Physicists Say Consciousness May Be A State Of Matter: The Non-Physical Is Indeed Real

“Looking for consciousness in the brain is like looking in the radio for the announcer.” – Nassim Haramein, director of research for the Resonance Project

It’s been more than one hundred years since Max Planck, the theoretical physicist who originated quantum theory, which won him the Nobel Prize in Physics, said that he regards “consciousness as fundamental,” that he regards “matter as a derivative from consciousness,” and that “everything we talk about, everything that we regard as existing, postulates consciousness.”

Physicists Say Consciousness May Be A State Of Matter: The Non-Physical Is Indeed Real



Do you think that your conscious mind is merely a function of a brain activity, or is it a non-physical material substance?


In spite of the fact that it has not been demonstrated starting at yet, I trust that "awareness" is a rising procedure coming about because of cerebrum movement. This is for two reasons. One, no non-physical substance has ever been demonstrated to exist. Starting at yet, we have had the capacity to characterize each and every thing that we have ever found in the Universe as a molecule or the like. Two, the possibility that the "mind" is a consequence of cerebrum action is especially with regards to what we do think about the sensory system. Diverse cerebrum structures are in charge of various parts of our psychological states and when those mind districts are harmed we lose their usefulness. 

That was the logical clarification. In any case, the possibility of "non-physical substances" is on a very basic level outside the domain of science, since it could have no possible impact on the physical world. 


So we will currently think about this from a philosophical perspective. 

When we talk about cognizance, we regularly allude to the experience of qualia, characterized as "the inward and abstract segment of sense observations, emerging from incitement of the faculties by marvels." There is a thought in rationality called Solipsism, which expresses that no one known to man can be demonstrated to exist with the exception of oneself. This is on the grounds that activities coming about because of saw qualia are unclear from activities coming about because of customized reactions. The thing is however, that this works the other way as well. It's similarly as substantial to state that oneself can't be demonstrated to exist due to the way that qualia-driven activities are undefined from customized activities. 

You're not going to find a particular target solution to this inquiry in light of the fact that the idea of the inquiry takes into consideration answers outside of that which is falsifiable or provable. What is likely is that as time walks on Neuroscience will keep on finding instruments by which the different parts of awareness work, and the quantity of properties accessible to be ascribed to some non-physical substance will recoil. Notwithstanding, science can't demonstrate that something has a clarification without first finding that clarification, so we won't have confirmation that cognizance is a physical procedure until we comprehend said process. 

Awareness? What is that? 

There is a major trouble that emerges when we guarantee we are cognizant. Where, in the transformative tree, does it begin? Microscopic organisms, plants, worms, warm blooded animals? Just those with a sensory system? Were dinosaurs cognizant? 

As you see, there is no agreement of what awareness is and where it applies, not to mention what causes it. There are a great deal of, state, "discourses" that can be found here: awareness. 

I think the marvels begins from "complexification". My hypothesis — on the off chance that I may give that name to my train of considerations — is the accompanying: 

At the point when a specific data framework advances, it picks up consciousness of it presence, which means it can take choices about it possess working, with expanding unpredictability. Making a similarity with programming, consider a program that includes two numbers and afterward, around one executing propelled AI (I figure some Quora calculations might be genuine models). The first has no proof it exists, while the second one has criticism which triggers basic leadership. So our dear Quora calculations by one way or another can recognize the reality they exist, or at the end of the day, they know about themselves. 

So also, as living life forms can be thought as data frameworks, they continue picking up proof of their reality while developing; and mindfulness in a life form with sensorial info implies additionally outer mindfulness — together, cognizance. Subsequently, the nearness of awareness isn't twofold (for example it is possible that you have it or you don't), however more slope looking and apparently expanding in the developmental tree. 

So this "property" of, presently, living beings would not rise up out of mind movement or a metaphysical substance, however increment with the complexification of improvements handling and reaction. 


In that way, microscopic organisms have certain mindfulness, just as worms, yet irrelevantly little when contrasted with people'. 

When you consider the fundamental structure of PCs, in particular rationale entryways, and layers of deliberation, it tends to be perceived how exceptionally basic procedures can be joined to make incredibly modern ones. In the event that we make an interpretation of this to the domain of science, similar standards keep on applying, reasoning that awareness is only a modernity of the connection with the interior and outer condition. 

As should be obvious, my "hypothesis" is a long way from complete, along these lines, if no one thumps it down in the remarks previously, I will total it and connection it here. 

I am not a researcher, simply entranced by awareness and the cerebrum… 

I trust, in the same way as other individuals do, however without logical evidence that our awareness isn't made by, or existing because of our minds, rather, that our cognizance exists paying little respect to our cerebrum. There have been a large number of individuals who have passed on, left their bodies, had mind boggling encounters (their awareness) in a totally extraordinary domain and afterward returned to depict their experience as 'increasingly genuine' than their life here. These encounters have been recorded for quite a long time (Tibetan Book of the Dead, Egyptian Book of the Dead and into present day) and these encounters have frightening likenesses. Up to this point, all or most neuroscientists trusted that close demise encounters are brought about by the mind doing bizarre things as it bites the dust. However, new learning recommends increasingly more that our cognizance isn't made by the cerebrum, and exists fine and dandy without it. 

It's actually simple to discover books and meetings with individuals who have had this experience and accept 100% that their cognizance exists past, and notwithstanding our physical bodies. I think whether close passing encounters were altogether clarified by the confounded and kicking the bucket cerebrum, for what reason would almost 100% of close demise encounters be so comparative (paying little heed to race, religion, nationality, and so on.)? Likewise 99.9% of these encounters have been depicted as overwhelmingly constructive, leaving the individual with a sentiment of overpowering harmony and love and comfort and frequently changing that individual when they return. On the off chance that it is only that our cerebrums are befuddled while biting the dust, neurotransmitters terminating, substance discharges, and so on., for what reason would these encounters be so comparative and constructive and nitty gritty, meeting individuals they realized who have kicked the bucket, and so on.? 

It's the documentation of out of body encounters (among numerous different things) that persuaded me regarding this conviction. Patients who were insensible, or even mind dead have portrayed things that they saw and heard while their awareness was expelled from their body. One patient, while in a state of insensibility, depicts her experience of moving down the lobby in the medical clinic, seeing her mom and grandma in the cafeteria, tuning in to them talk about her, stressing over her. At the point when the lady woke from her trance like state, she portrayed the discussion between her mom and grandma precisely. Another patient who was cerebrum dead rose from their body and up to the clinic rooftop and seeing one red sneaker. At the point when the patient woke, she informed the medical caretaker regarding her experience and the attendant went up to the rooftop and found a solitary red sneaker. Furthermore, there are countless these accounts. 

There are researchers concentrating this now. They trust that with logical research, they will almost certainly in the end demonstrate that our awareness exists without a physical body.

He is basically saying that the non-physical ‘substance’ of consciousness is directly intertwined with what we perceive to be our physical material world in some sort of way, shape or form, that consciousness is required for matter to be, that it becomes after consciousness… and he’s not the only physicist to believe that.


“It was not possible to formulate the laws of quantum mechanics in a fully consistent way without reference to consciousness.” – Eugene Wigner, theoretical physicist  and mathematician. He received a share of the Nobel Prize in Physics in 1963
Scientists have been urging the mainstream scientific community, which today is littered with scientific fraud and industry influence as well as invention secrecy, to open up to a broader view regarding the true nature of our reality.
“The day science begins to study non-physical phenomena, it will make more progress in one decade that in all of the previous centuries of its existence.” – Nikola Tesla
Not long ago, a group of internationally recognized scientists came together to stress this fact and how it’s overlooked by the mainstream scientific community. 

It’s ‘post-material” science, an area of study dealing with the ‘non-physical realm, and it’s challenging the modern scientific worldview of materialism that’s dominated mainstream science. 

The idea that matter is not the reality is finally starting to gain some merrit. The summary of this report presented at the International Summit On Post-Materialist Science can be found here.
“The modern scientific worldview is predominantly predicated on assumptions that are closely associated with classical physics. Materialism—the idea that matter is the only reality — is one of these assumptions.

“A related assumption is reductionism, the notion that complex things can be understood by reducing them to the interactions of their parts, or to simpler or more fundamental things such as tiny material particles.” – Manifesto for a Post-Materialist Science
MIT’s Max Tegmark,a theoretical physicist at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology in Cambridge, is one of the latest to attempt explaining why he believes consciousness is a state of matter. 

He believes that consciousness arises out of a certain set of mathematical conditions, and that there are varying degrees of consciousness – just as certain conditions are required to create varying states of vapor, water, and ice. 

As PBS emphasized, “understanding how consciousness functions as a separate state of matter could help us come to a more thorough understanding of why we perceive the world the way we do.” (source)

Tegmark describes this as “perceptronium,” which he defines as the most general substance that feels subjectively self-aware and this substance should not only be able to store information, but do it in a way that form a unified, indivisible, whole.
“The problem is why we perceive the universe as the semi-classical, three dimensional world that is so familiar. When we look at a glass of iced water, we perceive the liquid and the solid ice cubes as independent things even though they are intimately linked as part of the same system. How does this happen? Out of all possible outcomes, we do we perceive this solution?” – Tegmark (source)
This new way of thinking about consciousness has been spreading throughout the physics community at an exponential rate within the past few years. 

Considering consciousness as an actual state of matter would be huge, considering the fact that modern day definitions of matter require a substance to have mass, which consciousness does not have. 

What it does have, however, is some sort of effect on our physical material world, and the extent of this effect and how far it goes is the next step for science.

The quantum double slit experiment is a very popular experiment used to examine how consciousness and our physical material world are intertwined. It is a great example that documents how factors associated with consciousness and our physical material world are connected in some way.

One potential revelation of this experience is that “the observer creates the reality.” A paper published in the peer-reviewed journal Physics Essays by Dean Radin, PhD, explains how this experiment has been used multiple times to explore the role of consciousness in shaping the nature of physical reality.

The study found that factors associated with consciousness “significantly” correlated in predicted ways with perturbations in the double slit interference pattern. (source)
“Observation not only disturbs what has to be measured, they produce it. We compel the electron to assume a definite position. We ourselves produce the results of the measurement.” (source)
For a physicist to brush off the fact that understanding consciousness is necessary for the advancement and understanding of the nature of our reality is not as common as it used to be but, despite the empirical success of quantum theory, even the suggesting that it could be true as a description of our reality is greeted with harsh cynicism, incomprehension and even anger.
“A fundamental conclusion of the new physics also acknowledges that the observer creates the reality. As observers, we are personally involved with the creation of our own reality. Physicists are being forced to admit that the universe is a 'mental' construction.“

Pioneering physicist Sir James Jeans wrote: 
“The stream of knowledge is heading toward a non-mechanical reality; the universe begins to look more like a great thought than like a great machine. Mind no longer appears to be an accidental intruder into the realm of matter, we ought rather hail it as the creator and governor of the realm of matter. Get over it, and accept the inarguable conclusion. The universe is immaterial-mental and spiritual.”  – R.C. Henry, Professor of Physics and Astronomy at Johns Hopkins University ,  “The Mental Universe” ; Nature 436:29,2005) (source)
