Athenes Theory Of Everything
The following documentory presents new developments in Neuroscience
and a solution to the many current unsolved problems in physics.
While it keeps clear of metaphysical correlations
and is solely focused on scientificaly verifiable data,
it also has philosophical reprecassions pertaining to life, death and the origin of the universe.
Due to it’s many layers and density in presentation,
it may require multiple viewings to fully comprehend its implications,
even though considerable effort has been made,
to simplify the complex scientific concepts that are discussed.
Furthermore I would like to thank the author
for allowing me to follow and report on his work
as he wanted to remain dedicated to his research
and avoid becoming involved in its media coverage.

Chapter 1
God is in the Neurons
The human brain is a network of approximately one hundred billion neurons.
Different experiences create different neural connections
which bring about different emotions.
And depending on which neurons get stimulated
certain connections become stronger and more efficient
while others may become weaker.
This is what’s called neural placicity.
Someone who trains to be a muscisian
will create stronger neural connections that link
the two hemispheres of the brain in order to be musically creative.
Virtually any sort of talent or skill can be created through training.
Rudiger Gamm, who was a self-admitted ’hopeless student’,
used to fail at basic maths and went on to train his abilities
and became a famous ’human calculator’
capable of performing extremely complex mathematics.
Rationality and emotional resilience work the same way.
These are neural connections that can be strengthened.
Whatever you are doing at any time, you are physically modifying your brain to become better at it.
Since this is such a foundational mechanism of the brain,
being self-aware can greatly enrich our life experience.
Part 1: Social Neuroscience
Specific neurons and neurotransmitters, such as norepinephrine,
trigger a defensive state when we feel that our thoughts have to be protected from the influence of others.
If we are then confronted with with differences in opinion,
the chemicals that are released in the brain are the same ones
that try to ensure our survival in dangerous situations.
In this defensive state,
the more primitive part of the brain interferes with rational thinking
and the limbic system can knock out most of our working memory,
physically causing ’narrow-mindedness’.
We see this in the politics of fear, in the strategy of poker players
or simply when someone is stubborn in a discussion.
No matter how valuable an idea is,
the brain has trouble processing it when it is in such a state.
On a neural level, it reacts as if we’re being threatened,
even if this threat come from harmless opinions or facts
that we may otherwise find helpful and could rationally agree with.
But when we express ourselves and our views are appreciated,
these ’defence chemicals’ decrease in the brain
and dopamine neurotransmission activates the reward neurons,
making us feel empowered and increasing our self-esteem.
Our beliefs have a profound impact on our body chemistry,
this is why placebos can be so effective.
Self-esteem or self-belief is closely linked to the neurotransmitter serotonin.
When the lack of it takes on severe proportions,
it often leads to depression, self-destructive behavior or even suicide.
Social validation increases the levels of dopamin and serotonin in the brain
and allows us to let go of emotional fixations and become self-aware more easily.
Part 2
Part 2: Mirror Neurons & Consciousness
Social psychology often looks at the basic human need to fit in
and calls this the normative social influence.
When we grow up our moral and ethical compass is almost entirely forged by our environment.
So our actions are often a result of the validation we get from society.
But new developments in neuro-science
are giving us a better understanding of culture and identity.
Recent neurological research has confirmed the existance of empathetic mirror neurons.
When we experience an emotion or perform an action, specific neurons fire.
But when we observe someone else performing this action, or when we imagine it,
many of the same neurons will fire again, as if we were performing the action ourselves.
These empathy neurons connect us to other people allowing us to feel what others feel.
And since these neurons respond to our imagination,
we can experience emotional feedback as if it came from someone else.
This system is what allows us to self-reflect.
The mirror neuron does not know the difference between it and others
and is the reason why we are so dependant on social validation and why we want to fit in.
We are in a constant duality between how we see ourselves and how others see us.
This can result int confusion in terms of identity and self-esteem.
And brain scans show that we experience these negative emotions
even before we are aware of them.
But when we are self-aware, we can alter misplaced emotions,
because we control the thoughts that cause them.
This is a neural chemical consequence of how memories become labile when retrieved
and how they are restored through protein synthesis.
Self-observing profoundly changes the way our brain works.
It activates the self-regulating neo-cortical regions
which give us an incredible amount of control over our feelings.
Every time we do this, our rationality and emotional resilience are strenghened.
When we are not being self-aware, most of our thoughts and actions are impulsive
and the idea that we are randomly reacting and not making concious choices is instinctively frustrating.
The brain resolves this by creating explanations for our behavior
and physically rewriting it into our memories, through memory reconsolidation
making us believe, that we were in control of our actions.
This is also called backward-rationalization
and it can leave most of our negative emotions unresolved and ready to be triggered at any time.
They become a constant fuel to our confusion as our brain
will keep trying to justify why we behaved irrationally.
All this complex and almost schizophrenic subconscious behaviour
is the result of a vastly parallel distributed system in our brain.
There is no specific center of consciousness.
The appearance of a unity is in fact each of these separate circuits being enabled and being expressed
at one particular moment in time.
Our experiences are constantly changing our neural connections,
physically altering the parallel system that is our consciousness.
Direct modifications to this can have surreal consequences that bring into question
what and where consciousness really is.
If your left cerebral hemisphere were to be disconnected form the right,
as is the case in split-brain patients,
you would normally still be able to talk and think from the left hemisphere,
while your right hemisphere would have very limited cognitive capacities.
Your left brain will not miss the right part,
even though this profoundly changes your perception.
One consequence of this is that you can no longer describe the right half of someones face.
But you will never mention it, you will never see it as a problem,
or even realise that something has changed.
Since this affects more than just your perception of the real world,
and also applies to your mental images, it is not just a sensory-problem,
but a fundamental change in your consciousness.
Part 3
Part 3: God Is In The Neurons
Each neuron has a voltage
which can change when ions flow in or out of the cell.
Once a neuron voltage has reached a certain level,
it will fire an electrical signal to other cells,
which will repeat the process.
When many neurons fire at the same time, we can measure
these changes in the form of the wave.
Brainwaves underpin almost everything going on in our minds,
including memory attention and even intelligence.
As they oscillate on different frequencies they get classified in bands such as alpha, beta and gamma.
Each are associated with different task.
Brainwaves allow braincells to tune in to the frequency corresponding
to their particular task, while ignoring irrelevant signals,
similar to how radio homes in different waves to pick up radio stations.
The transfer of information between neurons becomes optimal
when their activity is synchronized.
This is the same reason why we experience cognitive dissonance,
the frustration caused by simultaneously holding in contradictory ideas.
Will is merely the drive to reduce dissonance between each of our neural circuits.
Evolution can be seen as the same process,
where nature tries to adapt, or 'resonate' with its environment.
By doing so, it evolves to the point where it becomes self-aware
and begin to ponder its own existence.
When person faces a paradox or wanting purpose
while thinking that human existence is meaningless,
cognitive dissonance occurs.
Throughout history, this has led many to reach for spiritual and religious guidance,
challenging science, as it failed to give answers existential questions, such as: "Why or what am I?"
Part 4
Part 4: I am Athene
"The mirror neuron does not know the difference between it and others".
The left cerebral hemisphere is largely responsible for creating a coherent belief system,
in order to maintain a sense of continuity towards our lives.
New experiences get folded into the pre-existing belief system.
When they don't fit, they are simply denied.
Counter-balancing this is the right cerebral hemisphere, which has the opposite tendency.
Whereas the left hemisphere tries to preserve the model,
the right hemisphere is constantly challenging the status quo.
When the discrepant anomalies become too large,
the right hemisphere forces a revision in our world view.
However, when our beliefs are too strong,
the right hemisphere may not succeed in overriding our denial.
This can create a profound confusion when mirroring others.
When the neural connections that physically define our belief system
are not strongly developed or active, then our consciousness, the unity of all the separate
active circuits at that moment, may consist mainly of activity relates to our mirror neurons.
Just as when we experience hunger,
our consciousness consists mostly of other neural interactions for consuming food.
This is not the result of some core “self” giving commands to different cerebral areas.
All the different parts of the brain become active and inactive and interact without a core.
Just as the pixels on a screen can express themselves as a recognizible image when in unity,
the convergence of neural interaction expresses itself as consciousness.
At every moment we are, in fact, a different image.
A different entity when mirroring, when hungry, when watching this video.
Every second we become different persons as we go through different states.
When we use our mirror neurons to look at ourselves, we may construct the idea of identity.
But if we do this with our scientific understandings, we see something completely different.
The neural synergies that produce our oscillating consciousness go far beyond our own neurons.
We are equally the result of cerebral hemispheres interacting electrochemically,
as we are of the senses connecting our neurons to other neurons in our environment.
Nothing is external. This is not a hypothetical philosophy,
it is the basic property of mirror neurons,
which allow us to understand outselves through others.
Seeing this neural activity as your own, while excluding the environment,
would be a misconception.
Our superorganismal features are also reflected in evolution,
where our survival as primates relied on our collective abilities.
Over time, the neocortical regions evolved to permit the modulation of primitive instincts
and the overriding of hedonistic impulses for the benefit of the group.
Our selfish genes have come to promote reciprocal social behaviors in superorganismal structures,
effectively discarding the notion of "survival of the fittest".
The brain`s neural activity resonates most coherently when there is no dissonance between
these advanced new cerebral regions and the older more primitive ones.
What we traditionally call “selfish tendencies” is only a narrow interpretation of
what self-serving behavior entrails, wherein human characteristics are
perceived through the flawed paradigm of identity… instead of through a scientific view on what we are:
a momentaly expression of an ever-changing unity with no center.
The psychological consequences of this as an objective belief system allow
self-awareness without attachment to the imagined self,
causing dramatic increases in mental clarity, social conscience,
self-regulation and what`s often described as 'being in the moment'.
The common cultural belief has mostly been that we need a narrative,
a diachronic view on our life, to establish moral values.
But with our current understandings of the empathic and social nature of the brain,
we now know that scientific view, with no attachment to our identity or “story”,
yields a far more accurate, meaningful and ethical paradigm than our anecdotal values.
This is logical, since our traditional tendency to define ourselves
as imaginary individualistic constants neurally wires
and designs the brain towards dysfunctional cognitive processes,
such as compulsive labeling and the psychological need to impose expectations.
Practical labeling underpins all forms of interactions in our daily lives.
But by psychologically labeling the self as internal and the environment as external,
we constrain our own neurochemical processes and experience a deluded disconnection.
Growth and its evolutionary side-effects, such as happiness and fulfilment,
are stimulated when we are not being labeled in our interactions.
We may have many different views and disagree with one another in practical terms,
but interactions that nevertheless accept us for who we are,
without judgment, are neuropsychological catalysts that wire
the human brain to acknowledge others and accept rationally verified belief systems without dissonance.
Stimulating this type of neural activity and interaction alleviates the need for distraction
or entertainment and creates cycles of constructive behavior in our environment.
Sociologists have established that phenomena such as obesity and smoking,
emotions and ideas, spread and ripple through society in much the same way
that electric signals of neurons are transferred when their activity is synchronized.
We are a global network of neurochemical reactions.
And the self-amplifying cycle of acceptance and acknowledgment,
sustained by the daily choices in our interactions,
is the chain-reaction that will ultimatly define our collective ability
to overcome imagined differences and look at life in the grand scheme of things.

Throughout Chiren's ongoing research, I have made a simplified
but comprehensive overview of his current findings.
This is my interpretation of the first few months of his work of unifying quantum physics and relativity.
While it may, at times be difficult to follow due to the subject matter's complexity,
it also has some philosophical implications, which are addressed in the epilogue.
Over the past century, many groundbreaking discoveries have led to
scientific paradigm shifts in our understanding of the world.
Einstein's theory of relativity revealed how time and space are the same fabric,
while Niels Bohr's research helped us understand
the building blocks of matter trough quantum physics,
a realm that only exists as "an abstract physical description".
Afterwards Lui De Broglie discovered all matter,
and not just photons or electrons has quantized wave/particle-duality.
These breakthroughs have led to new schools of thought about the nature of reality
and inspired popular metaphysical and pseudoscientific theories,
such as the human mind being able to command the universe through positive thinking.
However attractive, these theories have no verifiable evidence and can slow down scientific progress.
Einstein's law of special and general relativity applied in modern day technologies,
such as GPS satellites, where the accuracy of calculations would drift more than 7 miles per day
if consequences such as time dilation would not be taken into account.
Time dilation is best illustrated by how moving clocks run slower.
Other implications of relativity are:
length contraction, meaning that object in motion decrease in length and the relativity of simultaneity,
it is impossible to say in an absolute sense,
whether to events occur at the same time when they are separated in space.
Nothing can travel faster than the speed of light.
This means that is a bar of ten light-seconds long would be pushed forward,
it would take ten second before the action can take place on the other side.
Without this time interval of ten seconds, the bar does not exist in its entirety.
This is not due to our limitations as observers, but due to an inherent consequence of relativity,
where time and space are interconnected and can not exists without each other.
Quantum physics provides a mathematical description of much of the wave/particle-duality
and interactions of energy and matter.
It departs from classical physics, primarily at the atomic and sub-atomic scales.
The mathematical formulations are abstract and the implications are often non-intuitive.
A quantum is the minimum unit of any physical entity involved in an interaction.
The elementary particles are the basic building blocks of the universe.
They are the particles which all other particles are made of.
While, in classical physics we can always split things into smaller bits,
for a quanta this is impossible. As a result, the quantum world presents many unique phenomena
that can not be explained through classical laws,
such as quantum entanglement, the photoelectric effect. Compton scattering and many more.
There are many exotic interpretations of our quantized world.
The most widely accepted among physicists include the Copenhagen interpretation
and the many-worlds interpretation.
Current trends show substantial competition from alternative interpretations,
such as the holographic universe.
Part 1
Part 1: De Broglie's Equations
While both quantum physics and Einstein's laws of relativity are essential to
our scientific understandings of the universe,
there are many unresolved scientific problems and, thus far, no unifying theory.
Some of the current questions are:
- Why is there more observable matter than antimatter in the universe?
- What is the nature of the arrow of time?
- What is the origin of mass?
One of the most important keys to finding the answer to these problems are De Broglie's equations,
for which he was awarded the Noble Prize in physics.
This formula shows how all matter has a wave/particle-duality,
meaning that there are moments in which it behaves as a wave
and others where it behaves as a particle.
The formula combines Einstein's famous E=mc^2 (c squared) equation
with the quantized nature of energy.
Experimental evidence includes the interference pattern
of C60 fullerene molecules in a double-slit experiment.
The fact that our consciousness itself seems to be made up out of quantized particles
has been the subject of many mystical theories.
And while the relation between quantum mechanics and consciousness is unlikely to be as magical
as recent esoteric movies and literature claim, there is nevertheless a profound implication.
As De Broglie's equations apply to all matter, we can fundamentally establish that C equals hf,
where C stands for consciousness, h for the constant of planck and f for frequency.
C is responsible for what we experience as the now,
a quantized or minimum unit of and interaction.
The sum of all moments C uptil the current moment is what shapes concept of life.
This is not a philosophical or theoretical statement
but an inherent consequence of all matter and energy being quantized.
The formula shows how life and death are abstract constructions of C(now).
Another conseqeunce of De Broglie's equations is that the rate at which matter or energy fluctuates
and acts like a wave or a particle is relative to the frequency of the frame of reference.
Increases in frequency due to velocity are relative to others
and bring about phenomena such as time dilation.
The underlying reason is the uneffected experience of time relative to the reference frame
where space and time are properties of quanta and not the other way around.
Part 2
Part 2: Antimatter and Unperturbed Time
Large Hadron Collider (Switzerland)
Antiparticles are created everywhere in the universe where high-energy particle collisions take place.
This process is artifically simulated in particle accelerators.
When matter is created, antimatter is created simultaneously,
hence why the lack of antimatter is one of the biggest unsolved questions in physics to date.
When we trap antiparticles through electromagnetic fields, we can study their properties.
The quantum state of particles and antiparticles can be interchanged by applying
the charge conjugation [C], parity [P], and time reversal [T] operators.
To clarify:
If a physicist whose body was made of antimatter, would do experiments in a laboratory
also made of antimatter, using chemicals and substances made of antiparticles,
he would find almost exactly the same results as his matter counterpart.
But when they would merge, immense energy would be released proportional to their mass.
Very recently, Fermilab discovered how quanta such as mesons are switching
3 trillion times per second from matter to antimatter.
When we study the universe from a quantized frame of reference C,
we have to take into account all experimental evidence that applies to quanta.
This includes how matter and antimatter are created simultanously in particle accelerators
and how mesons switch back and forth between one and the other.
This has significant consequences when applied to C.
From a quantum perspective, every instance of C has an anti-C.
This explains the missing symmetry or antimatter in the universe
and is closely related to the arbitrary choice of emitter and absorber
in the Wheeler-Feynman Time-Symmetric Theory.
The unpertubed time t in the uncertainty principle is the required time or cycle for quanta to exist.
Similar as observerved in mesons, our personal experience of time or interval of the current moment
reaches its threshold when C is canceled out by its anti-C.
C's interpretation of this single self-annihilating moment is framed within an abstract arrow of time.
If we then want to define interaction and look at the basic properties of the wave/particle-duality of quanta
all interactions would consist of interference and resonance.
But since this isn't enough to explain the fundamental forces,
we're required to use different models.
This includes the standard model which mediates the dynamics of the known subatomic particles
through forcecarriers and Einstein's general relativity which describes macroscopic phenomena
such as the orbits of planets which follow a curvature or ellipse in space and helix in spacetime.
But Einstein's model of spacetime doesn't hold up on quantum levels
and the standard model needs additional fore carriers to explain the origin of mass.
Without success, a unification of both models
or theory of everything has been subjec of much research.
Part 3
Part 3: Theory of Everything
Quantum mechanics is merely mathematical descriptions
and their practical implications are often counter-intuitive.
Classical concepts such as length, time, mass and energy
can also be approached with similar descriptions.
By building De Broglie's equations, we can substitute these concepts with abstract vectors.
This is a probability-oriented approach towards the basic and already existing concepts in physics
that allows us to unify quantum mechanics with Einstein's relativity.
a) Quanta & Continuity
De Broglie's equations show how all reference frames are quantized,
including all matter and all energy.
Particle accelerators have demonstrated that matter and anti-matter are always created simultaneously.
The paradox of how reality can emerge from abstract building blocks that annihilate each other
can be explained by using these quanta as the frame of reference.
In a simplified analogy: we need to look at things through the eyes of a photon.
The reference frame is always a quantum and defines how spacetime is quantized,
when it 'increases' or 'decreases', spacetime 'increases' or 'decreases' as well.
This is reflected in quantum mechanics as the mathematical description of the probability amplitude
of the wave function or in Einstein's relativity as time dilation and length contraction.
For a quantized frame of reference, mass and energy can only be defined as abstract probabilities
or, if we want to be more concrete and establish a mathematical framework,
as vectors which can only exist when we assume an arrow of time.
They can be derived as resonance and interference with the reference frame,
which defines the minimum unit or spacetime constant c,
equivalent to the constant of planck in quantum mechanics.
Experiments show how conversion of matter into energy through its antimatter
brings about gamma rays with exact opposite momentum.
What seems to be a conversion, is the ratio between opposite vectors interpreted as distance and time,
matter and antimatter, mass and energy or interference
and resonance within the abstract arrow of time C(now).
The sum of opposite vectors is always zero,
this is the reason for the symmetry or conversation laws in physics
or why, at the speed of c, time and space are zero due to length contraction and time diletion.
A consequence is the Heisenberg uncertainty principle,
which states that certain pairs of physical properties,
such as position and momentum cannot be known simultaneously to high precision.
In a sense, a single particle is its own field.
This does not explain our sense of continuity, where C cancels itself out within its own required interval.
But when these vectors are exponentially amplified or accelerated
relative to and within the abstract arrow of time,
the underlying mathematical algorithms, also describing the fundamental forces,
can bring about a consistent reality, and have abstract building blocks.
This is why the harmonic motion equations are used in many fields of physics
involving periodic phenomena, such as quantum mechanic and electrodynamics
or why Einstein's equivelence principle, used to derive the model of spacetime,
states that there is no difference between gravity and acceleration.
Because gravity is only a force when interpreted relative to an oscillating frame of reference.
This can be illustrated with a logarythmic curve being reduced to a helix curve by the reference frame,
making objects spin and move in orbits.
Visually simplified, two amplified or growing apples will be interpreted to attract each other
when observed by an amplified reference frame, as the size seems unaffected.
The opposite occurs with interference.
In a simplified analogy, the increase or decrease in the size of objects as we get closer or further away,
is determined by the shift in vectors of the reference frame,
similar to how a radio homes in on different waves to pick up radio stations.
This also applies to the influence of gravity.
In essence, independently of any reference frame, there are no fundamental forces.
All interactions within our abstract continuity can be mathematically derived through
interference and resonance, as long as the ever changing
and fluctuating minimum unit or quantum, being the frame of reference, is taken into account.
Experimental evidence includes the unseen effect in the standard model,
where we can see the force-effect but not the actual force-carriers.
b) Quantum Superposition
The consistent continuity of reality doesn't require quanta to have any specific sequence in time.
A quantum is not subject to any notion of space or time
and can occupy all of its possible quantum states simultaneously.
This is called quantum superposition and has been demonstrated in experiment such as
the double slit experiment or quantum teleportation,
where every electron in the universe for example could be the exact same one.
The only requirement for an abstract arrow of time and consistent continuity or reality
is the algorithm describing the pattern or abstract sequence of vectors.
Since this continuity brings about our ability to be self-aware
it inherently makes us subject to its mathematical consequences: the fundamental laws of physics.
Interaction is merely an interpretation of what is essentially an abstract pattern.
This is why quantum mechanics can only provide mathematical descriptions,
since it can only describe patterns within infinite probabilities.
When probability is expressed as C,
the information necessary to describe the current moment or probability amplitude of C
is also what embodies the arrow of time.
The nature of the arrow of time is one of the biggest unsolved problem in physics
and has been responsible for many new popular interpretation.
The holographic principle for example, property of quantum gravity and string theories,
theorizes how the entire universe can be seen as an information structure of only two dimensions.
c) Time
We transitionally associate the notion of an arrow time with the sequence of events
that experience through the arrangement of short-term and long-term memories.
We cam only have memories about the past not about the future and we've always assumed
that this reflects the flow of time.
Scientist only began to question this logic when discoveries in quantum mechanics demonstrated
that some phenomena are not bound by our notion of time and that our concept of it is nothing more
than our perception of the change in observable values.
This is also reflected in time dilation and length contraction,
which are part of the reason why Einstein established that time and space are the same fabric.
An absolute sense, the notion of time does not differs from the notion of distance.
Seconds are equal to light-seconds but cancel eachother out.
To clarify: With distance and time being each other's opposites,
the passing of time can be interpreted as distance that the hands of a clock travel
as they move in a direction that is opposite to time.
As they move forward in distance, they effectively move backwards in what we could call time.
This is also why any single separate minimum unit of experience
is always instantly annihilated within a timeless now.
The understanding sets the record straight between wave function collapse and quantum decoherence.
Concepts such as life and death are mere intellectual constructs.
And any speculative spiritual idea of an afterlife that take place in a realm
where the rigid mathematical underpinning of this reality come to an end are equally fabricated.
An important cosmological consequence is that the big bang theory,
where the universe is traced back to one point by looking at the past, is a misconception.
The traditional assumption of spacetime, where space is three-dimensional
and time plays the role of a fourth dimension is inaccurate.
If we would want to study the origin of the universe we would actually have to look "forward",
since Cnow's time vector direction is opposite to the arrow of distance,
from which we perceive an expending universe.
Although this temporal mapping of the universe will only yield abstract concepts
with no relation to its quantum underpinnings.
Experimental evidence includes the accelerating expanding universe,
following what is known to be an inverse or time-reversed blackhole metric,
as well as many problems related to the big bang theory such as the horizon problem.
d) Neurological Implications
These derivations could bring up questions about free will,
since awareness seems to only take place after the action within our perception of time.
Most neurological investigations that have shed light on this question show
that action is indeed taken before becoming conscious of it.
But a deterministic point of view is based on an erroneous concept of time, as is illustrated
by the mathematical probability descriptions in quantum mechanics.
These understandings will be relevant in future neurological research,
since they show how any neural circuit is a vector with direction,
underpinning cognitive dissonance and interference or resonance within C.
The ability understand and consciously alter these directions,
acquired trough billions of years of evolution,
confirms how important our belief system are in expending our awareness
and how they affect our working memory
which is responsible for the extent to which we can make connections
and for the neural processes that create meaning.
It also explains how artificial awareness will require a network of independent processors
instead of linear sequence of complex algorithms.
e) A Limited Interpretation
Athene's grand unification is one solution that unifies quantum physics and Einstein's theory of relativity.
While it answers many problems in physics such as the ones listed here,
it is my limited interpretation of his first months of scientific research.
What ever the outcome, it is clear that we have entered an era where science is open to everyone.
And is we can preserve unfiltered access to a neutral internet, we can test the validity of our ideas,
we can enhance our imagination by making new correlations,
and we can be part of the evolution of our understandings of the universe and of the mind.
Epilogue
In quantum mechanics we have learned to approach reality differently,
and see everything as probabilities instead of certainties.
In a mathematical sense anything is possible.
As well as in science as in our daily lives, the extent to which we can calculate
or figure out probabilities is determined by our intellectual capability to recognize patterns.
The less bias we are, the clear we can identify these patterns
and base our actions on reasonable probabilities.
Since it's in the very nature of our left brain's hemisphere to deny ideas
that do not fit into our current paradigm, the more attached we are to belief system,
the less able we are to make conscious choices for ourselves.
But by observing this process, we expand our awareness and enhance our free will.
It is said that wisdom comes with age, but with openness and skepticism,
the key principle of the scientific method,
we don't need decades of trial and error to sort out which of our convictions may be improbable.
The question is not whether our beliefs are right or wrong,
but whether or not being emotionally attached to them is more or less likely going to benefit us.
There is no such thing as a free choice while being emotionally attached to a belief system.
The moment we are self-aware enough to realize this,
we can truly work together to figure out the real odds of what will benefit us the most.
"The evolution of quantum mechanics has been one of unprecedented skeptical scrutiny towards our classical scientific paradigms. The self-awareness and willingness to revise our hypotheses, which are constantly challenged in science and humanity, will determine the extent to which we gain deeper understanding into the mind and the universe."
