A new theoretical framework combines integrated information theory with three-dimensional temporal physics to propose that consciousness arises from the integration of information across three orthogonal time dimensions. This model mathematically represents how conscious experience may maintain coherence across different timescales, offering a topological formulation of persistent identity despite physical change, a short-term wave function representation of consciousness across multiple temporal dimensions, and testable predictions for neural-like systems. The approach aims to bridge scientific materialism with cultural concepts of consciousness by suggesting that complex informational integration across multiple time dimensions can produce properties associated with consciousness without requiring non-physical substances.
The soul can be scientifically defined as the information within a person's quantum vibrational field, according to a new interpretation of quantum physics called Tao Science. This framework proposes that everything at the deepest level is a quantum vibrational field carrying information, energy, and matter, and that conscious experiences occur when an observer absorbs these vibrations. The theory predicts that the soul is the essence of existence, may persist after physical death, can be eternal, allows remote connection between souls, and explains spiritual abilities like intuition and telepathy as scientifically grounded phenomena. The authors discuss mathematical calculations and potential experimental verification, supporting a monist and panpsychist view that all things possess a soul.
