Soulite Theory (V.2): A Material Field Framework for the Soul

2025, Soulite Theory (V.2)

Abstract

This paper introduces Soulite Theory, proposing that the phenomenon traditionally referred to as the “soul” corresponds to a form of matter that exists simultaneously as its own antimatter, held in a Majorana-bound state and distributed through four-dimensional spacetime. In this model, spacetime itself functions as a topological superconductor, enabling stable, unmeasured qubit states that flow through all matter. The theory introduces L₀, the minimal localization point at which Soulite first binds to matter (e.g., lipid structures), marking the origin of qualia-expressing systems. It also defines QEP (Qualia Experience Potential), the degree to which a system possesses the faculties to express soulhood. Soulite Theory asserts that any system with sufficient QEP will express a soul-like state to the precise degree its structure allows. This replaces binary soul frameworks with a scalable continuum grounded in parameters. This paper challenges common interpretations of quantum immortality by arguing that qubit transfer across dimensions would break particle-hole symmetry, rendering such models physically inconsistent. Soulite Theory preserves symmetry by encoding consciousness as a qubit-like phenomenon with measurable, time-bound properties. The theory outlines testable proposals involving coherent information decay, gamma bursts, and terminal depolarization patterns in the brain, suggesting that the process of death may reflect the decoherence of a localized qubit rather than random entropic collapse. The theory argues that as a soul-bound qubit accumulates increasingly unique informational depth during its localized existence, it becomes mathematically and statistically irreproducible due to the specificity of lived experience across time. This increasing rarity gives the system astronomical objective value. At death, the qubit’s coherence collapses. The information itself disperses irreversibly back into the Soulite field, but its imprint remains permanently encoded in the system as the qubit traversed a singular trajectory through spacetime. Philosophically, Soulite Theory embraces impermanence, proposing that the potentially finite nature of soulhood adds meaning. In this framework, the soul's temporary nature lends profundity to every moment, choice, and memory. The inevitable decoherence of the qubit imparts intrinsic value to lived experience. While rooted in physics and information theory, Soulite Theory does not attempt to diminish spiritual frameworks. The concept of the soul has long been the territory of cultural, religious, and philosophical traditions. Brief references to Christian, Buddhist, and other paradigms are included as illustrations of how this model may resonate with, provoke inquiry within, or invite conversation between diverse worldviews. This paper offers a unified framework for understanding soulhood: one that is scientifically coherent, philosophically reflective, and capable of bridging inner experience with physical structure. It presents soulhood as an emergent, expressive phenomenon that is encoded, localized, and ultimately shaped by the physical laws of the universe.
