The Trace & Trajectory Framework (TTF) offers a non-representationalist approach to meaning, cognition, and selfhood, grounded in dynamical systems theory and radical enactivism. Unlike traditional cognitive science, which treats meaning as something stored in mental representations, TTF proposes that meaning is enacted—it emerges through temporally extended navigational patterns called...

The double-slit experiment, a cornerstone of quantum mechanics, is traditionally viewed as a paradoxical demonstration of wave-particle duality. This article posits that its core dynamic—superposition, interference, and environment-driven localization—is not a unique quantum phenomenon but a fundamental computational principle implemented by the brain. We introduce the Ze framework, arguing...

Contemporary psychotherapy faces a profound paradox: while empirical evidence confirms the clinical significance of spirituality for resilience, established theoretical frameworks often lack a process-based mechanism to integrate this dimension beyond narrative content or cultural coping. This article addresses this gap by introducing a "spiritual self-pattern" into the Resonance-Inference...

This study constructs a comprehensive philosophical and mathematical framework for understanding perceptual stillness, conscious awareness, and their representations in modern art and music. It integrates contemplative insights from Eckhart Tolle’s notion of the “Power of Now” with neurogeometric and physical models of cognition, drawing parallels between meditative silence and harmonic...

The study of emotional body mapping has emerged as a critical tool for understanding the embodied mind, recently integrated into a tripartite framework comprising bottom-up physiological, top-down motor, and conceptual-metaphorical signals (Daikoku et al., 2025). However, current models remain largely descriptive, lacking a formalized account of functional lateralization as a predictive...

The mind–body problem remains a foundational unresolved issue at the intersection of philosophy of mind and cognitive science. While contemporary research on hemispheric asymmetry has produced extensive accounts of neural specialization and functional localization, it offers limited explanatory resources for understanding how lateralized neural dynamics are lived, enacted, and stabilized as...

Obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) remains treatment-resistant in 40–60 % of patients despite optimised serotonin-reuptake inhibitor therapy and antipsychotic augmentation. Emerging evidence points to glutamatergic dysregulation in cortico-striato-thalamo-cortical circuits as a core driver of rigid, maladaptive synaptic patterns. The Cheung Glutamatergic Regimen (CGR)—a fully oral, low-cost...

Eating disorders (ED) remain challenging to treat, with high dropout and low remission rates in cognitive-behavioral therapy for EDs (CBT-ED). Psilocybin treatment (PT) demonstrates therapeutic potential to enhance CBT-ED by exerting several neurobiological, psychological, and experiential effects (e.g., antidepressant, neuroplasticity, emotional openness) that are hypothesized to increase...

The mind–body problem remains a central unresolved issue in contemporary cognitive science. Although research on hemispheric asymmetry has yielded extensive knowledge about neural specialization and functional localization, it provides limited explanatory power for how lateralized neural processes become expressed as observable embodied behavior. Existing approaches typically treat bodily...

Classical physical ontology assumes a pre-existing, fully rendered world populated by discrete objects whose properties are fixed independently of observation. Yet, contemporary theories of consciousness, quantum physics, and predictive processing increasingly challenge this assumption, suggesting that perception is an active, constructive, and selective process. This article develops a...

Contemporary accounts of hemispheric asymmetry in cognitive neuroscience predominantly emphasize neuroanatomical localization and functional specialization, while offering limited explanatory mechanisms for how lateralized neural processes become observable in embodied behavior. The Subjectica Hypothesis proposes a neurophenomenological framework in which hemispheric asymmetry is expressed not...

Embodied cognition and hemispheric asymmetry remain fragmented fields with unresolved explanatory gaps. Existing models describe lateralized emotional processing, motor asymmetry, and context-dependent behavior, but they lack an integrated explanation linking subjective phenomenology to measurable kinematic patterns. This article proposes the Subjectic hypothesis: a neurophenomenological model...

This paper addresses a decisive anomaly identified in the Mayer (2025) report: in AI-related nightmares, 93% of cases fixate on the AI interaction interface itself rather than on narrative content. To explain this “formal fixation,” we propose a paradigm-shifting Interaction Architecture Internalization Model, which posits that the cognitive system internalizes the abstract logic and temporal...

This paper constructs a novel metaphysical framework for the archetype of the “Spiritual Sniper”—a figure whose silent awareness operates with precision at the level of karmic, temporal, and ontological structures. By synthesizing spiritual traditions, quantum mechanics, and differential geometry, the sniper is modeled as a boundary-conscious agent who collapses karmic fluctuations via directed...

Background: Bipolar disorder secondary to traumatic brain injury (TBI) is common, mechanistically distinct, and notoriously treatment-resistant. Rapid-acting glutamatergic antidepressants such as ketamine are effective in bipolar depression but remain inaccessible to most patients.Case presentation: We describe a woman in her mid-thirties with documented right frontal atrophy after a severe...

This paper argues that the moment-to-moment content of phenomenal consciousness is identical to whichever neural or mnemonic representation is, at that instant, transiently the most accessible given the system’s causal history and current embedding context. Building on Tulving’s distinction between availability and accessibility, together with empirical work on working-memory constraints,...

This paper examines the relationship between mindfulness-based interventions (MBIs) and creativity in workplace settings. Because only three — and highly heterogeneous — studies met the criteria for a systematic review, the authors conducted a critical narrative synthesis instead. A comprehensive search was performed in PubMed, Scopus, and Web of Science (up to February 2025) following PRISMA...

Intranasal esketamine has proven its worth for patients whose depression will not yield to standard medicines, yet the realities of cost and clinic-based monitoring bar many people from long-term use. The situation is especially frustrating for those who respond spectacularly to a first dose only to watch the benefits fade when they can no longer afford repeat treatments.That was the...

This paper develops a unified conceptual framework linking Brian D. Josephson’s later mind–matter proposals, Brahma Kumaris (BK) metaphysics, and the G¨odel–Brahe–Maxwell (GBM) rotating universe model, extended through the user’s Trilok real–imaginary dimensional structure. Beginning with Josephson’s thesis that coherence, meaning, and nonlocal biological order are fundamental rather than...

We propose the Informational Field Consciousness Theory (IFCT), an integrative framework combining information physics, quantum biology, and neuroscience to address the Hard Problem of Consciousness. Central to our thesis is the hypothesis that DNA functions as a fractal antenna capable of coupling with a fundamental informational field (IF), with neural networks serving as processors that...

Intravenous ketamine has transformed the care of refractory mood and anxiety disorders, yet its cost and clinical complexity keep many patients on the sidelines. The Cheung glutamatergic regimen tries to bring the same rapid-acting biology to the outpatient clinic with nothing more exotic than pharmacy-shelf capsules. The protocol pairs dextromethorphan, whose σ-1/NMDA activity mirrors...

This paper undertakes an ontological remapping of the philosophy of mind in light of the theory of enactive inference. We argue that David Chalmers' famous "Hard Problem" of consciousness is not an isolated puzzle awaiting resolution, but rather the symptom of a deeper, flawed premise: the stubborn persistence of a substance ontology and classical binary logic in our thinking. By drawing on the...
