Ratio April 28, 2026 R. P. Koutedakis
Most naïve realists do not distinguish between perception and consciousness; to say that I perceive the table is akin to saying that I am conscious of the table. Doing so leads many to maintain that if the character of experience is constituted by anything other than the table, I do not perceive it, and so naïve realism fails. I argue that although most attempts to account for the character in...

In contrast to organically driven models of distress and disease, psychoanalysis shows that psychotic symptoms tell a story that cannot otherwise be told. The roots of madness are best understood in relation to the intergenerational transmission of trauma that impedes development in spite of otherwise good parenting. Such data invite us to consider ‘madness’ as a socially constructed...
Zenodo (CERN European Organization for Nuclear Research) April 28, 2026 Tenzin Trepp preprint
This paper develops a cognitive-constructivist account of consciousness focusing not on what consciousness does but on how it presents. Building on an Interpreter–Navigator model of mind, we argue that phenomenal experience (qualia) serves as a user interface (UI): a presentational format optimized for direct usability by an embodied agent. The central claim is that feeling is the utility...

Early postmenopause is characterized by persistent menopausal symptoms that may impair quality of life. Globally, early postmenopausal care is constrained by sociocultural barriers and limited availability of nurse-led, nonpharmacological services. Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR), aligned with holistic nursing philosophy, lacks evidence in culturally adapted, nurse-led, digitally...

Emergent Post-Loss Experiences (EPLEs) are reported in experiential grief therapies such as Reparative Experience-Based Grief Therapy (REGT) and Induced After-Death Communication Therapy (IADC). Through these experiences, such approaches have demonstrated notable effectiveness and efficiency in the treatment of complicated grief. Yet their phenomenology and structure remain poorly defined, and...

Ancient contemplative traditions offer sophisticated technologies for cultivating stable states of consciousness underlying sustainable well-being. This integrative review synthesizes empirical and theoretical literature on Patañjali’s Sanyam—the integrated practice of Dharana (concentration), Dhyana (meditative absorption), and Samadhi (non-dual awareness)—and its Zen parallel, Joriki...

This study aims to analyze the New Age Movement (NAM) from the perspective of Islamic epistemology by using Randall Baer’s work Inside the New Age (1989) as the primary source of analysis. The movement represents a modern spiritual phenomenon that has expanded widely in contemporary society, particularly through discourses on self-development, non-religious spirituality, consciousness science,...
