Is the source of awareness present in the quantum vacuum?

Mani Bhaumik

pp. 243-252

Abstract

Awareness appears to be a fundamental aspect of the universe. Since the source of everything in this universe is present in each element of spacetime of the quantum vacuum, it is suggested that the ultimate origin of awareness can also be found in that "bedrock" of reality. A possible ontology of awareness consistent with our current scientific worldview is presented.
