Gradient Is Mind-Matter: A Physics of Consciousness Based on Energy Quantum Theory (EQT)
Abstract
This book offers a physical reconstruction of consciousness within the Energy Quantum Theory (EQT), proposing that consciousness is neither an epiphenomenon of neural computation nor a dualistic mental substance, but a gradient transient of the mid-frequency energy quantum density field (\(f \in [10^{10}, 10^{20}]\,\text{Hz}\)). This “Gradient Is Mind–Matter” thesis follows directly from (Postulate III: the Non-Cumulative Emergence Postulate)—consciousness is a local, transient, and irreversible processual emergence, requiring no global integration or information closure. The work argues that neural oscillations, perceptual binding, and the flow of subjective time all arise from resonance, freezing, and dissipation of mid-frequency energon flows in biological substrates. These dynamics are governed by (Inference 1: the Dynamic Form of Energy Conservation) and (Inference 4: the Co-Frequency Resonance Detection Principle): conscious content is shaped by the frequency window to which the system can resonantly respond, while the sense of “self” emerges from the orbital irreducibility of local gradient trajectories. This framework transcends both Cartesian dualism and computationalist models such as Integrated Information Theory (IIT). As the concluding volume of the three-part philosophical extension (Books 5–7), this book grounds the “process-as-reality” ontology of Energy, Process, and the Fate of the Cosmos (KAIEPA) and the cross-scale rhythm of Gradient Rhythm (KAIGRU) in a…
