A HYPOTHESIS ABOUT REALITY

In Italian: "Ipotesi sulla Realtà".
This is both the title of this site and of
the book issued in 1991 and 1995 (in Italy).




Abstract.

Science, while exploring the fundamental levels of reality, is discovering the "Unified Field", which in modern theories of physics is the basal entity of the universe and gives rise to any manifestation in nature. At its level matter has lost mechanical properties and has vanished in floating fields of energy.

Since human mind also belongs to reality, obviously it must have correlations with fundamental physics somehow, and therefore to the Unified Field. But any connection in this direction has been conditioned so far, or even obstructed, by "objectivation", on which both science and western mentality are based, and which neglects the crucial importance of human awareness.

The aim of this of this site and of this book is to expose (in a simple way) and to interpret the charming knowledges of modern physics about the nature of reality, and to support, on such bases and through other valid argumentations, the hypothesis that consciousness is a property that derives directly from the Unifed Field - and therefore it holds an essential importance in natural reality -. If this is true, the role of man in the universe and his potentiality would be revalued in a huge measure.

This hypothesis may appear daring and even unusual, but this is because in the western typical impersonal image of reality, due to objectivation, conscious man seems to be an intruder more than the natural expression of the evolution of the universe.

The subject is dealth with by means of an extreme caution, through an attentive and really complete analysis of its different aspects - physical, biological, psychological, philosophical and (marginally) even religious -. This work considers the convinctions of the main physicists of the century, such as Einstein, Bohr, Heisenberg, Schrödinger, are considered, and particular visions of other scientists, such as Jung, Bohm, Capra, and expecially Maharishi, both a physicist and an Indian Master, who is well known for his teachings (of great practical value) about consciousness.

The depth of the analysis does not prejudice the clearness and the simplicity of the exposition.
