Excerpts
What about consciousness? What about us? How do we fit in? Wheeler describes Einstein’s theory of gravity, in which spacetime geometry is curved by energy, as matter getting its marching orders from geometry, which is also in the grip of matter’s energy density. Therefore, what we have is a two way street of action and reaction between geometry and matter in Einstein’s classical theory of gravity, i.e. the general theory of relativity. David Bohm, who worked with Einstein in early 1950’s at Princeton, showed an analogy of quantum theory with this two-way action-reaction of general relativity. The mental quantum wave is a "pilot wave". Both classical matter and geometry are "hidden variables" that get their marching orders from quantum waves. Quantum waves are really thought-like "information" waves. Information comes in "bits". There are classical bits called "c-bits" and quantum bits called "qubits". In Bohr’s theory qubits collapse into c-bits and a quantum computer has massive parallelism from an infinity of parallel c-bit computing processes that combine to solve a problem much faster than any classical computer described by a Turing Machine or any other formal mathematical logical scheme equivalent to it. My old Cornell colleague, Stanford’s Lenny Susskind, has a "world hologram" model in which volumes of space have a c-bit content equal to the area bounding that volume divided by the Planck area 10-66 cm2. This reduces all space to the "Bekenstein" c-bits previously thought to only be on the event horizons of black holes that obey the laws of thermodynamics.
David Bohm pointed out that the only reason that micro-quantum waves cannot be used for direct communication, faster than light, slower than light, and even backwards in time is that matter and geometry get their marching orders from mental quantum pilot waves. However, these mental waves do not get any direct feedback or "back-action" from the matter-geometry whose motion they pilot. My consciousness generation conjecture, is that if and when any mental quantum bit pilot wave gets direct feedback from the classical geometrodynamical hidden variable it is piloting, then that mind field acquires inner consciousness with feelings. This seems to require a "More is different" phase transition to a non-equilibrium "macro-quantum" complex system with signal nonlocality that is not found in micro-quantum physics.
"Finally it should be pointed out that unlike what happens with Maxwell’s equations for example, the Schrodinger equation for the quantum field does not have sources, not does it have any other way by which the field could be directly affected by the conditions of the particles. This of course constitutes an important difference between quantum fields and other fields that have thus far been used. As we shall see, however, the quantum theory can be understood completely in terms of the assumption that the quantum field has no sources or other forms of dependence on the particles. We shall in -- 14.6, go into what it would mean to have such dependence and we shall see that this would imply that the quantum theory is an approximation with a limited domain of validity." P. 30 The Undivided Universe, Routledge, 1993
No source for the "thought-like" quantum Ψ field is action of mind on matter without back-action or direct reaction of matter back on mind. Mind grips matter and makes it move randomly unconsciously unintelligently without matter gripping back on mind to awaken it into inner consciousness with creative intelligence apart from hard-wired instinct in the form of naturally selected classical cybernetic feedback-control loops as explained by Norbert Weiner.
Matter receiving its marching orders from mind without matter gripping back on mind is analogous to globally flat special relativity without gravity. In that limited domain matter receives marching orders from space-time geometry without matter bending space-time and geometry into gravity.
No source for the micro-quantum Ψ field also corresponds to Antony Valentini’s "sub-quantum heat death" or "sub-quantum equilibrium" in which nonlocal quantum theory has signal locality. Signal locality is the basis of quantum computing, quantum teleportation and untappable quantum cryptography. They all collapse in post-quantum or macro-quantum theory with local emergent order, but long range hologram phase coherence, from symmetry breaking in the vacuum for virtual quanta and in the ground state for real quanta. We now have signal nonlocality with local macro-quantum order that corresponds to Valentini’s "sub-quantal non-equilibrium". All living matter is non-equilibrium with signal nonlocality violating micro-quantum theory.
Faster than light signals cannot happen in micro-quantum theory with signal locality. Faster than light signals, even backwards in time from the future, do happen as a matter of common fact, in living matter whose signature is signal nonlocality. This is what the "presponse" mind-brain data of Libet, Radin and Bierman is all about. This is what ordinary consciousness is all about. This is what the paranormal is all about. The knee-jerk debunking Pundits who deny this fact cut off their noses to spite their faces. Heinz Pagels was one of those Pundits and he died in precisely the way he precognized at the end of his book "The Cosmic Code" falling off the mountain. Thi

About the Book
Sarfatti’s first hard-hitting book in this series, Destiny Matrix, discusses historical facts about the New Age Occult in the rise of fascism and nazism, of Cold War Soviet espionage in America using "psychic warfare" and the origins of Reagan’s "Star Wars," that are virtually unknown to the public. This book Space-Time and Beyond – The Series adds to this discussion of the hidden occult history of modern times, moral dilemmas and the rapidly evolving astounding new physics ideas on time and consciousness, UFO Star Gate Time Machines and the paranormal that are "Making Star Trek Real." Reality is even stranger than science fiction.
Controversial ideas like Dr. Sarfatti’s are not found in any other book in the genre that he created at Esalen in 1976. Sarfatti’s recent discovery unifying dark energy with dark matter add extra dimensions the new concept of the universe, Super Cosmos, that Stephen Hawking introduced to the public in The Universe in a Nutshell. The implications of these new ideas of the mainstream physics of time travel and parallel universes for the very popular fringe topics of flying saucers and the paranormal are discussed in a sober way.
Dark Energy also has a human dimension in the natural ambiguity of plain language as betrayal of trust and friendship for money in the case of Gary Zukav’s The Dancing Wu Li Masters and even murder in the case of Ira Einhorn. There is a section on the Ira Einhorn-Holly Maddux murder mystery. Einhorn was Jack Sarfatti’s literary agent for the original Space-Time and Beyond in 1975
Dr. Sarfatti has been filmed by Paramount Pictures lecturing on this subject for their Spring 2003 DVD re-issue of Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home. The book is complete with tables of contents and an index of key names and phrases.
About the Author
SAN FRANCISCO, CALIFORNIA—"The Bohemian physicist--contributes a balanced scientific non-establishment for this expanding society. I don’t mean to disparage the work, either--among all the blatherers there sometimes appears a breakthrough thinker. Originality has always required a fertile expanse of fumble and mistake. That’s the beauty of the option. Your life might turn out to be just what’s required to save the planet--Sarfatti’s Cave is the name I’ll give to the Café Trieste in San Francisco, where Jack Sarfatti, Ph.D. in physics, writes his poetry, evokes his mystical, miracle-working ancestors, and has conducted a several-decade-long seminar on the nature of reality and his own love life to a rapt succession of espresso scholars." Bohemia, Where Art, Angst, Love and Strong Coffee Meet, Herbert Gold, Simon & Schuster, 1993.
"Jack Sarfatti, Ph.D., Director of the Physics/Consciousness Research Group, is the catalyst without whom the following people and I would not have met -- These men are the godfathers of this book." Gary Zukav in Acknowledgments to The Dancing Wu Li Masters. Jack, as a matter of fact, actually wrote large parts of the physics sections of Wu Li Masters and worked closely with Gary on the re-writing of contributions from other physicists whose cooperation Jack brokered. Gary had no physics education and was Jack’s roommate in San Francisco’s Bohemia – North Beach, which is how he got the opportunity to come to Esalen because of Jack’s invitation that led to the Wu Li book.
Author Jack Sarfatti was born in Brooklyn, New York on September 14, 1939. He graduated with a BA in Physics from Cornell and later earned a PhD in Physics from the University of California. His bio is on Wikipedia.
