Well, I 've been looking into the ACT of consciousness recognizing "matter" as another form of theoretical physics. Came across the work of one Dr. Amit Goswami, Ph.D. (professor of physics at the University of Oregon and a member of its Institute of Theoretical Science) who is looking at the Aspect's Experiments and it makes me wonder....which came first...."the chicken or the egg"?

Because according to these experiments (and others) CONSCIOUSNESS has a direct bearing on physicality and matter. From his own perspective he is developing a new paradigm that he calls “monistic idealism." It's the view that consciousness, not matter, is the foundation of everything that is.

He says: (Amit Goswami)
"For many years quantum physics had been giving indications that there are levels of reality other than the material level. How it started happening first was that quantum objects—objects in quantum physics—began to be looked upon as waves of possibility. They cannot be called waves in space and time at all—they have properties which do not jibe with those of ordinary waves. So they began to be recognized as "waves in potential", waves of possibility, and the potential was recognized as transcendent....beyond matter somehow.

But the fact that there is transcendent potential was not very clear for a long time. Then Aspect’s experiment verified that this is not just theory, there really is transcendent potential, objects really do have connections outside of space and time—outside of space and time! What happens in this experiment is that an atom emits two quanta of light, called photons, going opposite ways, and somehow these photons affect one another’s behavior at a distance, without exchanging any signals through space. Notice that: without exchanging any signals through space but instantly affecting each other. Instantaneously. "

This type of thinking has fascinated me for years and explains bi-location, ESP and certain forms of material creation. I'm sure this is out of your interest Nick, but it opens the door to explaining the unexplainable for me.
