Has the human soul been found by science? A controversial quantum theory of consciousness called “Orch OR” (which stands for “orchestrated objective reduction”) currently being studied at Ohio State, recently had a review, and the scientists supporting this idea are claiming the recent discovery of quantum vibrations in “microtubules” inside brain neurons corroborates their beliefs. […]
The Consciousness Conundrum: End of the Materialist worldview?
For a long time, consciousness has been the subject of neuroscience, psychology, philosophy, cognitive science and other disciplines in the natural and social sciences and the humanities. Consciousness is hard to define, and no single definition is apt. Common sense would describe consciousness as “those states of sentience and awareness that typically begin when we […]
China’s Scientists Propose the Human ‘Quantum Brain’ – The Daily Galaxy (blog)
“The Source of Our Dominance on the Planet: More Complex Than a Galaxy” In a space science first, a human brain-computer interaction test system, developed by Tianjin University, has been installed in the lab and it is set to conduct a series of experiments in space, People’s Daily reported. According to Ming Dong, the leader […]
Bicameralism: Confusion on Consciousness
There is much confusion on the idea of the bicameral mind, one theory about the past of the human mind. A bicameral mind would not experience life and death the way that we do. People would continue to be present, at least in voice if not in image, even after their deaths to those who […]
Media Technologies, Cognition And Consciousness-Expansion
Media Technologies, Cognition And Consciousness-Expansion – Can they be? Listen Up, you video-game fanatics! There is a study currently being conducted that suggests that playing video games, or virtual realty, could actually be used as a cultural amplifier, and lead a person into a higher state of consciousness. Read the full article here: Media Technologies, […]
Quantum Consciousness – Discover Magazine
It is widely accepted that consciousness or, more generally, mental activity is in some way correlated to the behavior of the material brain. Since quantum theory is the most fundamental theory of matter that is currently available, it is a legitimate question to ask whether quantum theory can help us to understand consciousness. Several programmatic […]
Marilyn Schlitz – Does Transpersonal Psychology Revamp Reality?
Does Transpersonal Psychology Revamp Reality? New studies indicate that not everyone who has certain mystical experiences out of the norm, is in need of medication, or should be dismissed as being delusional. Such cases may be found in those who have E.S.P. These people may indeed be able to see into a whole different way, […]
What Is Consciousness? Physicists Look for Answers
Since humans were able to think, there have always been those who strive to find out how and why we exist as we do. From learning about how the body keeps us alive to the possibility of the human soul, scientists have pondered the questions that are very difficult to prove. Recently, many scientists have […]
Reality Is, As Tesla Said, “Non-Physical.” Why The Large Hadron Collider Will Never Find The “God Particle” – Collective Evolution
Reality Is, As Tesla Said, “Non-Physical.” Many perceptive scientists are increasingly coming to a realization that a genuine understanding of reality requires stepping outside the physical world. To understand the nature of reality, it is not enough to just continually examine our physical systems – we also have to examine the role of non-physical systems, […]
Quantum artificial intelligence could lead to super-smart machines
With technology making bounding leaps forward every day, it’s no surprise that scientists are getting closer to developing robots that can learn just like humans do. By applying quantum effects to reinforcement learning when trying to teach artificial intelligence, scientists found that the machine learned much quicker. This research also holds some importance for studying […]
