Schrödinger’s Cat Experiment Introduction   Schrödinger’s cat experiment is a thought experiment widely recognized for its intriguing paradox. Possibilities are not just Possibility, Possibilities are existing reality in quantum world. For those unfamiliar, the premise involves a cat sealed within a box containing a device linked to the decay of a radioactive atom, which could lead to the cat’s demise. Schrödinger proposed this scenario not as a literal experiment, but as a way to highlight the bizarre implications of quantum mechanics, specifically concepts like quantum superposition – the ability of a quantum system to exist in multiple states simultaneously – as well as hinting at ideas that later evolved into interpretations like the Many-Worlds theory and the complexities of quantum entanglement. Surrounding influence Consider the very air around us, a dynamic tapestry of molecules, fields, and energy, all intricately connected to our existence. In a room where life has depart...

  My Decision: Navigating Temptation Through Conscious Awareness and a Glimpse into Reality   Based on my internal process  The journey of breaking free from addiction is often portrayed as a battle against external forces or ingrained habits. However, the true locus of control may lie within the intricate workings of our own minds, specifically in the interplay between sensory triggers and conscious awareness. My personal exploration has led me to believe that the key to navigating temptation lies in cultivating a heightened sense of observation and a deliberate engagement of our conscious decision-making processes. Addiction, as I’ve come to understand it, can begin with a seemingly innocuous thought, which then spirals into an expectation fueled by sensory imaginings. These sensory urges can become so potent that they momentarily overshadow our rational, conscious thoughts, driving us towards the addictive behavior. Yet, moments of heightened awareness, perhaps trigge...

Consciousness Introduction The moment I encounter the word “consciousness,” neurological correlations and brain activity immediately spring to mind. Yet, I’m left with a sense that something is missing. When I delve deeper, I realize that while our hearts and kidneys function in essentially the same way for everyone – indeed, every organ operates with remarkable similarity across individuals – consciousness and its neurological underpinnings seem different. Yes, the fundamental structure might be the same, but the subjective experience feels entirely unique. What Makes It Different? We are all composed of the same basic particles, and despite forming similar biological structures, our consciousness remains distinct. When we ponder the "why" behind this, our initial thought might be our unique genetic code, a result of being born to different parents. However, this explanation feels inadequate. Even siblings, who share a significant portion of their genetic material, possess ...

Introduction   question keeps nagging at me: why do I even think about this stuff? Is everything we see around us now just a consequence of the Big Bang? If so, what kicked off the Big Bang in the first place? What made it happen? It feels strange to think about whether the fundamental bits – particles, fields, energy, space, all that – were actually created by the Big Bang, or if they were already… there. It makes you wonder, doesn’t it? The idea that maybe nothing is ever truly created or destroyed. The water we drink, the air we breathe – could those very same molecules have once been part of someone we consider a holy figure, like Ram, Krishna, or Jesus and more. And the atoms that make up our bodies right now? Maybe some of them were once part of a dinosaur. Sometimes that thought just blows my mind.  It seems like we’re all just using recycled molecules and atoms, constantly. That’s the kind of conclusion I start to reach, but then a new wave of thoughts hits me. Sunligh...

  Time travel  Introduction   The concept of time travel has become a persistent echo in my mind, a thought I simply can’t shake, even when my attention is focused elsewhere. This fascination led me to ask friends and colleagues about their own understanding of it. Interestingly, while their individual interpretations varied slightly, a common thread emerged: a belief in its potential for immense personal gain, the ability to change fortunes and outcomes. This collective vision, however, sparks a deeper question within my own consciousness: is such a thing truly possible, and more importantly, would time travel genuinely hold the transformative power we imagine? Possibility to travel to past In the quantum realm, the nature of time becomes far more abstract and is still a subject of intense research. Many of the fundamental laws at this level are time-symmetric, suggesting a different relationship with time than we experience macroscopically. While some theoretical framew...

Unpacking   the concept of experiences  Experience Previously, we discussed the purpose of humans and ultimately concluded that experience is that purpose. However, we didn’t delve into the meaning of experience. In this article, we will explore the meaning of experience. What is experience? When we try to find a scientific meaning of experience, science cannot provide an exact, universally agreed-upon definition of subjective experience. This is because the same stimulus, such as a bowl of drinking water consumed by 100 people, yields 100 different subjective experiences; it’s inherently personal. However, when we try to understand the fundamental basis of experience, we can explore the concepts of space and consciousness. S pace: When we think about space, our minds often go to planets, stars, and so on. However, we often overlook that space is also all around us. Imagine a hypothetical scenario where there are no planets, no stars, etc. According to modern physics, space wo...

  introduction   This article delves into philosophical thoughts and a deep personal observation. It is not connected to science, because science cannot answer every question humans have. While science tries to answer questions about existence, philosophical thoughts can address areas that science cannot. Philosophy, in a sense, explore fundamental question that can sometimes lay the groundwork for the futuristic scientific inquiry. Is the universe thinking in us? I had one question in mind: “Is the universe thinking in us?” This question is something that has pulled me to explore it further. I’m writing this article as my thoughts flow. Initially, the idea arose as a simple reflection: are we thinking, or is the universe thinking in us? It’s a philosophical notion that challenges the boundaries of individual consciousness and hints at a deeper interconnectedness with the cosmos. This isn’t a scientific comparison, but rather a pondering of agency and our place within somethin...
