Abstract

The article deal with the analysis of general problems of metareality in the framework of Russian religious philosophy. According to N.Lossky metareality is metahistorical, meta-logical and metarational. Metareality is the reality where history unfolds in eternity, where the traditional laws of logic that is law of identity, contradictions and the excluded third are not applicable. In metareality cognition is not rational but supra-rational, mystical and intuitive. If the reality of the phenomenal world is polydefinitial, that is, each object within the framework of different socio-cultural or scientific tradition can be given the different name, each object corresponds to single and all shared name in metareality. The basis of Confucian ethics is the doctrine of the correction of names. According to Confucius meaning which was that the name must correspond to the essence of the thing. The Confucius' ideal that it is necessary to give true names to things is realized entirety in metareality. An important aspect of metareality is extraterrestrial and timeless organization. Metareality is timeless. There is no temporal aspect, but there is variability in terms of external expressions of free will. There is not space in metareality, because there are not things. The Cartesian coordinate system applied in reality becomes meaningless in metareality, where objects can have "simultaneously" absolutely different coordinates and can be placed in the infinite number of "location" relatively to other objects. We made the conclusion that metareality in the framework of Russian religious philosophy is completely different from reality of phenomenal world.
