The goals of knowledge (law, gestalt, and sequence) correspond to the three major groups of reality.
We distinguish three major groups of reality: 1. physical 2. organic-technical 3. historical reality.
The first and third groups are not completely independent; they depend on the isolation of the elements of the second group. This second group is not a synthesis of the other two, as our exposition might have seemed to imply; rather, the two others are dependent on the elements of the second. Only the gestalt, or thought-formed being, exists. To assert the existence of pure being or pure thought is mythology. Laws and sequences can occur only in gestalts.
