Introduction

«The body cannot survive without the spirit, but the spirit has no need of the body.»

Érasme de Rotterdam

In “The Mind This Enigma”, we support the existence of a quantum component in the brain, interacting with the memory, the consciousness and the unconsciousness partially delocated.

More and more work rejecting the thesis of a consciousness reduced to intracerebral physiological reactions.

The sciences study the manifestations of the mind through thought, memory, emotion or the different stages of awakening:

- In neurobiology, consciousness is described as an intrinsic property of the brain.

- In psychology, it refers to mental processes.

- Freud distinguishes preconscious, conscious and unconscious.

- Jung talks about collective unconsciousness leading to our consciousness images that do not belong to ourselves.

But what could be the ultimate nature of the mind?

- Bohr sees in the random and non-mechanical nature of the quantum physics the origin of consciousness.

- Penrose and Hameroff say the brain hosts delocated electrons behaving like quantum objects.

- Beauregard, Ransford and Van Lommel defend the theory of the delocalization of consciousness, outside our space-time.

In order to better understand the structure of the mind, we will study here the emergence of the consciousness and the memory in the course of the evolution and even more in detail in man:

- How did the nervous system develop?

- How does build the human brain?

- When did consciousness and memory emerge?

- Why talking about non locality of the mind?

- Does our brain have a quantum component?

We will then look at the consequences of a delocalization of the mind out of our space-time:

- Does it involve communication between minds?

- Is there a pre-birth and an afterlife?

- What about the human individuality?

- What might be the origin and the form of a non-local mind?

For each theme, we will limit ourselves to the works of main authors, presented in publications intended for the greatest number.

- First, we will study the development of sensory systems and the emergence of the consciousness and the memory.

- Then we will recall the points in favour of the delocalization and the quantum nature of the mind.

- We will then move on to the individuality and communication between individuals, involving or not our 5 senses.

- We will then present the principles of the space-time, the data transmission and the complex systems.

- Finally, we will highlight the main clues supporting an afterlife but also a pre-birth.

By linking these different points, we will be able to propose a broader vision of the mind and its meaning.

By focusing on the spiritual communication, the individuality-globality relations and the continuity of spirit.

We wish you enriching and why not challenging moments

during your reading.
