ˈkɒzməʊtɛːrɪənɪz(ə)m
noun
the Astronist ontological belief that the cosmic reality is the only reality and what does not exist to affect The Cosmos, does not exist. It is considered as a form of anti-anthropocentrism and is based on the notion of cosmic empathy, the perceptual form in which a person imagines existence from the perspective of the entire Cosmos, thus placing anything below astronomical in scale as inferior.
