quantum mind
Unless otherwise stated, all writing herein is original.
I am going to speak philosophically, poetically-romantically,
then I am going to share the same modality of ideas,
rationalised through quantum science.
THE ROMANTIC NOTION
And yet, within you, within your soul,
your mind, heart and body,
are all the answers of
the universe.
Within everything that you have felt and observed
is your own inherent, timeless wisdom
and your sense of identity.
THE PHILOSOPHY
The trouble with daily life,
is that we have so much
noise around us.
The noise of all the expectations of our culture and of our time.
The prejudices and beliefs that are pushed on to and expected of us.
"knowing".
You know what is right for you.
You know what is good for you.
You know what you want.
You know what makes
you happy.
You know what is right and wrong
for yourself and for others.
All of this knowledge and experience that you have, this is your own wisdom. Your experience may just be a single perspective, or an aspect or a fragment of wisdom. Because what you know is based on the empirical evidence of your life-experience, it stands to reason that what you know from what you have experienced, also stands to be true.
We are together, alone.
Yet at the same time, this knowledge you have from your experience is also collective, because it also stands to reason, that if there are laws of the universe that apply to you, these same rules also apply to others. Regardless of who you are, how you are or where you are, you are therefore having an individual experience that is also part of the collective experience of all human beings. This is why and how we can both exist as an individual experience of reality, while also being part of the collective experience.
In the past we tapped into collective wisdom by congregating into villages, sharing our wisdom through stories and songs. Globalisation and the internet, could have created a globalization of collective wisdom. What has really happened is that silos have formed due to digital borders that have isolated information regionally. If you are in China or Russia, you will not see what I see and therefore can not gain my perspective. Neither can I gain yours.
THE PSYCHOLOGY
Perception is reality
If you get the chance, study the allegory of Plato's Cave, which speaks to how and why we do not see things as they actually are.
Feminist essayist, Anais Nin, is often credited from the literary work, "Seduction of the Minotaur" for her quote:
"We do not see things as they are, we see them as we are."
However this wisdom has much more ancient origins
“We do not see things as they are. We see things as we are.”— Rabbi Shemuel ben Nachmani, as quoted in the Talmudic tractate Berakhot (55b.)
Information overload causes a
kind of knowledge blindness.
If you live in a city of lights, it is not possible at all to see the stars. This is due to light pollution. We have this same challenge with receiving too much information.
We can not see the truth of ourselves, amidst the overpowering noise and the imposition of the will of others. With billions of media messages and incorrect 'wisdom', we must each find a way to return to being sovereign and getting back to basics by learning to understand and trust ourselves.
As we move away from all the noise, suddenly, due to the absence of light, the light that you want and need to see is so much clearer.
Therefore we need the silence to hear our sound.
We need the darkness to see our light.
We need external mirrors
to see internal self.
Perhaps we could benefit from closing our eyes, benefit from listening. Yet we only just now learning that relying too much on the perceptions of classical reality, perceived by five very weak biological sensors, eyes, ears, touch, taste and smell, can not explain the universe.
Spiritual systems of knowledge and wisdom each suggest that human beings have the capacity to be and to do more, in terms of how we can open up our perceptions.
THE SOCIOLOGICAL
I can't claim to "have" philosophy or wisdom, because I come to these as an empty vessel, seeking to be filled with each wisdom that I have not found for myself, not because others have it and I don't, but because I can not see myself clearly. I need to commune with others who become reflective mirrors of who I am and what I know.
We are all the same when it comes to wisdom. We each need a significant other to "mirror" and "reflect" our continually evolving identity. This is why no human being can become complete on their own. The idea of completeness through individuality is falsehood.
We are each a symbiosis, a collective of experiences that form our sense of identity. Every person we have ever met, every book that we have ever read, has crystallized into what and who we now know as our sense of self.
Yet sense of self should always be a sense of belonging, of family and become collective as a participant in the broader congregation of humanity. This congregation of human spiritual energy is where we came from and it is where we are going.
THE QUANTUM
"It (Quantum Computing) will change the world, because, you know there are only two worlds actually. There is the classical world which our senses address, and then there is the world that we have only known about for a one hundred years, since Niels Bohr, basically. The quantum mechanical world. We are the fortunate moment in history, where we are going to move our intellect from one to the other. So the idea that nothing will come of it, is totally absurd."
Michael Freedman, Head of Station Q, Microsoft Quantum Mechanics speaking to Quantum Mechanics and the creation of nano tubes required to create quantum computing.
Which is like this.
A normal computer will find it's way out of a maze by sending a single scout down each path, until it finds it's way out.
A Quantum computer will take all paths simultaneously and know the answer almost instantly.
Where this leads us is to reflect on the fact that the way that we advance human thinking currently, is linear. We use trial and error to learn, which is an arduous and inefficient way to learn.
Non-linear, Quantum Thinking, goes down all paths simultaneously. Yet it is not possible for a person to walk down all paths at the same time.
MULTIPLICITY IS THE FOUNDATION OF QUANTUM THINKING. THIS IS THE CAPACITY OF THE INDIVIDUAL TO MAINTAIN A SMALL ASPECT OF INDIVIDUALITY, WHILE ALSO PARTICIPATING IN THE COLLECTIVE.
THE PINNACLE OF WHICH, IS THE CAPACITY OF THE INDIVIDUAL TO WORK THROUGH OTHERS. WHICH IS HOW ONE TO MANY, BECOMES MANY TO ONE AND THUS, QUANTUM.
BECAUSE WITHIN A COLLECTIVE, UNIFIED AND CONNECTION GLOBAL HUMAN CONSCIOUSNESS, THE QUANTUM IS BY DEFINITION, THE INDIVIDUAL.
WHO IS CONNECTED THROUGH BIOCHEMCIALLY PRODUCED ENERGY, TO AN UNSEEN MATRIX OR BIO MAGNETIC FRAMEWORK, SO SMALL AS TO BE IMMEASURABLE.
TOO SMALL THAT IS, UNTIL THE ADVENT OF QUANTUM PHYSICS TO QUANTIFY THE UNQUANTIFIABLE.
Humanity becomes like a Quantum Computer, when we apply the principle of multiplicity, which is the capacity to work through others and learn from the collective experience.
In the past, the barrier to this has been bandwidth, we simply could not take in enough information. Yet the neural networks of the human mind have the innate capacity for processing every idea at the same time.
We are quantum computers
by our inherent nature.
If we turn towards our inner world, we are able to allocate attention to perceive the smallest component of the universe that we occupy, by first becoming intricately aware of our own biology. Yet if we remain trapped in the ideology of the inherently isolated and self-centered individual, we will continue to struggle to become collective. We can not remain carnally natured and achieve higher mindedness. Neither can we understand the nuances of nature, without first understanding the intricacies of our own biochemical and biological nature. For example: understanding the Pineal Gland, the Amygdala and Gut Bacteria, each of which has a fundamental sensory role that informs human intelligence and identity. We come to understand that what we know as identity and consciousness, is in and of itself, a symbiosis of collective sensory inputs that congregate to form an aggregated knowledge base. Our internal neural networks simultaneously and instantaneously process all of these data points and interpret this in real time, in much the same way that a quantum computer does.
Nothing within a collective
loses it's UNIQUE individuality.
In fact, it is because of uniqueness, that each part of the collective can interface with other parts to becomes exactly what it is. Each part suddenly fits into a matrix of other unique parts forming a great humanity machine, each unique, each fitting perfectly in their uniqueness, to become collective.
QUANTUM MIND
The quantum mind, is therefore a mind that seeks to be authentic as an individual, then connect to the collective to further the collective. We ought to first become authentic by not trying to fit in or adapt to the collective, but rather, be authentically who we are. Then we can join the collective as we really are. Beyond which, we can learn to work through others to share what it is that we are, to help as many within the collective as possible. Lets call this our capacity to bless others. To harmonise our life with others by respecting our uniqueness.
