Quantum Biology

Image
The one thing that we have to remember is that quantum mechanics and then developing in quantum field theory and so on was developing in parallel with the new areas of biology, genetics and molecular biology. The geneticists and molecular biologists by the 1930s and 1940s and indeed 1950s, when the double helix structure was discovered, really felt they had no need for quantum mechanics, they were so successful. They were learning so much about the molecular structure within living systems. They saw no requirement to bring in the strangeness of quantum mechanics. So to a large extent quantum biology really sort of went into the background. Particularly after the discovery of the double helix of DNA, spectroscopists and molecular biologists really were learning so much more about the building blocks of the cell, the instruction manual of life, they had no room for quantum superposition and the measurement problem, the uncertainty principle, and on all that silly business, they would lea...

The Light Of Consciousness

Image
I am proposing a fascinating hypothesis, that photons, the fundamental particles of light, are probably the key to understanding how consciousness creates our perception of the material world. So I want to explore this intriguing possibility with you, examining the role of photons in visual perception and their potential connection to the generation of conscious experience.  Photons are quantum fluctuations of light existing as both particles and waves. When these particles of light interact with the retina in our eyes. They trigger a cascade of electrochemical reactions. This process converts light energy into electrical signals that are then transmitted to the brain via the optic nerve. The brain, in turn (this is just a hypothetical, you know, a theory right now that I'm sharing with you as a scientific mind), processes these electrical signals, interpreting them as visual information. Now we actually elaborate on them. Although I'm saying 'brain', it is the mind whi...

Biophoton Theory

Image
Biophotons may well suffice to take the role of regulating the whole biochemistry and biology of life. An increasing number of observations from different laboratories all over the world suggest that biophotons are emitted from a coherent photon field within the living system. What are the consequences of coherence? It results in properties that are characteristic of biological systems. These include the high efficiency of energy transfer and transformation which often approaches 100%; the ability of communication at all levels within cells, between cells and between organisms capable of resonating to the same frequencies; the possibility for sensitive, multiple recognition systems utilizing coherent electromagnetic signals of different specific frequencies, such as, for example, the organization of metabolic activities within the cell, the operation of the immune network and a host of other biological functions involving specific recognition between hormones or ligands and their recep...

Biophoton Theory

Image
It is now well established that all living systems emit a weak light current of some photons. Scientists found that the nature of this, weak light emitted by living cells is different from the sunlight, and called these light photons as biophotons. The pioneering work done by Fritz-Albert Poppand his fellow scientists has given a deep insight into the phenomenon of biophoton emission. According to him, the purely molecular aspect of life sciences may be only one necessary step in understanding biology and can never reach the significance of sufficient and complete explanation. Molecules have no intelligence, despite the manifold impressive functions that have been assigned to them. Even the enzymes or messenger molecules have to be triggered by external energy, i.e., photons which activate the diversion transition state complexes. These activation energies cover the whole electromagnetic spectrum. The non-thermal photons provide the right quantum energies at the right place and right t...

Explore The Infinite Possibilities Of Lucid Dreaming

Image
Have you ever questioned the reality of your dreams, or even controlled their narrative? This is the fascinating realm of lucid dreaming — a state where individuals can consciously manipulate their dream environment. This blog demystifies this intriguing phenomenon, exploring its benefits, potential risks and scientific underpinnings. Prepare to unlock the door to dream awareness! One of the potential risks associated with lucid dreaming is the confusion that can sometimes arise between dreams and reality. When individuals regularly engage in lucid dreaming, it becomes easier for them to question what is real and what is not upon waking up. This blurring of boundaries can be disorienting, especially if one has vivid or emotionally intense dreams. Developing a practice of differentiating between dreams and reality through techniques like reality testing and journaling can help minimize this confusion and maintain a clear understanding of the distinction between our sleeping experiences ...

Quantum Approaches To Consciousness

Image
It is widely accepted that consciousness or, more generally, mental activity is in some way correlated to the behavior of the material brain. Since quantum theory is the most fundamental theory of matter that is currently available, it is a legitimate question to ask whether quantum theory can help us to understand consciousness. Several approaches answering this question affirmatively, proposed in recent decades, will be surveyed. There are three basic types of corresponding approaches: consciousness is a manifestation of quantum processes in the brain, quantum concepts are used to understand conscious mental activity without referring to brain activity, matter and consciousness are regarded as dual aspects of one underlying reality. The problem of how mind and matter are related to each other has many facets, and it can be approached from many different starting points. The historically leading disciplines in this respect are philosophy and psychology, which were later joined by beha...

Focal Points Of Dark Matter

Image
A unifying theory of physics and biological information through consciousness This article represents a transdisciplinary theory that attempts, in a nonmathematical way, to reconcile some contemporary concepts of physics with a novel theory of the mind. It represents a thought experiment that consolidates complexity by melding certain unifying natural science concepts into a coherent reality. The foundations of quantum mechanics and the cosmological mysteries of dark energy, dark matter, and normal matter non-dogmatically explained may be accessible to individuals other than those immersed in mathematical formulas. Through reasoning and models, terms are defined and illustrations provided, further clarifying concepts. In this theory, consciousness represents dynamic differences that come to an end. It exists through interdependent relationships between dark energy, focal points of dark matter (FPDMs), and normal matter with associated states of mind: pure awareness, pure mental state, ...
