What is consciousness? How does it work? The philosophers tried to unravel this riddle since the rise of the civilization. However, idea that brain works in a quantum mechanical way is fairly new. Naturally, because it first required development of quantum mechanics. The idea is that quantum entanglement and quantum superposition play important role in the brain-function. To be more specific this ideas fuses quantum mechanics and theory of relativity in one. Several famous mathematicians and scientists backed this idea, like Bohm, Penrose, and Pribram among others. Atheistic scientists strongly disagreed with idea but De Broglie-Bohm pilot wave theory, which Bohm thought to be one of the crucial things in the description of quantum mind, gave the practical use of quantum mechanics, namely the so called "q-thrusters", which stands for "quantum vacuum thruster", technology which is can replace other engines in space exploration mission.
In his book "Wholeness and implicate order" Bohm describes quantum mechanics and theory of relativity as contradictory, thus there is a deeper theory - quantum field theory. On a fundamental level this is undivided wholeness/oneness and implicate order from which explicite order arises. This explicite order is the universe we experience. Implicite order applies both to matter and consciuousness. He saw mind and matter as projections into our explicate order from the underlying implicate order. Bohm claimed that when we look at matter, we see nothing that helps us to understand consciousness. He also discussed the experience of listening to music. He believed the feeling of movement and change that make up our experience of music derive from holding the immediate past and the present in the brain together. The musical notes from the past are transformations rather than memories. The notes that were implicate in the immediate past become explicate in the present. Bohm viewed this as consciousness emerging from the implicate order. This later on led to development of psychologic theory known as holonomic brain theory. Holonomic brain theory is a model of human cognition that describes the brain as a holographic storage network. Another scientist Karl Pribram, suggests these processes involve electric oscillations in the brain's fine-fibered dendritic webs, which are different from the more commonly known action potentials involving axons and synapses. These oscillations are waves and create wave interference patterns in which memory is encoded naturally, and the waves may be analyzed by a Fourier transform.
The whole topic is so broad I could write for hours. But I want to hear your thoughts: Do you think human kind possess quantum mind?
NOTE: For those who are uncertain what quantum superposition is, check this video:
Also, another fun fact: already mentioned David Bohm due to this idea, which some people in the USA didn't like, was prohibited from the USA and had to take the Brazilian passport.
I gave example with music, but you can map it just into any sphere of life. Its opposing any fixed theories. I'll give another example, say you have a thought "this person is 100% bad/evil/(some characteristic)" based on couple of experiences. It means you fixed your mind to it and when you meet the person next time you will go from previous experience. I think its a trap.
PS. Also I believe this is how universe works. If you "observe" one part of universe you are setting the state of another part through the means of entaglement.

same thing could apply for feelings, I guess.
For everything. A better description would be like this:
Imagine this as universal flowing movement to whirlpools in a stream of water, wherein each whirlpool vortex is a discrete structure that exists as a relatively stable pattern within an undivided continuous flowing whole - the stream. The individuated entity (a vortex) is seamlessly connected to all other entities in a unified wholeness. In this model, quantum "particles" are seen as vortex fluctuations in a continuous holographic movement, and therefore so is all of cosmic reality.
What this implies is that as we consider the holographic principle as fundamental to the nature of the cosmos, we ought to do so not from a static frame of reference (such as a holographic image on a glass plate), but from a continuously flowing, dynamic viewpoint wherein the "hologram" is in constant flux. This is one of the key shifts in perspective that's required to orient our minds toward a true vision and understanding of the holographic principle. There is nothing in the cosmos that is not moving, therefore the holographic presence is one of motion.
Although this is a human-centric example of continous flowing wholeness, it is what is happening at every scale of manifestation. From quantum fluctuations called "particles" to super-massive galactic structures, there is a fractally-embedded, seamlessly scaling, undivided wholeness in constant movement — the holomovement.
PS. What I forgot to mention is Western way is not this. That creates ultimate misery for the people living there, but for Slavs its natural way of seeing things.

wow man, I gotta read this many times since I got quite a few unknown words. Congrats for the write up!
Great write up. I need lots of reading before I solidify my own views about it.
I find ULF's comments exceptionally useful regarding the matter.
It may interest you that David Bohm was highly influenced by holistic principles of Bogdanov's "Tektology" (which we already discussed here on one occassion) published somewhere between years 1912 - 1915. I assume that's why Bohm was being cited as "being involved in communism" on Wikipedia, and why he lost USA citizenship. You may know that tektology gave solution to complex system way before fractals and chaos theory emerged. That speaks of ingenuity of Slavic political/organizational philosophy at the beginning of 20th century. Ten to fifteen years later many leading USA and German philosophers and scientists copied Bogdanov's work, like Bohm himself. Bohm's contribution was adapting it to known science and spreading the theory further.
Tektology translated to English. I couldn't find better copy.
PS. If you are interested in David Bohm's Wholeness and the implicate order let me know. I haven't read Tektology whole but from what I know both books are gems of organizational philosophy.
