Foundation of all Axioms the Axioms of Consciousness
by Frank De Silva
A description of consciousness leads to a contradiction with the postulation from special relativity that there can be no connections between simultaneous event. Consciousness consists of two distinct components, the observed U and the observer I. The observed U consist of all the events I is aware of. A vast majority of these occur simultaneously. Now if I were to be an entity within the space-time continuum, all of these events of U together with I would have to occur at one point in space-time. However, U is distributed over a definite region of space-time (region in brain). Thus, I is aware of a multitude of space-like separated events. It is seen that this awareness necessitates I to be an entity outside the space-time continuum. With I taken as such, a new concept called concept A is introduced. With the help of concept A a very important axiom of consciousness, namely Free Will is explained. Libet’s Experiment which was originally seen to contradict Free will, in the light of Concept A is shown to support it. A variation to Libet’s Experiment is suggested that will give conclusive proof for Concept A and Free Will. (Read more...)
