Summary/Abstract: The main purpose of this study, treated as a kind of meditation, was to show the interconnections between various forms of human thought and those concerning real life issues – where spirit and matter interact. Hereby, the assumption was taken that the spirit – in order to achieve mature effects – should precede matter. In a feedback loop, predicted goals have a chance to become more perfect.Similarly, the thesis was formulated and proved that each individual human domain can be considered as an element of a more general one – where philosophy can play the role of a “common denominator”. Such general statements were addressed in particular to the technical and human sciences – as well on native soil as in Japan – referring simultaneously to various spiritual attributes given to the Cosmos.
