It is necessary to tell that Parmenides's idea about beingness as the uniform, the eternal and the motionless, which seems absurd, actually can explain a lot of things in existence, if to assume that the except eternal, infinite Uniform there is not seeming, but quite the material, real world in time which is united indissolubly with the eternal Uniform in a certain sustainable system, both components which support each other.
To assume this, of course, possible, but it would be desirable to receive the answer to a question: how functions this system.
Beingness, if to see under it everything existing, or existing things, can't be manifested in absence of consciousness in any way. In other words, if the consciousness was not, as such, then and beingness there would not be – there would be nothing. This fact is, apparently, the primary cause of the appearance in human consciousness of the concept of God-creator.
The first of philosophers this ratio between consciousness and things quite distinctly, albeit in his own way, understood Berkeley: “IV. It is indeed an Opinion strangely prevailing amongst Men, hat Houses, Mountains, Rivers, and in a word all sensible Objects have an Existence Natural or Real, distinct from their being perceived by the Understanding. But with how great an Assurance and Acquiescence soever this principle may be entertained in the World; yet whoever shall find in his Heart to call it in Question, may, if I mistake not, perceive it to involve a manifest Contradiction. For what are the forementioned Objects but the things we perceive by Sense, and what do we perceive besides our own Ideas or Sensations; and is it not plainly repugnant that any one of these or any Combination of them should exist unperceived?” [9, p. 13].
In this statement of Berkeley traced the idea that without existence of senses and reason is problematic existence of everything else, inasmuch there are no one and nothing to perceive the rest. However, Berkeley out of this draws the conclusion, characteristic for his time: “XXVI. … there is no corporeal or material Substance: it remains therefore that the Cause of Ideas is an incorporeal active Substance or Spirit” [9, p. 19].
Whatever it was, but Berkeley is correct in his assumption that without consciousness the world does not exist, it simply cannot be as beingness: in this case the world is already non-existence, nothingness.
