Feature | Electromagnetic or Electric Field (EMF) | Quantum Field (QF) | |
---|---|---|---|
1 | Origin | Projected waves (physiological waves) | Original waves (anatomic–chemical waves) |
2 | Wave pattern | Presence of pilot/directional wave | Diffused (delocalized) waves |
3 | Wave characteristics | High-frequency wave (limited frequency range when alive) | Low-frequency wave (unlimited and covers the whole frequency range via quantum wave superposition) |
4 | Wavelength | Short wavelength (presence or absence of wave superposition) | Long wavelength (with absolute presence of wave superposition) |
5 | Quantum concept | Deterministic (locatable) | Nondeterministic (unlocatable, changing) |
6 | Physics concept | Bohmian mechanics | (Truly) quantum mechanics |
7 | Dimension | High dimension (electric) | Low dimension (light) |
8 | System (energy) Note: The brain is like a mirror to the cosmos, with the brain and universe both having “low and high entropy”. Low entropy is formed from high entropy. | Concentrated organized system (energy) (low entropy) Low entropy is formed from the high-entropy state (EMF/EF originates from the projected and intersected QF waves) | Widespread diffused random system (energy) (high entropy) High entropy gives rise to the low-entropy state (the projected and intersected QF waves which form various vortices give rise to EMF/EF) |
9 | Brain network | Simple or specific network (few nodes) | Complex, changing, or nonspecific network |
10 | Symmetry | More asymmetry | More symmetry |
11 | Evoked response | Large evoked response with few stimuli or trials | Smaller evoked response, which needs a greater number of stimuli/trials and a quantum wave detector |
12 | Neuroplasticity (recovery once treated) | Less likely (because of limited field or focal/less diffused waves) | More likely (because of diffused waves and oneness) |
13 | Wholeness/oneness/one field concept | No (it is a response to the projected/limited field) | Yes (spreading, interconnecting, and permeating entire universe/field) |
14 | Related to psychiatry | Less relevant | More relevant (the brain QF is thought of as related to wholeness, reality, or the one consciousness concept) |
15 | Medical concept | Currently described by the Newtonian concept, whereby the brain is divided into anatomy/ensemble of particles and waves (physiological or electromagnetic brainwaves, i.e., the commonly studied waves) | Proposed as the medico-quantum physics concept, whereby an anatomic–chemical quantum brain field exists which remains hidden (anatomy/particle is also regarded as energy quanta/waves or mass is also regarded as energy) When this diffused field combines with the brain electric field, we get the total brain field # |
16 | Why is only the brain involved in interacting meaningfully with these two fields? Is it related to the seat of human soul concept? | The brain is the only human structure where these two energy fields (pairs) “converge”, Likely (because the center part of the brain is the origin for physiological brainwaves/EMF or all body functions (seat of soul)) | The brain is the only human structure where these two energy fields (pairs) “converge” Likely, the cosmos QF can interact meaningfully with only the brain, which has a seat of soul concept, resulting in the total brain field or mind field (see # above) |
Brain Function | Combination of EMF and QF (Total Brain Field or Two Brain Fields/Energy) | ||
A | Brain function (motor, sensory, vision, sound, touch) and its impairment | Noncognitive impairment such as stroke affecting motor, sensory, vision, sound, touch. EMF is more affected than QF. It is measurable and associated with degree of impairment | |
B | Brain function (language, emotion, memory, attention, planning, etc.) and its impairment | Cognitive impairment of language, emotion, memory, attention, planning, etc. QF is affected significantly, together with EMF. It is also measurable and associated with degree of impairment | |
C | Brain function and psychosis | Psychotic manifestations such as auditory or visual hallucinations, thought insertions, and delusions QF is likely more affected than EMF (i.e., not related to projected waves or, in other words, no stimuli) or there is an abnormal total brain field or abnormal interaction between the two fields -Yes or no; presence or absence, i.e., not associated with degree of impairment) |
