Quantum-holographic Framework for Consciousness & Acupuncture: Psychosomatic-cognitive Implications

The paradigm of quantum physics enables us to broaden our holistic worldview, and explain and include phenomena that have hitherto been ignored or denied, which can lead to profound change in any field and in our society at large. The aim of this paper is to present quantum-holographic framework for understanding consciousness and acupuncture system, with significant psychosomatic-cognitive implications. This is of special importance because of wider application of holistic medicine in developed countries, oriented to the treatment of man as a whole and not diseases as symptoms of disorders of this wholeness, implying their macroscopic quantum origin. The focus of these quantum-holistic methods are body’s acupuncture system and consciousness, which exhibit a structure of quantum-holographic Hopfield-like associative neural network, with memory attractors as a possible quantum-holographic informational basis of psychosomatic diseases, of special importance for quantumholistic psycho-somatics and quantum-informational medicine. Wider quantum-informational implications of holistic medicine suggest quantum-holographic fractal coupling of the cellular level/acupuncture system/consciousness/ collective consciousness, which thus implies "downward causation" biophysical mechanism for modified gene expression. Our quantum-holographic investigations also predict two cognitive modes of consciousness (direct religious/creative, in quantum-coherent transitional and altered states of individual consciousness, and indirect perceptually/rationally mediated, in classically-reduced normal states of individual consciousness). This approach can account for space-time-transcending collapse-like quantum-gravitationally-induced and consciousness-channeled transpersonal interactions, with significant spiritual implications and conditions for observation of quantumcoherent quantum-holographic implicate order and classically-reduced explicate order. Our investigations forecast great synthesis of two cognitive modes in the framework of new quantum-holographic paradigm – where personal role becomes indispensable due to the influence and care for collective mental environment, which is fundamental question of both mental health and civil discency, i.e. of both spiritual and civil morality.
