Abstract

Sir/Madam; Herewith are presented to you the first chapters in my studies on the constituents of the Mind, Vision, and ultimately of Reality. However, this ‘reality’ I speak of, in turn, reverts entirely back to the observer in question. This theoretical study inevitably leads us to some of the same attributes of the constituents of Mind and Vision to the reality and attributes of sub-atomic particles as per quantum laws. My interests are in the ‘constituents of the Mind’; questioning what are the fundamental properties that constitute the Mind of an individual in a specific timeframe, and how do the attributes of our Mind interact with our Self and the outside world? I find Constituents of the Mind act, interact, and function in certain circumstances exactly as the Quantum Physics laws governing electrons and sub-atomic particles interact with each other. For example, during the Mind constituents' interactions, the latter interactions can create and/or eliminate other Mind constituents, precisely as quantum laws can create or annihilate particles. Another example, whenever we observe/detect a photon, we will necessarily see a particle. Conversely, whenever we do not observe/detect a photon, we see a wave or field. Similarly, in this Mind Studies, I note, the closer the Observer concentrates on a specific point on an observed entity, the greater the abstraction will be [wavefunction]. Conversely, the less the observer focuses on a specific point on the observed entity, so the lesser abstraction of the latter becomes, in other words, it becomes so much more recognisable [particle-like]. Motivated by Feynman’s diagrams, this drove me to create novel notations to speed up our understanding of these intricate matters. We speak of the attributes of reality, consciousness, the Mind, and somehow, we miss one elemental ‘Mind dimension,’ and that is the dimension of ‘nothingness,’ wherein the Mind - and therefore our entire physicality - is rendered extinct during the time when we are not aware nor conscious. This ‘extinction’ I speak of is the state when the Mind has no thoughts, no feelings, no images – it is the person sleeping in a dreamless state. We can measure properties of all matter from astronomical entities down to the muon. Examples abound, yet they are not seen as relevant; what is the reality and the attributes of our Mind when we are thinking? What are the attributes of our Mind when we blank out? What are the attributes of our Mind when we are dreaming or influenced by drugs? What are the physical properties of a thought? Or a feeling? Well, here, empiricism flies out of the window. Yes, we can scan the brain during such states of being, but relative to the person in question, he/she experience an entirely different existence, with its own spatial, time, and emotional attributes – none of which can so far be captured by any neuroscientist. Suddenly we arrive at a point wherein we must accept that not only the materialist world exists; there exist other ‘dimensions’ or mental realms’ that exist within us, within our lives. Moreover, the fact that there is an infinite number of realms of reality indicates that the ‘normal,’ regular world we live in is but one part of this much bigger reality of our Mind’s experiences. While it is well-known that there are different realms of the Mind, with their differing attributes, we ignore - or do not study the fact that there may be different realms of existence for both Mind and matter. The only reality most people assume exists the one we live within – the physical three-dimensional, plus time dimension. And yet, the definitions of reality are, in fact, numberless, depending entirely on the quality and spatial context of the collective totality of the Observer’s conscious and/or unconscious Mind within any specified timeframe. That means there are numberless forms of ‘realities’ specifically and only relative to and in the repose of each conscious or unconscious individual in question. In other words, this manuscript both defines the severe limitations of what are Minds can know, sense, feel or see of our bodies and the world beyond our bodies [the material aspects] while at the same my works propose that our Minds have numberless ‘realms of reality’ or experiences, far beyond what the average person generally lives with.
