Introduction to Non-Dualism Defining Dualism and Non-Dualism Dualism is a philosophical concept that posits the existence of two fundamental and often opposing realities or principles. Common examples include the mind-body dualism, which separates mental phenomena from physical phenomena, and the good-evil dichotomy, which distinguishes moral opposites. Dualism has been a cornerstone in various philosophical […]
Exploring Quantum Physics, Spirituality, and Consciousness: Insights from Federico Faggin and Bernardo Kastrup
Delving into the Intersection of Science and Spirituality through the Minds of Two Pioneering Thinkers Introduction Quantum physics, spirituality, and consciousness are profound topics that have intrigued humanity for centuries. They intersect in fascinating ways, offering insights into the nature of reality and our place within it. This article explores these intersections through the perspectives […]
Visual Attention and Consciousness
It does not need to be a very persuasive argument for us to understand the meaning of paying attention as we witness something visually or receive information through conversation. We also know, almost intuitively, that this has to be related to awareness and consciousness. However, scientific definition of that attention is not easy to […]
Wild and Structured Consciousness
From the philosophical point of view, consciousness can be considered quite wild. Our experience of the things like shooting pain or encountering intense color is quite different in its mechanism from processing information that is structured. This conclusion is the result of studies of empirical nature where scientists looked at cognitive functions of our […]
Bridging Cultures: How Different Societies Perceive Unity
Introduction Overview of Cultural Unity Cultural unity is a multifaceted concept that encompasses the ways in which different societies come together to form cohesive communities. It involves shared values, beliefs, and practices that bind people together, despite their diverse backgrounds. Cultural unity can manifest in various forms, such as national identity, community solidarity, or […]
Quantum Mechanics and Consciousness: A New Measurement | Bernard Haisch
Introduction to Quantum Mechanics and Consciousness Background and Motivation Quantum mechanics, the branch of physics that deals with the behavior of particles on the atomic and subatomic levels, has revolutionized our understanding of the universe. It challenges classical notions of determinism and introduces concepts such as wave-particle duality, superposition, and entanglement. These phenomena have not […]
Consciousness and Memory
When discussing consciousness, we are quick to discount the importance of memory, yet this is one of the most influential factors that contribute to our consciousness. Memory is often connected to perception. We think of memory of an event as a confirmation of the event happening, because we don’t question the existence of something […]
WUSTL physicist debates ‘quantum mind’ at New York roundtable | The Source – Washington University in St. Louis News
Professor of physics Mark Alford participated in a roundtable discussion about the quantum mind and consciousness. Stuart Hameroff of the University of Arizona participated as well, arguing that perception and consciousness arise from the collapse of the wave function of quantum-entangled electrons in the brain. Alford took the other side of the debate, insisting […]
A Question of Unity?
How Materialistic Science Limits Our Understanding of Reality In an era dominated by materialistic scientific thinking, the concept of unity seems elusive. This perspective, which views all things physical as composed of distinct parts, inherently creates division. Each part is unique and relative, lacking the universal sameness required for true unity. This materialistic mindset also […]
David Attenborough’s Life in Color – Issue 107: The Edge
