I do remember at my first acute psychosis, a huge awareness of Hiroshima,
as if the explosion wavefront, crystalizing the universe, just reached me;
But it was the wavefront of my ego-dissolution expanding backwards in time.


I recall the phrase "wet quantum physics" (but it googled badly).

Roger [Penrose] and I teamed up to develop a theory of consciousness based
on quantum computation in microtubules within neurons.

  Quantum Consciousness . Stuart Hameroff

In a book titled The Quantum and the Lotus by Mathieu Ricard and Trinh Xuan 
Thuan (Crown Publishers, 2001), Ricard (a molecular biologist turned Buddhist 
meditator and co-author of the Lutz study) describes the Buddhist concept of 
three levels of consciousness, including the most important "fundamental 
luminosity of the mind". This is a "state of pure awareness that transcends the 
perception of a subject/object duality and breaks free from the constraints and 
traps of discursive thought." Moreover this form of consciousness, according to 
Mathieu Ricard, can exist independently of the brain, and in fact pervades the 
universe.

Mental states and/or properties can be considered as emergent if the material 
brain is not necessary or not sufficient to explore and understand them.[3]

> Remember "inside and outside the mind" re Someone in the Cyprian chapters?

 Jesus said to them, "When you make the two one, and when you
 make the inside like the outside and the outside like the
 inside, and the above like the below, and when you make the
 male and the female one and the same, so that the male not
 be male nor the female female; and when you fashion eyes in
 the place of an eye, and a hand in place of a hand, and a
 foot in place of a foot, and a likeness in place of a
 likeness; then will you enter the kingdom."
 -- Gospel of Thomas
