Omni-local consciousness

Is Consciousness Local or Global? Searching for Old Answersin a Newer Context, 2021

Consciousness, defined as subjective awareness or Phenomenal Consciousness, is always about something, i.e., it is intentional. The question of where this Consciousness is located has been perplexing the physicalist mind for quite a long time. With the development of neurosciences and imaging techniques, spatial and temporal, the question was supposed to dissolve. However, even with these advancements in scientific tools, the question remains and has turned even more perturbing. The current terminology that the debate uses is local and global. Hence the question, 'Is consciousness Local or Global?' In the following paper, the scholar has tried to put forward a brief sketch of the issues involved in answering the above question. Next, the attempt looks for empirical evidence that still holds the problem. Lastly, the paper will delve briefly into the perspective of the Advaita Vedanta School of philosophy and try to look for some potential answers.

A detailed account of the theory of consciousness has been presented that firstly examines the 3D Earth mainstream science theories of consciousness based upon the notion that consciousness is created in, and is process by, the brain. It is elucidated that these theories lack adequacy in describing the phenomenon of consciousness mainly due to the fact they neither explain the phenomenon of consciousness being associated with a unified individuated entity that is commonly referred to as the ‘Self’ or ‘Soul,’ nor the fact of Principle of Free Will and Sovereignty, the most fundamental aspect or Right of our existence, equally holding us to the doctrine of self-responsibility and self-accountability by which we are judged and viewed within our human society. And, although other desperate attempts have been made, for example, by concocting the concept of “microtubules” as very minutes protein structures found in all cells being responsible for our conscious awareness, conducting thoughts, or in other words, the ‘Soul’ or the ‘Self,' yet, the fact remains that such protein structures are first of all found all over the body and even in in simple single celled organisms such as amoeba, as well as the fact that such a theory still fails to answer the fundamental question of how subjective experiences and thought processes arise, particularly that it is clinically observed that drugs that can damage the structure of “microtubules” have no effect on consciousness. Thus, non of the brains-based theories or the theory based upon “microtubules” can explain the concept of Self or Soul. The author has previously explored the theory of consciousness with reference to quantum mechanics with the overall conclusion that consciousness is a non-local phenomenon that originates from what is commonly referred to as the God-SOURCE, an Omnipotent, Omniscient, Omnipresent source that epitomizes a gigantic fountain or reservoir composed of infinite frequential energy that initially exists as a giant Scalar or Stationary wave capable of vibrating longitudinally withing the positive and negative infinity of time, a phenomenon that is commonly referred to as the NOW moment, disseminating ITS quanta of energy into what is initially a Void or Abyss, transforming it to a well ORDERED edifice of may be referred to as 356 DISCRETE space-time dimensions that form ITS body as the absolute macrocosm and what the author refers to as the Neural Network of God. Accordingly, without redundant duplication of what was presented in the aforementioned previous works in which the author concludes consciousness observation is what gives rise to ‘manifestation,’ by virtue of what quantum mechanics views as collapse of a ‘wave function’ when “measurement” is conducted, the author herein reaffirms that our consciousness is a ‘local’ quantum phenomenon that emanates from the said non-local SOURCE, which epitomizes ITS self-similar fractilized holographic aspect, giving rise to the concept of a ‘local’ soul, essentially being an offspring of the God-SOURCE, in which through the dissemination of ITS quanta of energy as to create us, breaks down the perpetual NOW moment into DISCRETE intervals of time represented as (bidirectional) vectors connecting us (and our Twin Soul) to God, about which our (or God’s) local quanta of energy divided into two parts, sequentially torsionally vibrate in time, simultaneously spinning in a counterclockwise-clockwise and clockwise-counterclockwise (our Twin) manner, simultaneously and symbiotically, fulfilling what the author has introduced as the ‘Dualism Principle of Creation.’ Finally, this paper concentrates on the overall or the Cosmic aspect of the phenomenon of consciousness, deferring further details with regard to the details of our nature of quantum consciousness or what the author also refers to as sentient vibration about the Neural Network of God, in companion paper(s).

This is an attempt at linking consciousness, information, meaning and understanding. My purpose is to build bridges between the way the natural sciences and mathematics have dealt with the problem of consciousness and information, on the one hand, and the way in which the social sciences and the humanities deal with the problem of meaning. It is based upon Penrose's theory of consciousness as non-computable decision making.

On the Metaphysical basis of Consciousness, 2021

The Hard problem of consciousness described by Chalmers highlights the intrinsic manner of how the phenomenology of qualia is extremely hard to describe with empirical evidence until now. The aim of this article is to discuss the materialistic points of state-of-art research in how the brain may process inputs of environment previous and current experience, and how orch-or-theory and integration information theory could be explained in an abstract manner of how the creation of experience begins. After that, introduce something we could call Metaphysical Property, that would act on the brain to produce consciousness.

Phenomenology and the Cognitive Sciences, 2000

It is argued that, based on Kant's descriptive metaphysics, one can prescribe the necessary metaphysical underpinnings for the possibility of conscious experience in an artificial system. This project is developed by giving an account of the a priori concepts of the understanding in such a system. A specification and implementation of the nomological conditions for a conscious system allows one to know a priori that any system possessing this structure will be conscious; thus enabling us to avoid possible false-indicators of consciousness like that offered in a behaviouristic analysis. This is an alternative approach to the bottom-up or top-down approaches adopted by, for example CYC (Lenat & Feigenbaum 1992) and COG Brooks & Stein 1993), neither of which, alone, or in some hybrid form, have proved productive.
