It is tempting to try to explain mind through quantum mechanisms – very tiny effects in the molecules of the brain – because matter and energy, below a certain size, seem to have some similar characteristics. Quantum particles/waves have an infinite number of possibilities at the same time, an ability to instantly influence something else […]

I Am the Knowing of All Experience
Think for a moment about that deep inner self that resonates with truth. That self you connect with when you tune out the chatter and noise of the everyday.That’s your true self. That’s the ‘you’ who isn’t seduced by materialism and worldly success because you know those things are illusory and impermanent. That’s the self […]
Returning to Natural Mind
Peter Russell suggest returning to natural mind may reduce our stress. “Today is a gift; that is why it is called Present”. We should stop to recall this phrase every so often. Have you ever been in a situation where someone has asked everyone to please take a moment of silence? If you would do […]
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, […]
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 […]
Why We Should Trust the Promise of AI
Machine studying and cognitive methods are actually a major phase many merchandise folks have interaction with each day, however to fully take advantage of the possibility of artificial intelligence, individuals need so much richer methods of communicating with the methods they use. The position of designers is to determine learn how to construct collaborative relationships […]
Does the mind use fiber optics? Calgary team floats ‘out-there’ theory of light communication in the brain – National Post
In high school biology, you learned that brain cells communicate through electrical impulses, with a current that flowed from neuron to neuron. University of Calgary scientists have come up with a dramatically different idea. They used sophisticated computer modeling to suggest that the brain also uses a system of light-based communication. Think a fiber-optic network […]
Human consciousness could be quantum mechanical after all – Blasting News
In the beginning of the 20th century, scientists moved from the classical mechanics of Galileo and Newton into the more uncertain Quantum Mechanics to explain the physical world. Something similar is happening in the science of how the mind works. Since the 1970s, scientists have questioned whether consciousness can be explained just by neurons in […]
Quantum Mechanics and Consciousness After Death
Does quantum mechanics predict the existence of a spiritual “soul”? Prominent physics researchers claim that quantum mechanics predicts some version of life after death. They assert that a person may possess a body-soul duality that is an extension of the wave-particle duality of subatomic particles. Wave-particle duality, a fundamental concept of quantum mechanics, proposes that […]
Can Science Crack Consciousness? – The Scientist
What is consciousness? This is a question that scientists are still struggling with. Now a new approach is emerging. Across disciplines, neuroscientists and complexity scientists are coming together, encompassing such fields as mathematics, physics, psychology, psychiatry, philosophy and more. The inter-disciplinary effort asks the same key questions: Is human consciousness different from animal consciousness? How […]
