Abstract

We appreciate the impact of how the mentality behind humans' cognitive inference methods and interpretation of perceived information on addressing the chaotic effects of the Anthropocene era. Our research, deeply influenced by Al-Rabbani's philosophy, explores the hypothesis that enhancing individual human awareness of the type of purpose (that they are pursuing) behind their semantic inference processes could serve as a critical intervention point to address the enormous, complex global challenges of the Anthropocene. The study proposes a potential framework for understanding human cognitive processes as systems of communicating living cells capable of learning and functioning as sentient entities. The study's concepts are not just influenced, but enriched by Al-Rabbani's philosophy, offering a novel perspective on the relationship between the human mind and the natural universe. We hypothesise the presence of a singular cognitive process (we view cognitive processes as living organisms) in the human intelligence system that rules over and uses all cognitive processes in the brain. We call it “Al-Fitrah” or “the Sentient Sole Cognitive Organism”. By exploring the interaction of these cognitive organisms with inferred meanings, the model aims to uncover methods that can optimise decision-making and foster global harmony. Part of this hypothesis is supported by the extensive literature on societal influence, personal perception, cognitive frameworks, mental models, predictive thinking, and metacognitive methods.
