Schrödinger’s Cat? Schrodinger’s cat is one of the most important studies in the history of science. It is one of the cornerstones of the study of Quantum Mechanics. It is one of the hardest thing for people unfamiliar with science to understand when they are first presented with the problem, since it runs so counter […]
These Far-Out Theories About Human Consciousness Will Completely Blow Your Mind
Theories About Human Consciousness There are many crazy theories about how humans perceive consciousness. One of the great things about the subject of human consciousness is that since so much of it is misunderstood, or not understood at all, people are able to make up all sorts of crazy theories about what it means […]
My Bunk-Bashing Diatribe at a Deepak Chopra Conference
The author of the book “The End of Science,” John Horgan, explains how there may be no more large breakthroughs in scientific study. He talks about individual fields of science, like physics, neuroscience, and technology, and specific theories within these fields, like string theory, and the concept of multiple, parallel universes. He notes that today […]
Does Consciousness Create the Universe?
Does Consciousness Create the Universe? Quantum Mechanics is a field of study that is changing the very nature of our relationships with the world around us. Many things studied using Quantum Mechanics produce different outcomes than what would be expected using our traditional scientific understandings. It’s almost as if we are playing by a […]
Consciousness, Reality, and The Simulation Hypothesis
“The Simulation Hypothesis,” a film by Kent Forbes, investigates the concept of reality-as-a-simulation. The film argues that, when considering recent findings in modern physics, the universe is best understood as a sort of simulation. Refreshingly, it does not portray the “simulation” of reality as some sort of alien video game, but blends the reality-as-a-sim […]
The science of consciousness: Why do we need consciousness science?
Consciousness is the idea that people are aware of themselves and what they are thinking. There are lots of different theories as to how this can happen and how we might need to study it. People have proposed all kinds of different theories and some of them have been explored further and some have […]
A Simple Test To See How Close You Are To Enlightenment – THE BUDDHIST INFORMATION

It is in some ways the highest state of being one can achieve. While it is a very spiritual idea, now science might […]
The Illusion Of Time; Does Time Exist In Fundamental Reality?
Does Time Exist In Fundamental Reality? What does the study of quantum mechanics teach us about the concept of time? Is it possible that our linear notions of the progression of time are merely a product of convention and not necessarily grounded in science? In fact, the discipline struggles to define time in absolute […]
Quantum Physics Proves That Death Is An Illusion
Death Is An Illusion? Does Quantum Physics prove that death is an illusion? Life and death are some of the most obvious description in our world. It should be pretty clear whether or not something is alive or dead. But while it may seem obvious, like most things in life, quantum studies are changing […]
