Key Notes
Hegel's term, used by Jiang as one name for the universe; glossed through ghost, gist, and geyser as underlying presence, essence, and eruptive becoming.
Hegel's name, in Jiang's synthesis, for the noumenal universe as a field of vibrations received by the right brain.
Hegel's spirit-world source that Jiang uses to solve Kant's three problems.
He presents Hegel's Geist as the spirit or shared force that gives space and time, responds to human action, and lets multiple people inhabit the same reality.
Powerful memories stored in the Geist can give rise to new consciousnesses such as gods; older gods name deeper forces like honor, justice, fate, and destiny.
Jiang uses Geist as a name for the universe and glosses it through ghost, gist, and geyser: underlying presence, essence, and eruptive becoming.
Jiang treats Hegel's Geist, Jung's collective unconscious, Plato's forms and ideals, and Christian heaven as different names for the same universe.
Jiang adopts a bicameral/right-left brain model in which the right hemisphere receives vibrations or the noumenal universe and the left hemisphere translates them into everyday reality.
He uses Hegel's Geist as the answer: the noumenon is spirit world, time and space come from one source, and shared reality is possible because the same source structures experience.
Hegel's Geist is introduced as the answer to Kant's three problems: what reality is, who gives humans filters, and how people perceive the same world.
Jiang says Geist answers Kant's problems by making the real world spiritual rather than material, giving humans filters, and aligning human perceptions through a shared source.
