Bear with me, I don't really know how to phrase this. So I'm wondering about experience as experience. My intuition is that there can't be any intrinsic quantitative reality "behind" experience because then it would be an objective phenomenon and not purely subjective.
The context for this question is when idealists posit some sort of universal consciousness that has parts (I guess) that obey the laws of physics, like the universal mind is aware of all the matter in the universe, and that's why it exists. But these experiences have some sort of "intrinsic" dispositions to behave a certain way, which I assume is quantitative, given that it's supposed to be explaining physics. This seems to conflict with what I understand "ideas" to be, which is purely subjective, nothing beyond their appearance. Isn't an intrinsic propensity for behaving this or that way beyond the appearance?
