Page "Idealism" Paragraph 15
from
Wikipedia
The current worldview has it that everything is made of matter, and everything can be reduced to the elementary particles of matter, the basic constituents — building blocks — of matter.
And cause arises from the interactions of these basic building blocks or elementary particles ; elementary particles make atoms, atoms make molecules, molecules make cells, and cells make brain.
This view does not deny that matter also has causal potency — it does not deny that there is causal power from elementary particles upward, so there is upward causation — but in addition it insists that there is also downward causation.
