      Consciousness is a process in a moment that continues from moment to moment. A moment of observation in the mind/Citta has a minimum of 7 qualities/activities called 'fair for all the minds' (Sabba Citta Sadharana), the mental activities/factors (Cetasika). It is a big process that happens during a single observation of the mind. Those 7 simultaneous activities are as follows:
      1.) Touch, Collision (Passa)
      2.) Feeling, Intensity (Vedana)
      3.) Signal, Reminder (Sangna)
      4.) Intention, Action (Chethana)
      5.) One-pointedness, Concentration (Ekaggatha)
      6.) Vitality, Life Faculty/Density (Jivitindriya)
      7.) Mental Advertence, Remembering (Manasikara)
      There are 52 mental factors/activities that join with the mind/Citta in many different combinations while making a mind/Citta moment. Likely, the mind/Citta doesn't require an external soul to remind the previous activity of the consciousness/Citta. As mentioned in Buddhist texts, a moment of consciousness/Citta is filled with a lot of simultaneous functions that can behave like a stream of souls (living moments). The mind/Citta is NOT the only absolute reality mentioned in those earliest texts. The smallest material/Rupa unit lives for 51 smallest moments repeatedly. Also, the mind/Citta usually continues a series of mind/Citta activities (Citta Vithi) like a thought process within 51 smallest moments. So likely, the mind moment depends on the life time of the material units. It is the theory of the mind explained in Theravada Buddhist teachings. Thank you.

      @@kiran0511, It is a simplified explanation. According to the Buddha's teachings, the mind continues as 3 universal moments that arise, exist, and dissolve. And a stream of the mind (Pali: Chitta Vithi) has a maximum of 17 mind moments because likely it is going through a matter unit (in Planck scale) that live only for 17 mind moments. And during that process, the mind continues as many rebirths every 3 moments. And also, the stream of thought stops within 17 mind moments conditionally, like another death. The normal death is a conditional death, and it can continue to the next 17 mind moments of the conditioned life until the mind moment stop continuing as a result of that 17 conditioned mind moments. It is a very fundamental/deep process in the universe. Also, the many world interpretation that is being used to explain the collapse of the wave function is compatible with the 31 or 30 planes of existence (30 worlds if we don't separate the animal and human world) mentioned in the texts because the moment of observation in the mind is limited to only one universal moment within the series of mind moments that usually continue for 51 universal moments. Likely, there are 50 universal moments that we don't use to observe the outside world. If the world we observe is separated from the other worlds because of the wave function, then the other worlds/matter and beings would appear within those moments without allowing us and our detectors to observe them.

    Regarding consciousness and brain parts, sure cerebellum gives us complex thoughs and skills, but the consciousness itself is established to come from the reticular formation.
    One of the main challenges in isolating its location in the brain is actually isolating or clearing of the definition of consciousness itself.
    So roughly speaking if you strip it from all the fancy perks that cerebellum provides (and observe people with missing or damaged cerebellum/there are even cases of people with no cerebellum at all!/),
    you can still find some of the main chracteristics of consciousness coming from the reticular formation.
    While it's difficult to establish were exactly a brain perk comes from, it's not so difficult to test when it's lost. And many such tests (and some incidents) have shown that the consciousness is easily lost or disturbed when damaging or affecting the reticular formation.
    On the other hand cerebellum can perform even relativelly complex task without involving consciousness, usually when an activity has been well automated, and it's performed as we say by habbit, our conscious thoughts can be busy with entirely different subject, even to the point we don't remember we did that automated thing (but often it's clear we've done it, not someone else).

    Brian on "theories without the collapse of the wave function" you need to watch the Fetzer Institute lectures. Quantum physics Professor Basil J. Hiley follows up Roger Penrose's lecture. Hiley is emphasizing the same noncommutativity foundation of reality that Penrose is also emphasizing. Hiley then tells Penrose that there is no need for a collapse of the wavefunction or even using the wavefunction since the noncommutativity resonates to the macroscale. This was also the argument of Eddie Oshins, the quantum physicist who coined "quantum psychology" when he worked with math professor Louis Kauffman at Stanford Linear Accelerator Center or SLAC

I went to Twin Cities campus and Fetzer organized a JFK assassination conference - he coorganized it with my graduate advisor of Liberal Studies - Art Hartkin - who had bragged his personal mentor was Werner von Braun (who has been implicated in the assassination conspiracy). I told this to Peter Dale Scott who told me he and other scholars had to disown Fetzer when they attended that conference only to realize it was fake. haha. I told Peter Dale Scott how Art Harkin had threatened me - he emailed me stating only this, "I will personally make sure you are never published in the MN Daily again." After I had exposed on Werner von Braun had personally supervised mass slave labor and maybe Art Harkin shouldn't be bragging he was Hartkin's mentor.... Oh finally I was looking for this book by that New Age guru - what was his name again? Anyway it was published by the SAME publisher that Fetzer had all his academic books published by. Turns out their office was now right next to University of Minnesota - on University Avenue. Paragon Press. I went in there to discover the Moonie "network of Professors" also shared the same office and that Paragon Press is a Moonie Front. Then Fetzer told me in email he didn't realize - or he responded elsewhere - he had not realized his academic publisher had been a Moonie Front. Pretty hilarious considering Fetzer considers himself a conspiracy researcher....

      @@jamesbarlow6423 here's Prof Hiley to me: Dear Drew,
      It is difficult to comment authoritatively on Ruth’s paper as I have not had time to read it carefully. My own venture into weak values was that they provided a means of measuring transition probability amplitudes. That means they are providing a way of further exploring the quantum formalism but adding nothing fundamentally new. In this regards I agree with Ruth and the two referees.
      I do not know what Alain Connes was specifically talking about. However non-commutativity is deeply ingrained in quantum phenomena and is not, in my opinion, “only mathematics”. The early pioneers of QM, such as Heisenberg, Born, Jordan, Dirac and others showed this feature of non-commutativity in great detail. It was Schrödinger’s work that led to the development of a tremendously successful algorithm based on the notion of a wave function which was formalised into the bras and kets that we have got very very used to manipulating. However by identifying the wave function with the 'state of a system’ we have been left with the unsolved ‘problem', the collapse of the wave function. After one hundred years of effort we have been unable to 'solve this problem’. In the last few years I have come to the conclusion that this is unsolvable simply because it is the wrong question as it is based on treating an algorithm rather than a description of an unfolding process.
      That the quantum formalism was an algorithm was Bohr’s position all those years ago, but he argued that we could not go deeper by attempting to analysing the process because of the 'Principle of Complementary’. This philosophical principle seemed to have universal appeal outside of physics but now, he argued, with the advent of quantum phenomena, this principle also had a role to play in physics, so to Bohr, the principle became a universal principle that applied to all knowledge.
      The availability of the ‘algorithm’ which was easy to manipulate and lead to experimental verification should be contrasted with the difficulty in understanding non-commutativity, both mathematically and conceptuality. Furthermore it was very difficult to apply it physical problems. Thus the algorithm becomes the ‘only game in Town’ as we learn how to deal with its uncomfortable features. Then there follows an attempt to make the formalism in to an ontology and the result is a plague of interpretations.
      I have recently published two papers which address directly the challenge of providing a description of this ‘quantum unfolding’ as Dirac puts it. It is a very different approach which is based on an exploration of non-commutative geometry, in the same spirit of Alain Connes but using more physical intuition. It is a long story but I have a lecture on line at "emmy network" which may help. My lecture is Lecture 2 immediately after Roger Penrose’s lecture in the series ‘Mind and Matter’. My lecture was about 'Matter’ not ‘Mind'!
      Enjoy,
      Basil.

    25:14 “wave collapse theory” perhaps a metaphor will do: think of microtubules as DIGITAL SAMPLERS… the “measurement” is little more than taking a snapshot of a thing at a specific moment. Or taking a slice of some bit of audio … So, what you have in these microtubule rich hydrophobic cells of the brain is 10 to the 16th wave collapse processors (digital samplers) processing information and sending up to the neuron level.
    NOW we can start talking about SAMPLE RATES, or the fidelity of various conscious states… waking up vs peak performance, etc… or the processing speed of a human vs a fly…
    I feel this dovetails very well with information theory… and does not rule out pan psychism.
    I say this: via microtubules, we are HARD WIRED into an information-rich universe. This Orch-OR mechanism easily explains extra-sensory experience… it explains remote viewing and precognition (Radin), and every other para-psychological phenomenon.

    • @Matt-og5kd
      @Matt-og5kd Год назад

      "selecting between superpositions" is called wavefunction collapse, and Penrose posits that there is a random "noncomputational" element that is responsible for choosing the superposition. Since his interpretation of Godels incompleteness theorem is that human minds are capable of knowing the answer to a GOdel unprovable statement, thus humans are running some kind of non-computational algo, it means that consciousness (which he defines as understanding) is a result of something beyond computation. Now since he believes an aspect of wavefuction collapse is noncomputational he looks to wavefunction collapes (objective collapse theory) as a mechanism for consciousness, ergo quantum computation leaves room for noncomputation which leads to consciousness

It is all preordained. The quantum effect introduces randomness and variability both forward in time and backwards in time. A multi universe is the logical extension of that quantum effect. Only those universes which are observed do materialise. Would that be a valid option interpretation or understanding?

    If matter derives from consciousness, it suggests that when we observe microtubules, we're actually perceiving consciousness rather than objective reality-a sort of veil, like an indirect realist perspective. I'm not implying that microtubules possess consciousness; rather, it's analogous to how we perceive the colour red, which exists solely within the mind. Well, depending if you view reality as indirectly or directly.

    I’d wager that Hameroff has taken more physics courses than Keating has taken medical courses. I’m always amazed at the hubris of physicists like Sabine Hasenpfeffer presuming that her PhD in Physics somehow makes her an authority on every other science. Physics is the most simplistic science. Chemists must understand physics and biologists must understand physics and chemistry.

    To imagine that only humans are conscious is such ludicrous hubris. All living things are conscious in their way. Everything with a dual membrane which mediates interactions across that membrane might be conscious. The larger the network the more room for noise to be introduced. The more internal feedback loops the more room for echoes of fragments of previous inputs. The more "imagination". What people seem to ignore is noise. We aim for perfect resolution in our computers. Cut off a base pin here and there on a transistor and suddenly we require error correction on a major scale. Our brain is analogue in that there are not only the charted itemized interactions but all kinds of variables like the quality of the myelin at any given point modifies the signal transmission. The temperature at any point modifies the chemical interaction.
    Also this brain/body separation which is not the case. Our entire body is a system. Local anesthetic works on local conditions and hardly modifies the brain yet can stop pain. So can acupuncture. You get a headache when you eat poison even if that poison isn't directly affecting your brain chemistry. Nausea is a whole body experience.
    Our entire body is a single wave function, to isolate the brain is like isolating the proton when every proton is or was part of a holistic thing, a hydrogen atom. Which itself was previously a neutron.
    Neutrons decay into hydrogen. Gravity eventually shoves the electron back in at neutron star/event horizon.
    I'm glad that Sir Roger reminded everyone that Schrodinger himself thought that this superposition/statistical view was nonsense. The cat is in a state. Or knowledge about that state does not determine the state it only determines our knowledge about that state.

    So this is basically the best podcast on the subject thus far ever. There is however the issue where Roger struggles how to merge QP with GR. It is solvable using a new perspective; Let's for a moment treat the QP world as being completely even-handed and symmetric to our macro world of spacetime offering the perspective of mutually compensation. How would we do that? The QP world would be exactly like our world, but wit a switch in measures; The measure of Mass has the function of Clock (Roger already mentioned that himself) and the measure of Energy has the function of 3D grid. In addition; 'they' will look at our ST dominated grid continuum as 'quantized space and time' as a particle property. This setup would count as completely symmetric, AND thus offering us the chance to have each change in any measure being compensated over both setups, via this inverse relation. So how can we test if this is correct?
    The typical QP process at the smallest possible scale is fusion or splitting (fission) of 2 atomic nuclei. So then; how would the motion formula look like? Well in spacetime we have space(diistance) = time* speed. If we replace space with energy and time with mass and we get: E=M*speed. Speed we have to define as [J/kg=Nm/kg=m2/s2=(gamma)C2]. So we get E=MC2 as the emergent speed formula. We know this formula occurs during nuclear processes. So Einstein put us on the wrong foot claiming E=MC2 was an 'equivalence' relation. its not. It's THE movement formula for the QP world! So in general, whenever we have a speed of (gamma)C in spacetime, it would need to be compensated by C^2 in QP. That cannot be. Unless....we usher in a mathematical trick of inserting i^2=-1 on the QP side. Thats the invention of complex numbers! So we have a dual setup leadsing to QP being the imaginary speed effect of any real speed in spacetime. Notice also that -m2/s2 resembles the virtual effect we call gravity since it represents a virtual contracting grid surface! So then since we are talking speeds, we must go back to Einstein's SR. Here we now realize that speed contracts frontal space and time, and 'wrapps' these frontal fieldlines in to 'quanta' of windings around the speeding object giving it quantized extra energy (inverse space) and quantized extra mass (inverse time) in a virtual speed of - J/kg or - m2/s2 which is gravity. So it is Einsteins SR that gives us gravity and GR is merely the geometric description of the SR application in restmass where the cummulative effect of all speeding subatomic particles appears radial. Again, Einsteins has put us on the wrong foot...SR and not GR is the fundamental theory of gravity. Finally it is worth understanding that 'locality' in spatial terms would have its counterpart in the energy grid. meaning; two particles with the same energy spin in all 3 grid directions and at the same mass 'moment' are considered 'local' and can thus influence each-other regardless any distance in the spatial grid. That's called quantum entanglement. So we have about 5 key century-old paradoxes solved simply by introducing this dual setup. I think that should suffice...

      @@janaenae1338 My knowledge of emoticon speak is limited but as Brian agrees with you I trust you I agree with you too. Maybe the above is too much text, I am sorry that I don't know how to convey it. Let me just say that Penrose claiming Mass is the clock in the subatomic world, directly implies all of the above, even if he hasn't thought it through himself. How does this directly matter to you? well, if energy is indeed the 3D grid in the subatomic world AND Hameroff's microtubules geometric setup is equal in all humans, than quantum coherence of one brain is shared (entangled) with all others, ie. produced frequencies would match. Meaning; we humans may all appear separated in spacetime terms, but in brain-energy grid terms we would all be 'local' for anything living in the subatomic world. Meaning we are all the same entity, just with different bodies. We 'collapse' into the various states we see. But it is one and the same entity for our creator, if we have a creator in the subatomic world. he/she/it would need to do probability calculation to 'find any of us'. So there is a lot more where this research may lead to.

    2) rational

    1-9 and their geometric counterparts 1D-9D are:

    then they are also
    "not-necessary" 🚫.
    Newton also says since 1-9 and 1D-9D are "natural" ✅
    then they are also
    "necessary" 🚫.

    Natural does not mean necessary. Similar, yet different.
    Not-natural just means no spatial extension; zero size; exact location only. Necessary.

Obviously that's not where you are going to be nobody is there, you will always find yourself in a place where there is consciousness.

    Hi Brian, I like your serious approach to science and to philosophical issues. Thank you. Regarding this video, isn't consciousness just subjective experience, a.k.a. qualia? How can the quantum effect and microtubules and bioelectrical signals within the CNS and all that stuff produce such experiences? Did your distinguished guests answer that fundamental question? That's the bottom line of the topic. The rest is speculation at best. In any case, I like your serious approach to scientific issues. But let's remember what Richard Feynman said about scientists that talk about non-scientific things. Actually, I would generalize it to scientists talking about anything outside their narrow area of expertise. Just see Anil Seth, who claimed that the problem of life in biology has not been solved, but it dissolved. That's a gross misrepresentation of reality at best. Dissolved? Did Dr Lee Cronin get the Evo2.0 OoL $10M Prize announced at the Royal Society a few years ago? Did he split it with Dr Jack Szostak by any chance? Did they share it with Sara Walker? I think they should give the prize to Anil Seth for dissolving the problem. Can we try to be more careful when we say anything? It's so shameful that otherwise distinguished scientists talk so much nonsense. Any statement said by a scientist is not necessarily scientific. This is a good example of that. Nonsense remains nonsense regardless of who says it. Sir Penrose should stick to his CCC theory and that should be enough to stay busy in academics.
