Now, I, Narukin, the author of this website, will ask you some questions that you may not have given much thought to before.
Q: Which of the following two claims do you think more accurately describes the world?
- A: The world exists, and so does I.
- B: I exist, and so does the world.
Please scroll down after you have thought about it.

In my opinion, probably,Two people, one extremely extroverted and the other extremely introverted.If there is
- Extremely extroverted type → The world exists, and I exist.
- Extremely introverted type → I exist first, and then the world.
They are likely to answer that way.
Introversion and extroversionPlease also refer to the following article for more information ↓
The worldviews of "extroverts" and "introverts"
- One of the characteristics of extroverted cognition isThe world precedes one's own existence = one is a part of the world." and
- One of the characteristics of introverted cognition isThe idea that I exist before the world = I exist, and then the world exists.」
That's why. (Although there are exceptions, I'm thinking very broadly here.) Their views of the world are diametrically opposed. Let's look at some conversation examples.
A conversation between an "extrovert" and an "introvert"
<extrovertとintrovertThe conversation started with a bit of a fight.

Think about other people for once.The world doesn't revolve around you.from.

No.I am the center of the worldThat's right.

No, you're not the center of the world. Even if you were to die tomorrow, the world would still turn. The world would continue to turn as if nothing had happened. That's true for everyone, no matter how important they are. Not even a president or the Pope.Even if you die tomorrow, the sun will still turn.And they acted as if nothing had happened.

No, that's wrong.

Why are they different?

When I die, the sun will disappear.Ta-da!

What do you mean!?

When I die, the sun will disappear.。

No, no,The sun will never disappear.Yeah. Whether you die or not, life will just continue as it has been every day. (What are you talking about...?)

"Your own sun" will disappearJan (whispering)

... (My own sun...?). (Realizing what he's trying to say) Then,From the perspective of space, humans are nothing but insignificant beings, yet you claim that even the universe is under your control!(A little irritated)

If I die, my "universe" will cease to exist, right?(whispering)
「If the world goes first" and"If I go first"of"Two types of cognitionI think you've started to grasp the difference between them.
Here, once againExtrovert vs. IntrovertLet's organize this.
- Extroverted; I exist because the universe exists.(←Because it's clear that the universe is within me and that I am a part of the universe.)
- Introvert; The universe exists because I exist.(←Because without myself, we "cannot" even perceive the universe.) *Since it is ourselves who are observing the universe, it can also be said that without ourselves, the universe would not exist.

If you think about it this way,Both sides seem to have valid points.。
Like thisDepending on the person”"Useful Truth"”The way they are categorized differs, and both Type E (extroverted) and Type I (introverted) are further divided.That's right. ”The "psychological function (cognitive function)" that discovers "useful truths"”This also creates differences. And,As we grow from children to adults, our psychological functions gradually diversify from person to person.The human heart is truly fascinating.
