EXPLORING the Conscious Awareness “FIELD”

Altering Access Consciousness to Achieve Non-local Awareness

The brain integrates the two signals, producing a sensation of binaural resonance.

Binaural resonance originates in the brainstem, in the superior olivary nuclei.

The binaural impuls is conveyed from each superior olivary nuclei to the reticular formation, which initiates changes in brainwave activity.

EXPLORING “THE FIELD” Altering Consciousness to Achieve

Non-local Awareness

Consciousness:an awareness of the surrounding world,

of the self, and of one’s thoughts and feelings

Conscious awareness, our first-person experience of reality, is a

balance . . .

level of arousal

cognitive content

Altering consciousness involves:

• changing the level of arousal,• changing cognitive content,• or both.

Level of Arousal

• Basic Rest Activity Cycle (BRAC)• Sleep Cycles• Other Ultradian Rhythms• Sensory Responses• Internal Feedback Loops

ERTAS

Conscious awareness is a balance . . .

level of arousal

cognitive content

Cognitive Content

• Social-Psychological Conditioning

• Mental Ability

The cortical attributes of consciousness are the result of:

Social-Psychological Conditioning

• Group Interaction• Guided Visual Imagery• Affirmation• Introspection• Reframing• etc.

Mental AbilityCognitive skills can be enhanced through educational processes:

• Directed Reading• Lectures• Multimedia Presentations• Planned Group Discussions• Practice• etc.

The Penrose - Hameroff model of "orchestrated objective reduction"

Ten Years Ago

Each tubulin molecule may switch between two (or more) conformations and, it is proposed, each tubulin can also exist in quantum superposition of both conformational states.

The Penrose - Hameroff model of “orchestrated objective reduction”

(Orch OR) proposes that:

• Quantum superposition/computation occur in microtubule automata within brain neurons.

• Tubulin subunits within microtubules act as qubits, switching between states on a nanosecond (10 -9 sec) scale governed by quantum London forces.

• Tubulin qubits interact computationally by nonlocal quantum entanglement according to the Schrodinger equation.

• Pre-conscious processing continues until the threshold for objective reduction (OR) is reached by E = h/T*.

*E is the gravitational self-energy of the superposed m ass separated from itself, h is Planck's constant divided by 2pi, and T is the coherence time until collapse occurs.

• At that instant collapse, or OR occurs which is an actual event in fundamental space-time geometry. This event selects a particular configuration of Planck-scale experiential geometry, enacting a “moment of awareness,” “occasion of experience,” or conscious event.

• A sequence of OR events provides a

forward flow of subjective time and "stream" of consciousness.

• During the pre-conscious quantum superposition/computation phase, tubulin oscillations are “tuned” and “orchestrated” by microtubule-associated proteins (MAPs), providing a feedback loop between the biological system and the quantum state (hence Orch OR).

“ tuned” and “orchestrated”

• The normal environmental milieu surrounding critical brain proteins (i.e., receptors, channels, tubulin, etc.) provide for ordinarily occurring London forces, protein conformational dynamics, and the superposition necessary for everyday conscious awareness.

• Certain environments (e.g., anesthetic gas molecules) associated with critical brain proteins prevent normally occurring London forces, protein conformational dynamics, and superposition necessary for consciousness. • Other environments promote and sustain superposition, expanding consciousness (e.g., psychedelic hallucinogens).

Microtubule Tubulins“ tuned” and “orchestrated”for non-local consciousness

• Quantum excitations/ordering of surrounding water to promote and sustain superposition (Jibu/Yasue/Hagan)

Microtubules vibrate (100-650 Hz) with nanometer displacement.

Geometric Arrays• Consciousness requires a critical

degree of quantum coherence in parallel arrayed neuronal microtubules (10 18 tubulin electrons).

• This critical degree allows a prediction as to what evolutionary level of neural complexity will result in consciousness.

“… geometry is the morphogenic structure behind reality itself, underlying even mathematics. … it is actually shape that generates all the laws of physics.”
