Abstract
Until today, we still do not know what glue binds together neural activity to sub-cellular molecular mechanisms, or the phenomenon which we call mind to our organic brain. In physics however, we mere or less know what the gluons are that bind matter together. What kind of an equation could this quantum physical/mechanical equation be, which would join mind/consciousness using the knowledge which we have or may have in the future? Very complex? Simple? Incomprehensible? Inconceivable? If such a linking equation were to be found, it would surely give rise to a new age in physics, the queen of existence and science.
