Hi all,
I was thinking about meditation and how people report experiences of
"oneness with the universe", "non separation", etc.
Meditation is a process of quieting the mind. One could say reducing
it's complexity. Simpler states have more undistinguishable observer
moments. Could it be that what's happening is that the consciousness
of the successful meditator becomes identified with a larger set of
states in the multi-verse?
Just the sketch of an idea, sorry for the lack of rigour.
It is a quite good insight. I think that something like that operates
with dissociative substance (ketamine, salvinorin, ...). Apparently,
they disconnect parts of the brain, so that the conscious part get its
complexity reduced, and that might give a "view of the multiverse" (as
in many salvia reports).
The point of finding a (comp, or ensemble) TOE is when you get a
theory rich enough (in universes/models), but not to much, for not
becoming trivial. Then the point is that to get plural-realities,
some probabilistic interference has to play a role in the elimination
of some infinities.
The relation is known in algebra (more equations, less solutions) and
in logic (more axioms, less models). It is related with the Galois
connection.
Well, meditations might be enough, perhaps. Sleep leads also to
dissociate state, simpler version of oneself, and the resulting
strange "realities".
It is related with the idea that brains acts like filter of
consciousness (as opposed to producer of consciousness).
