Amit Goswami, PhD, is a retired professor of physics from the University of Oregon. He is author of The Self-Aware Universe, Physics of the Soul, The Quantum Doctor, God is Not Dead, Quantum Creativity, and The Everything Answer Book. This conversation is based on his book, The Quantum Brain, coauthored with Valentina Onisor. His website is https://www.amitgoswami.org/

In this reboot from 2021, Amit builds upon his insight that consciousness is the ground of all being and can also be thought of as the quantum wave function, i.e., the realm of all possibilities. The brain itself does not produce consciousness. Rather it exists within consciousness. Quantum correlations are, ultimately responsible for the coherence of our mental experience. Goswami also addresses the yoga chakra system and the process of reincarnation.
