Consciousness As A Fundamental Property

Posted by Roaring Lovely on June 13, 2015 at 7:30pm
One may say that the mainstream science assumes that consciousness is an emergent property. This is to say that if we are to understand everything about the neural wiring of the brain, together with some chemistry, then we will somehow figure out how awareness emerge from the fundamental laws of physics and chemistry. Needless to say, consciousness keeps on eluding them.From history of science, we have come to know that when a phenomenon stubbonly defy an explanation, then we are likely to be wrong in assuming that the phenomenon is emergent. So we try to overturn the tables right side up. It is a kinda 'if you can't beat em, join em' I will give you two examples of such. In the days before Newton, scientists were wondering why things move. It was because they thought that a stationary thing was fundamental and motion was an emergent property. But Newton showd them a way foward; a thing moving steadily is as much a fundamental property of an object as a thing standing still. In other words, we say that Newton included motion in the fundamental way he understands the universe.FUNDAMENTAL QUALIAAccording to mainstream physics, the engine of science, fundamental things are such things as mass, time, energy, force, temperature, charge etc. They seek to derive everything else from this very limited list! But of course you should spot the problem. Lets consider say 'love'. You will waste your time trying to derive this from concepts of forces, energy, mass, time etc. To account for 'love' in the universe, you must add it in the list above of fundamental properties!In the mainstream science, we can safely talk of the following as the property of an object; length of the object, its mass, its temperature, its charge etc. But when you talk of its smell, they somehow tend to associate this to your own brain. But the exclution of smell was excluded just by fiat by Galileo and his future disciples followed his footsteps without question! But infact if we want to say that smell has something to do with your brain than the object you are smelling, then one can also argue that even length, mass, charge etc tells us something about our own brains than the object! This seemingly innocent act of Galileo is the birth of all the consciousness problems. We are now left with a futile task of wondering how the brain generate this other left out properties as smells. It does not!!! The 'brain' as an object in Galileo's view would only contain such properties as mass etc. However, if we included smells as part of properties of objects, we would have no problem figuring out where it come from in the brain any more than we have a problem figuring out where the shape of the brain comes from!Newton said that of course no one can explain how the brain creats the phantasm of colors. But there is still something he assumes; that the brain creates it. It does not! Colors are fundamental properties of the universe. When you are starring at a mangoe, your brain does not creat the green color any more than it creats the round shape of the mangoe or if you like, the brain creats the shape of the mangoe EQUALLY as it does the color of the mangoe. Erwin Schrodinger almost gets it but he misses it by attributing 'objective' to the wave model of light. He says;"the sensation of color cannot be accounted for by the physicist's objective picture of light-waves could the psychologist account for it, if he had fuller knowledge than he has of the processes in the retina and the nervous processes set up by them in the optical nerve bundles and in the brain? I don't think so.Waves are as much subjective things in our awareness as colors are! Now, what a physicist should be interested with is the corelation between say color blue and a high frequency vibration. What does rapid motion got to do with colors? I guess a hint is gotten by watching how a bee buzz near some blue flowers! How does a blue jacket pull you towards it in a supermarket? Where do colors get this magical power from? I hope that you will understand this force by exermining how it acts from within.NON GALILIEAN MEASUREMENTyou might think that such things as lengths, mass etc can be measured and smells cannot. Right? Wrong! Even scientists misses the true philosophy of measurement which is just a comparison. Can't you compare the smell of perfumes? Yes you can. When measuring the length of an object, you are just comparing it with the length of a ruler. Similarly, you might not be able to tell the amount of whitness in a give hue of blue but given another color adjuscent to it, you can tell that either one or the other has more whitness or they are of the same amount of whitness. With such a proceedure, we can soon constract a scale with an ascending order of increasing whitness. We can lable them 1,2,3,.., etc. Then we will use such a scale to gauge other blue. No ruler like strips, just varying blue hues.FUNDAMENTAL CONSCIOUSNESSWhen scientists saw that our brains are made up of the same things that makes up the supposed nonconscious things, they sort out to attempt to explain consciousness in terms of unconscious events. However, the vice-versa could and should also be considered. If our brains are conscious but it is made of the same stuff that makes rocks, then rocks should have some form of consciousness too. This means that we cannot get to understand everything about the rock by studying it the way scientists do. This inturn explains alot of mysteries in physics such as those of quantum mechanics etc.
