Dear Edwina, and Evgenii,

I was thinking a bit more. I just realized that when you say that my "approach 'might' have strong correlation with the Peircean approach" or "may not have", you probably meant the entire philosophy of Peirce. But I was limited to logical abduction. It was not my ambition, not in wildest dreams, to account for anything beyond that.

  So, here is my reply with this new insight:

First - what do YOU mean by 'mind'? If you mean only the human mind, then, this would immediately deviate from the Peircean meaning of 'mind' - which is far broader.

While developing the theory of practopoiesis, I only meant human and animal minds, and I also included artificial intelligence. I had not considered any possibility of other understanding of mind that extends to the organizing force of the entire universe.

If, by some miracle, my theory happens to apply (or not apply) to those extensions, this would be just a coincidence, as I definitely did not plan something like this.

Danko
