Annotation: Pragmatism rejects traditional metaphysics in ontology and assumes that the existence of reality is not a transcendental essence different from the subject, but a humanized reality, represented by a sign of the subject's creative activity. This point of view is limited by the definition of the object of cognition. According to pragmatism, “the object of knowledge is not what comes from thought, but the last point that exists in thought; it is the product of the research process and the proof of the content of thoughts.” From the point of view of cognition, the subject of cognition is difficult to consider elementary. Only when the initial universe becomes the real world will it become a cognitive object of reality, and the real world is realized through a generalized cognitive process. Pragmatism believes that the object of cognition does not exist before the start of the study, and at this point it is clearly visible.

Keywords: object, subject, experience, cognition, reasoning, thinking, empiricism, reality, concept of dao.
