In this publication, the following questions are answered:
- What is the cognition?
- Where does the cognition came from?
- Can we set up a theoretical framework that is similar to the physics for the cognition?
- Which one is the most essential, the Universe or the Cognition?
- Which one did exist first, the Universe or the Cognition?
- Is it true to say that the cognition is an emergent phenomenon from brains?
The theory presented in this paper is called the Unicogse Theory. In this theory, the “real” physical world (the Universe) and the “imaginary” cognitive world(the Cognition) are two coexisting and indispensable sub-Beings of the super-Being called the Unicogse (Universe + Cognition). The Universe and the Cognition are a dual pair. The cognition is not generated by a physical system such as a brain. Yet, a physical system with grounded logics, such as natural languages, can access the Cognition through a window between the Universe and the Cognition. Only a grounded logic such as a human natural language has the ability to bridge the Universe and the Cognition. Therefore, the cognition of a brain is not generated by a brain, it is “received” by the brain from the Cognition side. From this point of view, a human brain is a “sink” of a cognition while the “source” of this cognition is at the Cognition side, the natural language in the brain is its “antenna”. This publication reveals the reasons that
- the interface between digital computers and human brains must be inefficient no matter how advance the digital computer can be,
- pure fuzzy computers are useless in the sense that their logic speed is zero, and
- it is possible to measure the mass and volume of information from the physical side of the Unicogse.
