Connection Between Quantum Physics and Consciousness

We may suspect that quantum mechanics and consciousness are related, but the details are not at all clear. In this paper, I suggest how the mind and brain might fit together intimately while still maintaining distinct identities. The connection is based on the correspondence of similar functions in both the mind and the quantum-mechanical brain.

=======================
The Mind-Brain Problem
The problem of the relation between mind and body is well known as a difficult `world knot’. Over the centuries various monistic and dualistic theories have been proposed, and the subject has had renewed interest as we try to imilate the implications of quantum physics. These implications may make us reexamine our views of brains and bodies, but it is still not clear what consequences they have for our understanding of minds.

He hit the nail on the head… People don’t think they can.
Exactly…if we were taught the truth from birth, we would know we could use ‘energy’ etc., for our benefit; however, again, those, yes there are those, beings on this power obsessed with self, rather you not know this or search for it until you are trained to think it is impossible.
Peace

exactly, but how deep is it? I believe it goes much further than any science could measure at this point in time in humanity’s current state; I doubt highly that we can see everything there is or measure it. Just my belief though.
I agree w/that. …
I agree w/that. That’s one reason why I greet w/skepticism anybody that claims they hold the ultimate truths, whether that be a particular religion or scientific view. The true ultimate truth is that nobody knows anything for sure; we only have faith that certain answers might be more right than others. I suspect that faith & science are much more intimately connected than we’ll ever know, though I’m a giant advocate that the two be kept separate in school. Science only knows what it can measure
And on your …
And on your question of how deep is it? It apparently goes as deep as least being on the sub-atomic level. It may even go beyond dimensions, since our science can only theorize what they may all entail. It is curious how certain Eastern Philosophies actually mirror many of the things our most advanced theoretical physicists have to say as they probe such things as “What is reality?”
I agree.
What …
I agree.
What should be taught in school though, at an early age is astronomy, to show just how fortunate we are on this planet–it is beautifully constructed with beautiful beings (minus the psycho-controlling s); and, music/art (these develop many levels of our being and are not a waste).
’social’ studies (indoctrination of how you should act) should go OUT of schools along with a few other ones…

I’ve thought for a while now, the brain is just a soul interface. Like the steering wheel in your car. Where the car is you body and you are your soul, controlling your body.
There is no death.

Ghost in the machine. Absolutely. In deep meditation, I can make the world around me look shimmery, liquid. I think, in that moment (which doesn’t last long), I am seeing things the way they really are.

So there may now be a new meaning to the phrase of “running on empties”!
I will get my personal Tibetan Guru to look into this empty-ness.
Wow! My Tibetan …
Wow! My Tibetan Guru says he will intentionally change the lottery result this month in my favor and make me another few million or so. Great. I am a believer!

dualism for the win!!! watch the end of the parabola film clip by tool, i believe it shows a dualistic approach ;D

Bingo!! We are the soul. The brain is nothing more than a decoding organ.

I think you have not experienced certain strange things such as I came across in my some 60 years of existence. I have witnessed people who predicted accurately lottery numbers that came out within the week. One has to see it to believe it. Of course, there is always doubt, the theory of synchronicity or is it coincidence due unity of consciousness? All I know is I personally benefited from such prediction although as a Catholic, I question the source of such prescience. But as a scientist…..

Form is emptiness, emptiness is form. I’m glad western thinkers got to this place, scientifically relating to Avatars of religion and philosophy in the east.
