Interactionist Dualism, Epiphenomenalism, and Parallelism
How best can we understand whether there was a mental or physical world and whether our bodies and minds are genuinely related when contemplating the body and mind? The mind-body dilemma has actively been a fundamental philosophical issue from various perspectives. There are many distinct, complex interpretations of the link between the mind and the body in modern philosophy of mind.  The mind, as per Dualism, cannot be diminished to a purely physical entity like the brain. The mind is an entirely distinct entity from material things. The belief that the cognitive and physical – or thoughts and bodies or mind and brain – are, in specific ways, profoundly distinct kinds of things is known as Dualism inside the cognitive science. Since rational thinking informs us that physical form exists, and there is mental pressure to produce a coherent account of the universe, materialistic monism may be considered the "standard alternative." As a result, most discussions of Dualism begin with the assumption of the material globe's actuality, followed by explanations behind why the consciousness cannot be viewed as a simple part of that universe. According to Epiphenomenalism, the connection is one-way: the physical creates the intellectual, not the other way around. According to parallelism, there is no causal relationship at all.
Interactionist dualism asserts that the brain has two qualities, emotional and cognitive, that ultimately engage with one another. Scientific theorists like 'Ivan Pavlov and B. F. Skinner' set out in the 1900s to discover laws that described the link between stimulus and reactions without referring to interior mental events. René Descartes, a French rationalist thinker, proposed interactionism, which is still linked to him. Parallelism is most commonly linked with Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz, a German thinker and scholar. He claimed that the Creator achieved a direct relationship between mental and physical in a "pre-established harmonization" at the dawn of creation. Exceptional views include interactionist dualism, Epiphenomenalism, and parallelism on cognitive thinking. However, all hypotheses agree that physical processes generate mental experiences, and the causal connections are vastly different.
If minds and bodies are distinct spheres, whether by the composition or the way that materialistic Dualism demands, how do they connect in daily existence: thoughts and emotions; occasionally, they create physical responses, and actual occurrences often generate them. I will talk about interactionist dualism, Epiphenomenalism, and parallelism now. These three are efforts to reconcile the mind-body divide. Interactionist dualism is the concept that the mental and the body or emotional activities and bodily occurrences connect owing to a component of daily reality, which is one of our rational thinking assumptions. I frequently react to these events through my perceptions, which are the natural universe. The thinking influenced words and deeds. As a result, there is a natural solid predisposition...
