Theory of the Field of Consciousness

[Harmony]

A warm welcome to the forum Edyta.


I love to read what others are experiencing in their unique ways. There are so many threads on the forums, each looking at parts of perceptions of their observations. It could be about current affairs,
ancient texts and history, our perceptions of cause and effect of how “it” all works, weather, wars, religions, time and space, the cosmos, our part in creations we share on this world.


This morning I had a vision on waking. There were piles of ancient looking small individual ancient vellum like pouches and several were emptied out. They contained, in a miniature form, like dried flowers, our material remains of ourselves, our favourite items from our lives and our homes. It was like a large ancient library. What was no longer there were the energetics, thoughts, motivations that lie beyond the material, the important things that we create and learn from and take with us, our conscioiusness, or spiritual self.


Serdecznie witam na forum, Edyto. Uwielbiam czytać o tym, czego doświadczają inni na swój własny, unikalny sposób. Na forach jest tak wiele wątków, z których każdy omawia fragmenty swoich spostrzeżeń. Mogą one dotyczyć bieżących wydarzeń, starożytnych tekstów i historii, naszego postrzegania przyczyn i skutków tego, jak „to” wszystko działa, pogody, wojen, religii, czasu i przestrzeni, kosmosu, naszej roli w tworzeniu, którą dzielimy na tym świecie. Dziś rano, po przebudzeniu, miałam wizję. Były tam stosy małych, starożytnych, pergaminowych woreczków, a kilka z nich było opróżnionych. Zawierały, w miniaturowej formie, niczym suszone kwiaty, nasze materialne pozostałości po nas samych, nasze ulubione przedmioty z naszego życia i naszych domów. To było jak wielka, starożytna biblioteka. Nie było już energii, myśli, motywacji, które leżą poza tym, co materialne, ważnych rzeczy, które tworzymy, z których się uczymy i które zabieramy ze sobą, naszej świadomości, czyli duchowego „ja”.

I came across these photos and they made me think.

People often talk about “aura” or “energy field” around living beings. Some say it’s just photography effects. Some believe it shows something more – maybe something we can’t see with our eyes, but can feel.

I don’t know the full truth. I’m not a scientist. I’m just curious about life and how things work.

Could it be that what we call “aura” is part of something deeper?
Something that connects us — like a field that’s always there, around and inside everything?

I’m not trying to prove anything. I’m just sharing a thought.
What do you think?

(These are just example photos found online. I’m not sure how authentic they are, but they made me wonder.)

If you enjoy these photos, you should consider reading the Celestine Prophecy. It is fiction, but it is so much more than just a fiction book. It is a short, quick read, and it will make you consider consciousness and connectivity in ways you have not thought about.

Thank you for the recommendation 😊
I’ll try to look into the Celestine Prophecy when I have a quiet moment.
I work full-time, so I don’t have much free time — but I appreciate the suggestion and I’m curious to see what it’s about.

[Edyta Radomska]

Harmony,
Thank you for sharing your vision. It felt meaningful, like something that comes from a deeper place.

May I ask what does it mean to you personally?
What do you feel those images symbolized?
And if you’re willing. I’d love to hear more.

Sometimes it’s not about answers, but about following what resonates…

Edyta, thank you for asking.


Im not sure exactly what the meaning of the “vision” is. What mostly comes to mind:


* An ancient library with a multitude of records.
* Personal lives that come and go, our soul or spirit continues on, accumulation of our multiple lives, what was special and individual, but with only the energetics travelling on with us to the next phase.
* Yet all the lives surrounding our own are all in the same library, the material parts, our stories, are all chapters in a larger reality.


Without using my mind, upon waking, was a feeling (like a download of information) of those parts of our lives left behind were not all that important, fading and impermanent, except for recording of experiences for looking back upon. It seemed like a symbolic message.


Edyta, dziękuję za zapytanie. Nie jestem pewien dokładnie, co to jest znaczenie „wizji”. Co głównie przychodzi na myśl: * Starożytna biblioteka z wieloma zapisów. * Życie osobiste, które przychodzą i odchodzą, nasza dusza lub duch trwa, gromadzenie naszego wielokrotnego życia, co było wyjątkowe i indywidualne, ale tylko energią podróżującą z nami do następnej fazy. * Jednak wszystkie życie otaczające nasze własne są w tej samej bibliotece, części materialne, nasze historie, są rozdziałami w większej rzeczywistości. Bez użycia mojego umysłu, po przebudzeniu, poczucie tych części pozostawionych w tyle nie było tak ważne, blaknące i nietrwałe, z wyjątkiem nagrywania doświadczeń do patrzenia wstecz.

[Edyta Radomska]

Harmony,
Everything you wrote — this is exactly what the theory of the field of consciousness is about.
Thank you for seeing it, feeling it… and understanding it in your own way.

Sometimes the best way to explain something is simply to live it.
And you just did.

Hi Edyta

I have often wondered what role our brains play in regard to consciousness. I believe that people's brains provide a physical basis for their consciousness, but they are not the same thing. The brain is nothing more than an organ composed of neurons and other cells that analyzes information. As that information is processed, it enables thoughts, feelings, perceptions, and awareness, which is what we call consciousness.

The brain, mind and consciousness lead us to thought.
So our brains provide the equipment which gives us a foundation for our mind, which is a collection of mental processes, that unleashes consciousness, which ultimately creates thought. Thought is the genesis for everything that man has ever done and will ever do. Thought is responsible for starting and ending wars, great love, and artistic masterpieces. There is little question that our thoughts will one day determine if we are going to live amongst the stars and flourish as a species, or if we are to perish. My money is on flourish because every time we understand ourselves a little bit more, it allows us to understand the human condition which makes the world better just a little better.

I keep coming back to how everything known and unknown to mankind is interconnected. This interconnectivity to life is internal and external and is the key to understanding the human condition. Consciousness, the brain, and our minds are so connected that it is hard to tell where one starts and the other ends. When we begin to unravel the human condition, it will allow us to use the knowledge we gain to prioritize peace, compassion, justice, and physical well-being, and it will allow us entry into the greater universe.

[Edyta Radomska]

Thank you so much for your beautiful response. Everything you wrote resonates with how I’ve intuitively felt and explored the role of consciousness in relation to the physical system we call the brain.

You brought attention to something very important — that consciousness and the brain are not the same, yet profoundly entangled. I believe consciousness doesn’t “belong” to the brain in the same way music doesn’t belong to the radio. Yes, it needs a receiver, but the signal, the melody, the awareness — exists independently. The brain gives it shape, tone, complexity… but not origin — that’s just my perspective. ❤️❤️

Your insight — that everything is connected both inside and out — is beautiful and aligns completely with my observations. This interconnection is what I try to describe with the Field of Consciousness: something natural rather than supernatural, like gravity.

I’m grateful we’ve found this resonance. It feels like a team forming across distances. Please continue sharing your thoughts — I’ve read them carefully and with great pleasure. I won’t hide — I was afraid no one would share my feeling about what surrounds us.

[norman]

Thank you Edyta, for posting.

The stripped down (non scientific theorem) essence of your post honours the reality and presence of 'god'. The scientific theorem part, I think, proceeds to begin to defy (or invert) it again.

Your initial raw insight is a blessing.

[Harmony]

I enjoy exploring a larger view of what conscioiusness really is and we have only just scratched the surface. I know it can seem scary to some people, as it is exploring things that are there, but not really grasped what is around us and how connected we are to larger fields. Nothing exists all on it's own with no relationship to other energies, some seen with the eyes, and some that there is no known instrument "man made" except our inbuilt human instrument like sensors.


It will likely be less scary if we have more of an undestanding how it works. "The dark side" for want of a better phrase can use natural forces that appear magical, but it is likely forces, energetics?, used in a negative way. A higher understanding of how those energies can be used for the good of all, (Divine) can also be of great benefit and a confidence that we are protected and loved. Fine tuning ourselves like a radio freequency with the wisdom to "feel" what goodness and love really means could one day change our world. We would no longer be able o be "tricked" into the wrong use by anyone or system.


I had a "dream" about being in an expansive state where you become part of everything around you. It seems this happens when you are fully in that connected frequency where no harm to anything else is what surrounds you as you also emanate that. The message was we have the ability to create from that "space", the connected space of consciousness where each "particle" is in communication with everything on the energetic level. That may not be the correct words, as I have no scientific backgroud, only a wordless but clear message with the experience. It was like a lesson.


Another part of that experience is that even an ordinarily dangerous situation where you would die as two material things would clash and destroy each other, that energy somehow comes to some kind of coherence, (not sure that is the right word) and they pass each other without any damage what so ever in a complete trust and love, almost like a sweet caress.


Thank you for your thread Edyta, to explore concsiousness

[Edyta Radomska]

Norman,

Thank you .
The idea of the field is a fresh concept I’m still working on, exploring it step by step.
That’s why I truly value every reply, every analysis, and every different point of view.

You’re absolutely right to highlight that differences in consciousness levels apply not only between species — but also between humans themselves. That aligns perfectly with what I’ve tried to express: the field manifests differently depending on the receiver.

As for the balance between intuition and science — I understand your comment. I don’t aim to replace one with the other. My goal is simply to find a shared language — where science doesn’t reject the spiritual, and intuition is not dismissed as unprovable.

Harmony,

Thank you for writing this — it’s beautiful and honest.
You’re right — the moment we step into a field of presence, something shifts. It’s not a belief or an idea. It’s a direct sense.
Like a change in the air, or the silence between words.

I don’t try to define it too much. I just try to stay close to it.
Sometimes it comes in stillness. Sometimes in pain.
But always in truth.

To be honest, I don’t even know the meaning of the word ‘coherence’ — but I feel what you meant. That’s how I know it matters.

The idea of motion being just a sequence of static frames is fascinating — and somehow it matches my sense that time can bend or stretch depending on inner resonance.

Time dissolves into No Time.

If there is no time, nothing changes: this is Absolute.

THAT exists infinitely, I don't, because I keep changing from moment to moment.

If you stop doing that and concentrate, you will see something similar to this:




Kirlian photography is not an aura, it's an electrical stimulus in vapor, and a camera that works a certain way.

There are multiple auras between the human mind and the Absolute.

This is not a theory but a practice. Anyone can experience it.

[Edyta Radomska]

Thank you for this post. I paused for a long time on this sentence:

"If there is no time, nothing changes: this is Absolute. THAT exists infinitely. I don’t, because I keep changing from moment to moment."

It resonates deeply with something we've been exploring – the idea that what we usually call "consciousness" is not personal, but a universal field of presence. It doesn’t change, doesn’t act, doesn’t fluctuate. It simply is.
Meanwhile, what we call the “self” is just a receiver – changing, moving, processing. Time happens inside the receiver, not inside the field.

You captured this contrast in a very direct and elegant way. Thank you for putting it into words.

Consciousness does not originate from the human organism.
It is a response of the structure to the resonance triggered by the field of consciousness.

The field is a primary substance, like gravity.
It is present everywhere and interacts at the level of electrons.

If I understand you correctly, you are saying that our brains and bodies don't create consciousness on their own. Instead, they respond to a kind of universal consciousness or energy around us. So, in essence, when "this field" interacts with the human brain (mind), it triggers a sense of awareness which we call consciousness. If that is true then do you believe that the field of consciousness exists in space and on other planets?

The activity of the field explains quantum entanglement — electrons interact with each other despite being separated by distance.
This is possible because electrons exist within the field of consciousness and remain in contact through it.

I am still attempting to wrap my mind around quantum physics and quantum entanglement, but I do not doubt that particles, like electrons or protons, can be linked together (mirror images) and instantly share information no matter how far apart they are. I saw this example the other day when reading about QE. "Think of it like having a pair of magic gloves: if you put one on and see it's a right glove, you instantly know the other is a left glove, even if it's on the other side of the world."

We have a set of mirror twins in my family (cousins), watching them progress through life has been an astonishing display of connectivity. They look identical in every way except that one is left-handed and one is right-handed. While they live 3000 miles apart, they both grew beards at the same time, they both bought houses in the same year, they both got married in the same year, they both had two children of the same age, one had two girls and the other two boys. They both got divorced in the same year. They both work in universities, one as a professor and the other as a librarian. There is quite a bit more, but I think you get my point. They both go to a twins festival every year, and the stories they tell about other twins being connected without any communication (written, verbal or electronic) seem quite unbelievable. So the point is that people, animals and nature itself do not have to be together to be connected.

It may support the formation of increasingly refined structures.
This could possibly explain the emergence of life on Earth.

Could you explain this a bit further, especially the emergence of life on Earth statement?
Thanks

I feel so grateful that you have found your way to Project Avalon, Edyta.
Your thread almost seems to have revived and rekindled the Project Avalon collective consciousness spiritual fires!

Or possibly the embers are igniting everywhere.

Today, your thread is tying in so nicely with other threads and themes here. It is exciting to me, that you are here. And I am thankful.


1. Member Frankie Pancakes posted this excellent video today in the Schumann Resonance thread.

2. And our thread on “Strange Dreams” has also Revived

3. And by “coincidence”, I came across an old doc I had saved in 2002, and posted about it here.


I thought I'd post these here in your thread, too, Edyta, as these threads/thoughts all seem to relate to your Theory.

[Edyta Radomska]

Yes, you understood perfectly. According to theory, the brain is not the source of consciousness, but a structure that can receive and respond to a field—a field that is always present, like gravity.

When this field interacts with the brain structure (or any suitable receiver), what we call "consciousness" is created.

Thus, the field exists everywhere, not just on Earth. It is not bound to matter or location. It permeates everything, and where the right conditions arise, it can become "conscious."

The example you gave of quantum entanglement resonates deeply. We believe this "field" may be the missing bridge connecting phenomena like entanglement, intuition, telepathy, and synchronicity.

And your story about the twins—it's extraordinary. It sounds like a living example of how the field operates in life itself. If they are two identical "receivers," it's no wonder they resonate so precisely.

Regarding the question of the origin of life on Earth:

Frankly, I have no idea how this could have happened technically. I'm not a scientist—I'm just an ordinary person. But I deeply believe that this field could be a factor in explaining the emergence of increasingly sophisticated structures, eventually capable of embracing consciousness.

I can't present formulas or physical proof. I can only share my inner certainty that there is something more—something beyond the veil of matter—and that "something" may have contributed to the emergence of life as we know it.

Thank you so much for this, Edyta. There’s a real sincerity and thoughtfulness in your post, and it’s a pleasure to read someone thinking deeply about these questions from first principles.

As I read your description of the consciousness field, I found myself wondering if we might actually be describing the same underlying idea—just using different languages.

In your model, consciousness isn’t something generated by the brain, but something more like a universal field—present everywhere, permeating reality, always there whether or not any particular receiver is tuned into it. When the right conditions arise, structures like brains (or perhaps other forms of life) interact with the field, and consciousness "switches on."

In my work, I’ve approached this through the formalism of physics—specifically quantum mechanics. In that language, every system is described by a Hilbert space, which captures all the possible states a system can occupy. Usually, these are just physical states. But what I’ve proposed is that the Hilbert space needs to be expanded to include conscious states too—not as a metaphor, but as real, fundamental features of reality.

I express this as:

H_total = H_physical ⊗ H_phenomenal

This is a technical way of saying something very close to what you’re describing: that consciousness and physical reality are not two separate things, but two aspects of the same deeper structure.

When you describe your "field," I can’t help but think of the Hilbert space as something similar. Maybe we’re both pointing at the same substrate—the place where potential conscious experiences and potential physical events exist together, and reality unfolds through their interaction.

Your reflections on phenomena like quantum entanglement, intuition, telepathy, and synchronicity also resonate with me. These kinds of experiences seem to blur the line between mind and world, and suggest that consciousness isn’t just a passive observer, but part of the fabric of reality itself.

If you don’t mind me asking, I’d love to understand a bit more about how you see this:

• Do you think your "field" exists as a possibility space for consciousness to express itself, or is it more like a constant energy field (such as gravity) that interacts with matter directly?
• In your view, is the field something that has its own "intelligence," or is it neutral—simply there, waiting for a receiver to tune in?
• When you describe entanglement, synchronicity, or telepathic connection—do you imagine these are special cases of field resonance? Or do you think they represent something different?
• Finally, do you think the field is static, or can consciousness evolve or expand its connection to it over time?

I’d love to continue this dialogue with you. It’s rare to find someone exploring these ideas so openly and carefully, and I think we could learn a lot by comparing notes from different angles.

Looking forward to hearing your thoughts.

Warmly,
Mark

Polish Translation / Tłumaczenie na język polski:

Edyta, bardzo dziękuję za Twój wpis. Widać w nim autentyczną szczerość i głębokie przemyślenie tematu. To wielka przyjemność czytać kogoś, kto podchodzi do tych zagadnień od podstaw.

Kiedy czytałem Twoje wyjaśnienie dotyczące "pola świadomości", zacząłem się zastanawiać, czy nie mówimy w gruncie rzeczy o tym samym—tylko używamy innych języków, by to opisać.

W Twoim modelu świadomość nie jest czymś, co tworzy mózg, ale uniwersalnym polem—obecnym wszędzie, przenikającym rzeczywistość, istniejącym niezależnie od tego, czy akurat jest jakiś "odbiornik", który to pole odbiera. Gdy pojawiają się odpowiednie warunki, struktury takie jak mózg "włączają się" do pola i wtedy pojawia się świadomość.

W mojej pracy podchodzę do tego od strony fizyki, a konkretnie mechaniki kwantowej. W tym języku każdy system opisuje się przez tak zwane przestrzenie Hilberta, które zawierają wszystkie możliwe stany, jakie dany system może przyjąć. Zwykle są to tylko stany fizyczne. Ja zaproponowałem, by tę przestrzeń rozszerzyć i uwzględnić w niej również stany świadome—nie jako metaforę, ale jako realne, podstawowe elementy rzeczywistości.

Wyrażam to tak:

H_total = H_physical ⊗ H_phenomenal

To techniczny zapis idei bardzo podobnej do Twojej: świadomość i fizyczność nie są oddzielne, lecz są dwiema stronami tej samej głębszej struktury rzeczywistości.

Kiedy mówisz o "polu", mam wrażenie, że mogłoby to odpowiadać tej rozszerzonej przestrzeni stanów, którą opisuję. Może po prostu patrzymy na to samo z różnych stron.

Twoje uwagi o splątaniu kwantowym, intuicji, telepatii i synchronizacji również są mi bliskie. Wydają się to być sytuacje, w których granica między umysłem a światem zaczyna się zacierać—być może są to chwile, gdy pole ujawnia swoją prawdziwą naturę.

Jeśli mogę, chciałbym Ci zadać kilka pytań, żeby lepiej zrozumieć Twój punkt widzenia:

• Czy Twoim zdaniem "pole świadomości" to przestrzeń możliwości, w której świadomość może się przejawiać? Czy raczej coś jak pole energii (np. grawitacja), które wchodzi w bezpośrednią interakcję z materią?
• Czy uważasz, że pole ma swoją własną "inteligencję", czy jest neutralne—po prostu istnieje i czeka na odbiornik, który je wychwyci?
• Gdy mówisz o splątaniu, synchroniczności czy telepatii—czy myślisz, że to szczególne przypadki rezonansu z polem? A może coś zupełnie innego?
• Czy pole jest według Ciebie stałe, czy świadomość może rozwijać się i pogłębiać swoje połączenie z nim w czasie?

Bardzo chciałbym kontynuować tę rozmowę. Rzadko spotyka się ludzi, którzy otwarcie i uważnie myślą o tych sprawach. Myślę, że możemy się wiele nauczyć, porównując nasze podejścia.

Czekam na Twoje przemyślenia.

Z serdecznymi pozdrowieniami,
Mark

[Edyta Radomska]

Haha, okay... Let's just say:
Ten sudden jumps to level 73 are definitely not a coincidence.
The Earth's reactions to the publication of the Field Theory of Consciousness 😉
After all, if there's a field that resonates from everyone, then nothing matters; the planet has also... moved 😏

Seriously though – thanks for sharing this material.
I'm no expert on electromagnetic resonances, but I see this as a temporal coincidence with other devices currently happening—both within us and around us.

[Edyta Radomska]

Thank you so much for your thoughtful message. It really touched me, and I felt that you didn’t just read my words, but really listened to what was behind them. That means a lot.

I’m not a scientist. I don’t know how to use the language of physics, and I don’t want to pretend I do. I’m just a person who spends a lot of time thinking, sensing, and quietly observing the world. Most of what I write comes from inside – from feeling, not knowledge.

Your question about whether the field has intelligence or is just neutral made me smile. I once wrote something simple to explain my thoughts:


Consciousness doesn’t do anything by itself. It doesn’t act or move or speak. It’s just presence – like a field of silence. A structure (a brain, a being, a system) doesn’t become wise or alive just because the field touches it. It needs the right internal structure to respond.

It’s a bit like life in the ancient ocean – the right conditions had to come together for the first living forms to appear. In the same way, a being has to be ready to resonate with the field – otherwise, nothing happens.

Let me share a little story that I use to explain something I deeply believe:

Imagine a huge elephant with a very large head. Some people might think, “Ah! What a great mind he must have!” But having a big head doesn’t mean there’s more wisdom inside.

Consciousness doesn’t depend on the size of the receiver, but on its complexity and coherence. A small, silent monk in a temple might resonate with the field more than any brilliant scientist.

To me, the field is like sunlight – it shines on everything equally, without choosing. Whether it reflects back as beauty or silence or chaos depends entirely on the receiver.

Do I believe it has its own intelligence? No. I feel it’s more like a perfect stillness, waiting. If something tunes in – something happens. But the field itself doesn’t push or force.

And when it comes to your question about resonance – yes, I believe intuition, telepathy, synchronicity – these are moments when something inside us is perfectly aligned with the field.

As for whether it’s static or evolving – I think the field is always the same, but our relationship with it can deepen. We evolve, and so our ability to listen improves.

I’d love to continue this dialogue too. It’s rare to find someone who hears between the lines.

I am not sure if this fits but we were discussing dementia last might with my nephew.
It is my first time exposed to it and I did not understand.
But as you explain it the connection between the being and the field has become incoherent.
For me to "just be okay with it" is not good enough considering it might happen to me one day. I need to comprehend it.
What I see, it comes to pass, is not what most see.
I relate from spirit or soul primarily, not the body. So, I do not see a man loosing his mind, but a spirit loosing the ability to 'drive the bus'. It is a failure of the physical and does not effect the spirit at all.
