing on one aspect of it, but in its maximum generality. It is about determining the general characteristics of everything that exists, what is it that makes us consider it as real? A fundamental metaphysical question opens up here: to what extent is reality the fruit of the subject or is it independent of it? In other words, to what extent is reality a product of our mind? We will also analyze some of the fundamental problems of Western metaphysics that have traditionally revolved around three great objects: the self or soul (does existence have any meaning? Are we free?), The world as a whole (has it always existed? or did it have a beginning? Does the most rigid determinism reign in it or is it all the result of chance? Is it simple or composite ?, etc.) and God (does it exist? Is it possible to prove its existence? and what origin has to consider the existence of God?).

From science we question ourselves about the structure and functioning of the physical world. Throughout the history of science behind the answers that have been given underlie different general models of what may be nature (scientific worldviews) that have been happening and sometimes combining. The universe has been conceived as a great living being where each part has its function and a purpose determined by the whole; it has been understood, other times, as a great mathematical fractal where each part is a representation on a scale of the whole and where everything is crossed by magical forces and relationships; others, it has been thought of as a great machine where the tightly chained gears follow a precise order and a mathematically exact operation; for in our days to come to consider that the appearance of the world that surrounds us depends on our state of movement, that is, it is relative to this movement, and the very functioning of physical reality makes it impossible to simultaneously know the position and speed of a particle as stated in the indeterminacy principle of Heidelberg.
