“…Th ere might be other conditions governing the set-up of such non-local correlations in larger systems which we do not understand at present. Gernert, for example, has proposed that there needs to be something actively joining the elements in order to allow them to act like a holistic system by means of non-causal eff ects, such as a common history, or a joint future (Gernert, 2005(Gernert, , 2008, and von Lucadou has emphasised the importance of systemic boundaries (Lucadou, 1995).…”

SummarySpirituality is a topic of recent interest. Mindfulness, for example, a concept derived from the Buddhist tradition, has captivated the imagination of clinicians who package it in convenient intervention programs for patients. Spirituality and religion have been researched with reference to potential health benefi ts. Spirituality can be conceptualised as the alignment of the individual with the whole, experientially, motivationally and in action. For spirituality to unfold its true potential it is necessary to align this new movement with the mainstream of science, and vice versa. Hence, both a historical review, and a systematic attempt at integration is called for, which we are trying to give here. It is useful to go back to one of the roots: parapsychology. Parapsychology was founded as a counter movement to the rising materialist paradigm in the 19th century. Adopting the methods of the natural sciences, it tried to prove the direct infl uence of consciousness on matter. After 125 years this mission must be declared unaccomplished. Surveying the database of parapsychological research it is obvious that it will not convince sceptics: Although there are enough exceptional fi ndings, it has in general not been possible to reproduce them in replication experiments. Th is is, however, a characteristic signature of a category of eff ects which we call eff ects of generalised entanglement, predicted by a theoretical model analogous to quantum theory. Using this perspective, parapsychological eff ects can be understood, and the original aim of the founding fathers can be recovered, as well as a new, systematic understanding of spirituality be gained. Generalised entanglement is a formal and scientifi c way of explaining spirituality as alignment of an individual with a whole, which, according to the model, inevitably leads to non-local correlations.

Treating Leick with like: response to criticisms of the use of entanglement to illustrate homeopathy

Homeopathy

In criticising papers which recently appeared in Homeopathy, Leick claims that no double blind randomised clinical trials (DBRCTs) show that homeopathy is efficacious, and that specific effects of substances diluted beyond Avogadro's limit are implausible. He states that generalised entanglement models should be able to improve the design of experiments to test ultra-high dilutions, and disparages the authors' understandings of quantum physics. The paper responds to those criticisms. Several DBRCTs have shown that homeopathy has effects which are not due to placebo and these are now supported by preclinical work. This area of theory is in its infancy and it is unreasonable to expect it to have generated experiments at this stage. The authors have used accepted interpretations of quantum theory: Leick's view is coloured by skepticism concerning homeopathy.

“…Later, the idea of connecting quantum non-locality with Jung's synchronicity can be found, for example, in (Amoroso, 1997;Davies, 1989;Germine, 1997;Peat, 1997;Reuter, Kurthen and Linke, 1990) and in (Amoroso, 1999;Atmanspacher, 2003;Burke, 2007;Germine, 2007;Guindon and Hanna, 2002). Subsequent interpretations of this concept and references to it are presented in (Caramel and Stagnaro, 2010;Gernert, 2008;Raff, 2009;Wheeler and Hyland, 2008) and, to some extent, in (Brizhik, Giudice, Tedeschi and Voeikov, 2011;Duane, 2005;Matschuck, 2011;Summhammer, 2011). Lists of other papers in which the synchronicity phenomenon is interpreted on the basis of quantum non-locality can be found in (Limar, 2011, Limar, 2012.…”
