Mind, Matter, and Quantum Mechanics

Abstract

The purpose of this work is to resolve together four basic questions concerning the nature of nature. These questions are: (1) How is mind related to matter? (2) How is quantum theory related to reality? (3) How is relativity theory reconciled globally with that which locally we experience directly, namely the coming of reality into being or existence? (4) How is relativity theory reconciled with the apparent demand of Bell’s theorem that what happens in one spacetime region must, in certain situations, depend on decisions made in a spacelike-separated region? These four questions will be discussed in detail later. They are probably the four most fundamental questions in science.
