“…Romijn ( 2002 ) proposed that virtual photons—the constituent units of an electromagnetic field—are the essential carrier units of consciousness. Others have suggested zero-energy tachyons (Hari, 2008 ), or hypothetical particles (Eccles, 1992 ), both of which are assumed to imbue the biological substrate with the quality of consciousness. In order to define the parameters within which a consciousness carrier particle might operate, energy (E) for 40 Hz oscillations—a neural correlate of consciousness—is obtained by the following equation:…”

“…Interestingly, according to modern physics, a faster than light object called the tachyon cannot be brought to rest. If the ‘mind’ indeed contains superluminal objects, it will be possible to describe the properties and processes of the human ‘mind’ in terms of mathematics and physics along with quantum mechanics (Hari, 2008[113]). Indian philosophy has always been considered complex and mysterious.…”

“…Consciousness is thus more complicated than subjective knowledge and inference. The subjective experience arises because of the ever-present consciousness observing the mind's contents and thoughts (Hari, 2008[113]; 2010[114]).…”

“…This model also explains why every subjective experience (including remembering a previous experience or imagining a future event) happens 'now' in one's mind (Hari, 2016). This model was successful in explaining and justifying Eccles's hypothesis about the role of volition in exocytosis, the basic process of inter-neuronal communication (Hari, 2008), and Libet's causal anomalies (Hari, 2014).…”
