Abstract

The article examines the ontological views of Alexei Alexandrovich Kozlov, a prominent representative of Russian idealist philosophy. It emphasizes that the Russian philosopher transforms Gottfried Leibniz’s monadology in the spirit of a unique doctrine he refers to as “panpsychism”. A.A. Kozlov rejects the radical boundary between mind and matter, asserting that matter is merely a lower level of spirit. Moreover, the philosopher highlights that it is impossible to conceive of actions without an actor and delineates a concept of multiple “substantial doers”. Regarding time, A.A. Kozlov introduces the notion of a “prospective series”, i.e., an order that we perceive precisely as development. The philosopher refers to this position as the concept of a timeless development. As for space, A.A. Kozlov believes that we see a symbol that real substances exist not in isolation, but interrelated, in a single connection. The author of the article concludes that the direction of “panpsychism”, with A.A. Kozlov as one of its brightest representatives, remains relevant. In a world where digital technologies are becoming significant, panpsychism can help in finding new ways for humans to interact with artificial intelligence.
