Abstract:
The dynamic changes that have manifested in the biosphere over the past thousand years in connection with the growth of scientific thought and the social activity of humanity have never been noted before. The human task is to deliver the most significant possible benefit to others. It becomes clear that the development of humanity can be achieved by
various means, one of which is science. Any deed is correct and harmonious with the common good when it results from the work of many people who can think. The noosphere mind combines ecological, global, universal and cultural values of civilized humanity, eliminating the opposition of man and nature, providing a stimulus to the moral and ethical evolution of planetary life in unity with nature. The modern anthropocosmic worldview denies the consumer's attitude to nature as an environment without which
fundamental worldview values cannot be formed in every culture. The article is devoted to studying semantic connections between the fundamental value concept TRUTH and the concept NOOSPHERIC MIND, which is associated with the current stage of development of the biosphere and is the evolutionary stage of human development as a whole. Using the method of diachronic commentary on etymological versions of the primary meanings of the lexemes truth, belief, faith, noosphere mind in the English-language etymological sources, it is analysed the verbal semantic state of lexemes based on reconstructed etymons. The semantic lexeme truth, belief, faith, noosphere mind are studied. Semantic correlations of these lexemes are revealed, and it is stated that they consist in common semes of “intellectual phenomenon encompassing motivational and cognitive systems”, “harmony”, “order”, “honest intentions”, “desires”, in the moral and spiritual component – “a religious concept” or “Christian science”, “God”. It is formulated that the noosphere and the NOOSPHERE MIND create new feelings and values; however, there is a place
for global universal values, among which the TRUTH is.
