Superhuman Genesis: The Physics of Awareness (First Principle)

in #consciousness7 years ago

This first entry is meant to set the cornerstone of a foundation in place. There is presently a large void between spirit and science, and it is centered on the seemingly mysterious relationship between mind and matter within the nervous system. For example, the nervous system transmits a measurable electrical current and this has been clearly shown to have a one-to-one relationship with the biological data stream of sensations. But how does this stream of electrical information "cause" sensation/awareness/consciousness?

The problem here is that everyone is looking for a relationship between two, seemingly different forces; and therefore there "must" be some process that --no doubt extremely complex-- then creates the phenomenon of awareness, like the end product of some assembly line. But this kind of thinking leads into a paradox: how then, does the system sense or "know" that the phenomenon, "sensation" has been produced... which, of course, requires another process! --and so on... resulting in an endless series of nested processes. This method of reasoning goes nowhere, and explains why the problem of consciousness has yet to be solved by the linear, cause-and-effect thought processes of modern science.

So let's try an experiment and ask: What if this is a misinterpretation and there is no cause and effect here? What if sensory awareness is NOT a separate phenomenon? It means that, when we are looking at the flow of electromagnetic forces within the nervous system, we are ALREADY looking at the flow of sensations! Or in other words, to formulate this observation as a principle: PRINCIPLE #1: Sensation is an INHERENT QUALITY of Electromagnetic Force.

Think about the implications. The most interesting thing about a truly integrated world view, is that it is self-verifying! Therefore, in each proceeding post, I will progressively build up a logical progression of nonlinear reasoning to expand on our collective awareness.
