Or does the very concept of a universe depend upon its presence? Does consciousness merely perceive reality, or does reality depend upon it? Did consciousness simply emerge as an effect of evolution? Or was it, in some sense, always "out there" in the world? These questions and more, are addressed in this special edition.

Book excerpt: Quantum physics is increasingly revealing itself as one of the most fascinating and mysterious scientific fields of our time. But what if this revolutionary theory embraces an even deeper dimension? Some scholars argue that quantum physics can unlock the secrets of consciousness, opening a new window into the very nature of the universe. This book investigates how quantum physics is intertwined with the concept of universal consciousness and what implications this may have for our understanding of reality. Quantum physics presents us with a panorama in which reality is not exactly as it appears to us. At the microscopic level, among subatomic particles, what we observe appears to be influenced by the simple act of observation. This is known as "the Observer's Paradox". This feature makes awareness a fundamental factor in understanding quantum reality. Another fascinating aspect of quantum physics is quantum entanglement. This is a property by which subatomic particles can become intrinsically connected, regardless of the distance that separates them. Some scholars argue that this phenomenon may suggest the existence of a universal consciousness, in which everything is interconnected. The book explores the theories that link quantum entanglement to consciousness and how new horizons in our understanding of reality can arise from this connection. The double-slit experiment is a classic of quantum physics that raises fascinating questions about the very nature of observation and intention. Recent studies argue that the mind of the observer could have a direct influence on the behavior of subatomic particles. This leads us to consider the role of conscious intention in creating reality and to explore the idea that consciousness is an active force in the universe itself. The convergence between quantum physics and spirituality is fertile ground for further research. Some argue that quantum physics can provide a scientific explanation of ancient Eastern philosophies, such as the idea of a unified field of consciousness. It is a perspective that leads to a deeper and more integrated vision of our role in the cosmos. Quantum physics invites us to reconsider the very nature of reality and embrace the idea that consciousness can play a central role in the universe. This book explains with great simplicity the secrets of quantum physics, to lead the reader towards an incredible opportunity for exploration and opening up to new frontiers of knowledge.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This discussion resulted from a dialogue which began some seven years ago between a physicist who specializes in astrophysics, general relativity, and the foundations of quantum theory, and a student of cultural history who had done post-doctoral work in the history and philosophy of science. Both of us at that time were awaiting the results of some experiments being conducted under the direction of the physicist Alain Aspect at the University of Paris-South. ! The experiments were the last in a series designed to test some predictions based on a mathematical 2 theorem published in 1964 by John Bell. There was no expectation that the results of these experiments would provide the basis for developing new technologies. The questions which the experiments were designed to answer concerned the relation ship between physical reality and physical theory in the branch of physics known as quantum mechanics. Like most questions raised by physicists which lead to startling new insights, they were disarmingly simple and direct. Is quantum physics, asked Bell, a self-consistent theory whose predictions would hold in a new class of experiments, or would the results reveal that the apparent challenges of quantum physics to the understanding in classical physics of the relationship between physical theory and physical reality were merely illusory? Answering this question in actual experiments could also, suggested Bell, lead to another, quite dramatic, result.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The classical mechanistic idea of nature that prevailed during the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries was essentially mindless: the physically described aspects of nature were asserted to be completely determined by prior physically described aspects alone, with conscious experiences entering only passively. In the last century these classical concepts were found inadequate. In the new quantum mechanics theory, conscious experiences enter into the dynamics in specified ways not fixed by physically described aspects alone.

Book excerpt: In this stimulating and timely book, Amit Goswami, PhD, shatters the widely popular belief held by Western science that matter is the primary "stuff" of creation and proposes instead that consciousness is the true foundation of all we know and perceive. His explanation of quantum physics for lay readers, called "a model of clarity" by Kirkus Reviews, sets the stage for a voyage of discovery through the common ground of science and religion, the entwined nature of mind and body, and our interconnectedness with all of creation.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A discussion of the implications for philosophy of recent experimental results that confirm some counterintuitive aspects of the way matter behaves. The authors show that a generalised principle of complementarity is pervasive not only in physical theories such as cosmological models of the universe, but also in the construction of all human realities. They discuss in detail Bells inequalities for quantum mechanical measurements as well as recent experiments which imply that even remote parts of the universe are "entangled." They go on to suggest that consciousness can no longer be divorced from the way science operates, and conclude by claiming that this entails a new way of understanding the universe - one that could obviate much of the current conflict between science and religion while providing at the same time a basis for valuation that is better suited for co-ordinating all human experience.
