Kœstler (1979: 542):
Thus Eddington wrote:The stuff of the world is mind-stuff. The mind-stuff is not spread in space and time; these are part of the cyclic scheme ultimately derived out of it.

Eddington's view is consistent with the perspective of Systemic Functional Linguistic theory that categories of experience, such as space and time, are meanings construed in the social semiotic system of language, and so are the contents of consciousness.
cf also the view of William James that pure experience is the one primal stuff out of which everything in the world is composed.
