Introduction to the Quantum Mind Defining the Quantum Mind The concept of the “Quantum Mind” refers to the hypothesis that quantum mechanical phenomena, such as superposition and entanglement, play a fundamental role in the processes of consciousness. Unlike classical theories that view the brain as a complex but ultimately classical system, the quantum mind […]

Ohio State professor challenges classical view of consciousness – OSU – The Lantern
At first thought, you would not expect a professor of international politics and security to be interested in research exploring our consciousness. Yet this is exactly what is happening at the OSU. The book that has just been published presented a decade worth of research by professor Wendt. He explains that his interest in […]
The Universe is an Illusion: A Comprehensive Exploration
Exploring the Intersection of Black Holes, Event Horizons, and the Holographic Principle. The universe is a vast and enigmatic expanse that has fascinated humanity for centuries. From ancient philosophers to modern scientists, the quest to understand the true nature of the universe has led to numerous theories and discoveries. Among the most intriguing of these […]
The God quest: why humans long for immortality – New Statesman
Eternity and immortality are two concepts that very few of us would recognize as something we pursue, yet just by observing human behavior, we can say that the desire for this life that lasts forever is quite present. The unusual conclusion about these quests is that we do not give them up even as […]
Consciousness and Dreams
Many people would quickly say that our dreams and consciousness are completely opposite experiences. However, since we remember the dreams in most cases, we can actually state that dreams are exactly the experiences deeply rooted in consciousness. In fact, they are among the most unique and vivid experiences of this kind. Even those who […]
Beyond Dualism: Embracing Non-Dualistic Approaches in Philosophy
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 […]
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 […]
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 […]
