Abstract: In the world of science, we can approach reason from various perspectives. To simplify, here we will consider a biological perspective, seeing reason as a product of the human brain, which has been achieved through evolution; and a physical perspective: cosmic rationality, as an abstract, broad rationality, prior to any galaxy and any star, which has preceded life and will survive it. We will consider some relationships between both types of rationality: Under what conditions does a cosmic rationality admit a biological rationality? What structure and what symmetry breaks must occur for a universe to admit a rationality within it? To what extent can biological reason know cosmic reason? What is or could be the nature of this cosmic reason? Does biological rationality create its own field of reason, or does it discover a field of reason prior to it?
