UNO CONSCIENTE: Ontology and Reflexive Formalism

Is consciousness a product of the brain, or the foundation of reality itself?For more than two millennia, philosophy has sought to answer this question by starting from the opposition between mind and matter. Uno Consciente proposes a radical reversal: consciousness does not emerge from the Universe; the Universe emerges as an expression of an originally conscious reality.From this hypothesis, Lucio Marassi develops a unified philosophical architecture that reconnects ontology, epistemology, philosophy of mind, cosmology, mathematics, and ethics. Thinkers such as Plato, Plotinus, Spinoza, Leibniz, Kant, Hegel, Nietzsche, Whitehead, and Deleuze cease to appear as irreconcilable systems and instead reveal different approaches to the same fundamental question. More than proposing a new metaphysics, the work introduces the Reflexive Formalism - a mathematical structure developed across three scientific papers included in this volume. This formalism yields striking results: - The cosmological arrow of time is inverted. Instead of the Universe marching toward thermal death and disorder, it evolves through successive phases of increasing self-coherence and order. - Death is no longer the extinction of consciousness. The body functions as a localization kernel - a filter and focusing structure of the Primordial Consciousness Field. When the body ends, the field's coherence remains. - Ethics and karma are redefined on ontological grounds. Evil is fragmentation; good is the expansion of lucidity and coherence - with immediate structural consequences, not as mystical retribution. These are not speculative additions, but rigorous consequences of taking the primacy of consciousness seriously enough to formalize it. What emerges is a coherent vision in which cosmology, the nature of the self, and the meaning of action are no longer separate domains, but expressions of one and the same reflexive process. Uno Consciente invites the reader to reconsider one of the deepest questions in human thought: How does the Universe emerge from consciousness?
