As the starting point, physics needs to consider not the objects of k=owledge but what it means to know anything. Without an understanding of co=sciousness--the unspoken constant in all observation, experimentation, and=experience--current science cannot bridge the mind-body schism that is the central obstacle in any TOE. In th=s session, I will address the following questions: Can anything, from a su=atomic particle to the visible universe, be taken as a given? How much is =nowledge dependent on human consciousness? Is it possible to unify all experience as an activity in consciousness? Wh=t would a consciousness-based reality be like? Specially, how can we adopt=a worldview where anything that can be described, thought about, or experi=nced is a human construct? Is the old assumption about a physical world "out there" now totally ou=moded and therefore a dead end for investigating the "real" real=ty?Key Words:Theory of Everything; Knowledge; Observation, Experimentation= Experience; Mind-body Schism; Consciousness; RealitySubmission Date:Friday 3rd of February 2017 01:04:13 PMLast Update Date:Friday 3rd of=February 2017 01:04:13 PMAdmin Update:Friday 24th of February 2017 01:52:3= PM by Behar-Montefiore, Abi Abi Behar M=ntefiore Assistant Director Center for CONSCIOUSNESS STUDIES University of Arizona c/o Dept. of Anesthesiology POB 245114, Tucson, AZ 85724-5114 www.consciousness.arizona.edu <http://www.consciousness.arizona.edu/> Upcoming TSC Conferences: Shanghai China June 5-10, 2017 Tucson AZ April 1.8, 2018 Interlaken Switzerland June 25.28, 2019 Deepak Chopra MD 2013 Costa Del Mar Road Carlsbad, CA 92009 =hopra Foundation <http://www.choprafoundat=on.org/> Jiyo <http://www.jiyo.com/> 3 EFTA_R1_01334759 EFTA02353851 Chopra Cen=er for Wellbeing <http://www.chopra.com/> <https://www.discoveringyo=rcosmicself.com/> <https://www.discoveringyourcosmicself.com/> =/p> <http:=/www.discoveringyourcosmicself.com/> <=p> please note The information contained in this communication is confidential, may be attorney-client privileged, may constitute inside information, and is intended only for the use of the addressee.
