Scientists
Claim That Quantum Theory Proves Consciousness Moves
To Another Universe At Death..
(A look at the Spirit Science and Metaphysics Magazine)
A
book titled “Biocentrism:
How Life and Consciousness Are the Keys to Understanding the Nature
of the Universe“
has stirred up the Internet, because it contained a notion that life
does not end when the body dies, and it can last forever. Beyond
time and space. The
author of this publication, scientist Dr. Robert Lanza who was
voted the 3rd most important scientist alive by the NY Times, has
no doubts that this is possible :
Lanza
is an expert in regenerative medicine and scientific
director of Advanced Cell Technology Company. Before he
has been known for his extensive research which dealt with stem
cells, he was also famous for several successful experiments
on cloning endangered animal species.
But
not so long ago, the scientist became involved with physics,
quantum mechanics and astrophysics. This explosive mixture has
given birth to the new theory of biocentrism, which the
professor has been preaching ever since. Biocentrism teaches
that life and consciousness are fundamental to the universe. It
is consciousness that creates the material universe, not the other
way around.
Lanza
points to the structure of the universe itself, and that the laws,
forces, and constants of the universe appear to be fine-tuned for
life, implying intelligence existed prior to matter. He also
claims that space and time are not objects or things, but rather
tools of our animal understanding. Lanza says that we carry
space and time around with us “like turtles with shells.” meaning
that when the shell comes off (space and time), we still exist.
The
theory implies that death of consciousness simply does not
exist. It only exists as a thought because people
identify themselves with their body. They believe that the body is
going to perish, sooner or later, thinking their consciousness will
disappear too. If the body generates consciousness, then
consciousness dies when the body dies.
But
if the body receives consciousness in the same way that a cable box
receives satellite signals, then of course consciousness does not end
at the death of the physical vehicle. In fact, consciousness
exists outside of constraints of time and space. It is able to
be anywhere: in the human body and outside of it. In other
words, it is non-local in the same sense that quantum objects are
non-local.
Lanza
also believes that multiple universes can exist
simultaneously. In one universe, the body can be dead. And
in another it continues to exist, absorbing consciousness which
migrated into this universe. This means that a dead person
while traveling through the same tunnel ends up not in hell or in
heaven, but in a similar world he or she once inhabited, but
this time alive. And so on, infinitely. It’s almost like a
cosmic Russian doll afterlife effect.
Multiple
worlds:
This
hope-instilling, but extremely controversial theory by Lanza has many
unwitting supporters, not just mere mortals who want to live forever,
but also some well-known scientists. These are the physicists and
astrophysicists who tend to agree with existence of parallel worlds
and who suggest the possibility of multiple
universes. Multiverse (multi-universes)
is a so-called scientific concept, which they defend. They believe
that no physical laws exist which would prohibit the existence
of parallel worlds.
The
first one was a science fiction writer H.G. Wells who
proclaimed in 1895 in his story “The
Door in the Wall”.
And after 62 years, this idea was developed by Dr. Hugh
Everett in his graduate thesis at the Princeton University. It
basically posits that at any given moment the universe divides
into countless similar instances. And the next moment, these
“newborn” universes split in a similar fashion. In some of these
worlds you may be present: reading this article in one universe, or
watching TV in another.
The
triggering factor for these multiplying worlds is our actions,
explained Everett. If we make some choices, instantly one universe
splits into two with different versions of outcomes.
In
the 1980s, Andrei Linde, scientist from the Lebedev’s
Institute of physics, developed the theory of multiple universes. He
is now a professor at Stanford University. Linde
explained: Space consists of many inflating spheres, which give
rise to similar spheres, and those, in turn, produce spheres in even
greater numbers, and so on to infinity. In the universe, they
are spaced apart. They are not aware of each other’s
existence. But they represent parts of the same physical
universe.
The
fact that our universe is not alone is supported by data received
from the Planck space telescope. Using the data, scientists
have created the most accurate map of the microwave background, the
so-called cosmic relic background radiation, which has
remained since the inception of our universe. They also found that
the universe has a lot of dark recesses represented by some holes and
extensive gaps.
Theoretical
physicist Laura Mersini-Houghton from the North Carolina
University with her colleagues argue: the anomalies of the microwave
background exist due to the fact that our universe is influenced
by other universes existing nearby. And holes and gaps are a
direct result of attacks on us by neighboring universes.
Soul:
So,
there is abundance of places or other universes where our soul
could migrate after death, according to the theory of
neo-biocentrism. But does the soul exist? Is there any
scientific theory of consciousness that could accommodate such a
claim? According to Dr. Stuart Hameroff, a near-death experience
happens when the quantum information that inhabits the nervous system
leaves the body and dissipates into the universe.
Contrary
to materialistic accounts of consciousness, Dr. Hameroff offers an
alternative explanation of consciousness that can perhaps appeal to
both the rational scientific mind and personal intuitions.
Consciousness
resides, according to Stuart and British physicist Sir Roger Penrose,
in the microtubules of the brain cells, which are the primary sites
of quantum processing. Upon death, this information is released
from your body, meaning that your consciousness goes with it. They
have argued that our experience of consciousness is the result of
quantum gravity effects in these micro tubules, a theory which they dubbed orchestrated objective reduction (Orch-OR).Consciousness, or
at least proto-consciousness is theorized by them to be a fundamental
property of the universe, present even at the first moment of the
universe during the Big Bang. “In one such scheme proto-conscious
experience is a basic property of physical reality accessible to a
quantum process associated with brain activity.”
Our
souls are in fact constructed from the very fabric of the universe –
and may have existed since the beginning of time. Our brains are just
receivers and amplifiers for the proto-consciousness that is
intrinsic to the fabric of space-time. So is there really a part of
your consciousness that is non-material and will live on after the
death of your physical body?
Dr
Hameroff told the Science Channel’s Through the Wormhole
documentary: “Let’s say the heart stops beating, the blood stops
flowing, the microtubules lose their quantum state. The quantum
information within the microtubules is not destroyed, it can’t be
destroyed, it just distributes and dissipates to the universe at
large”. Robert Lanza would add here that not only does it
exist in the universe, it exists perhaps in another universe.
If
the patient is resuscitated, revived, this quantum information can go
back into the microtubules and the patient says “I had a near death
experience”‘
"He
adds: “If they’re not revived, and the patient dies, it’s
possible that this quantum information can exist outside the body,
perhaps indefinitely, as a soul "
This
account of quantum consciousness explains things like near-death
experiences, astral projection, out of body experiences, and
even reincarnation without
needing to appeal to religious ideology. The energy of your
consciousness potentially gets recycled back into a different body at
some point, and in the mean time it exists outside of the physical
body on some other level of reality, and possibly in another
universe.

My
dear Facebook friend Anthea Haupt found the article and I got just a
