The Quantum Nature of Consciousness
🧠 Embrace the theory that consciousness is quantum and foundational, not an emergent property of matter, as science alone has struggled for 100 years to interpret quantum mechanics.
🌌 Recognize that qualia (conscious experience) exists in a conscious Quantum field, separate from the physical body, challenging the materialist worldview.
⚛️ Understand that quantum information represents inner experience, and the collapse of the wave function embodies Free Will, a concept validated by physicist Giacomo Mauro D'Ariano's derivation of quantum physics from quantum bits.
💡 Shift the paradigm from John Wheeler's "it from bit" to "it from Cubit" to acknowledge quantum information as the deeper, ontological basis of reality.
Redefining Biological Systems
🔬 Differentiate biological cells from classical microprocessors, recognizing that cells are Quantum-classical systems where 50 trillion cells each contain the genome and potential knowledge of the whole organism (holographic).
🌱 Acknowledge that the existence of epigenetics, a concept ostracized 10 years ago, proves that every cell (a part-whole) can change by leveraging the potential knowledge of the whole.
🌊 Understand that particles are states of a field, not separable objects, like a wave from the sea, implying that living systems are fundamentally connected through quantum fields.
Implications for AI and Societal Paradigms
🤖 Reject the notion that AI can "best us," as it lacks creativity (non-algorithmic) and genuine understanding; its output still requires human consciousness for meaning.
⚖️ Advocate for AI's proper use as a tool to accelerate self-knowing and solve complex problems, rather than for monetization or control that could turn humanity into a "self-fulfilling prophecy" of being machine-controlled.
🧭 Challenge the materialist and reductionist framework of scientism, which impedes progress by ignoring the inner world and has led to an "incoherent" understanding of quantum phenomena like quantum computing.
The Universe's Drive for Self-Knowing
🌟 Adopt the postulate that one (the totality of existence) is dynamic, holistic, and wants to know itself, integrating scientific and spiritual perspectives into a unified understanding.
💡 Recognize Free Will and Consciousness as fundamental, self-evident postulates – a departure from trying to explain them with mathematics, which consciousness itself creates (a realization that took Federico Faggin 30 years).
🌌 Understand that space itself is the memory of the self-knowing of one, explaining why the universe is constantly growing and expanding exponentially, driven by the self-discovery process.
Key Points & Insights
🧠 Prioritize understanding consciousness as fundamental; physicist Federico Faggin suggests that a paradigm shift in this area will achieve more in a decade than in all prior scientific history (echoing Nikola Tesla).
🌳 Consider the falsifiable prediction that trees are conscious (despite lacking brains), which could fundamentally disprove the idea that consciousness is solely a product of the human or animal brain.
🤝 Foster cooperation over competition, as a direct experience and understanding of our interconnected nature (as "part-holes" of one totality) naturally diminishes competitive drives.
🕊️ Reframe death as the body's cessation, not the self's end, akin to a drone pilot losing a drone but still existing in a vaster reality, a concept supported by millions of near-death experiences.
✨ Embrace the idea that meaning is the ultimate ontology and that the universe is an "explosive" process of self-knowing, constantly creating new connections and possibilities.
