Well if you do not need any substances at all, that includes
electrons, protons, neutrons,
neutrinos, dark matter and energy as well as particles of the mind. So
if any of these so-called substances have any existence at all, then I
bet that they all do, which is all I need for my

My opinion for what that is worth is that arithmetical dreams
describe what happens in heaven where whatever we think
becomes reality and if enough of us think the same thing
it becomes a video game we can play together.
My opinion is that inanimate physical things are more concrete

To say that a connection is based on logic is a category error.
More specifically,
I conjecture that the connection in the brain between the physical brain
and the (computational?) mind/monads is based on BEC

The experiencers are the monads and the physical neurons..
I conjure experiencers because I have experiences.
But it appears that two kinds of experiencers are necessary.
The BEC just connects them. I do not care what you call that.
Names are not important.

Neurons are made in accordance with physical laws.
You are confusing string theory with comp which apparently makes everything.
String theory monads are made in the big bang by having the excess
dimensions of the space of string theory curl up into 1000 planck
diameter particles that
