A Mindful Universe
The Light Cone Chart is an all-inclusive Tachyonic Ontology (-∞ <= v <= ∞) that successfully explains what everything is and how it works. An ontology is a Model of Reality or a Model for Reality. An ontology is a paradigm. There are lots of different ontologies that have been developed such as a tardyonic ontology (0 <= v < c) as well as a Psyche Ontology [y = tan(x)]. I prefer the all-inclusive ontologies rather than the exclusive ontologies! The all-inclusive ontologies have infinitely more scientific explanatory power than the exclusive ontologies or limited ontologies.

Physics in a Nutshell is an all-inclusive ontology that explains what everything is and how it works! It is a Tachyonic Ontology as well as a Psyche Ontology.
Tachyons (T = ∞) are psyches, minds, particles of spirit matter, omnipotent particles of energy, or intelligences. Tachyonic Psi (v > c) represents a Mindful Universe (T = ∞) or the Omnipotent Quantum Fields (T = ∞)!

Within my copy of this book, I wrote notes in the margins that converted mind, matter, and quantum mechanics into Tachyonic Physics and a Tachyonic Ontology. The material this section records some of those notes.
After my discovery of Tachyonic Physics in June 2020, I decided to take a year and demonstrate how everything points to it and how everything verifies it. Tachyonic Physics has been hiding in plain sight for the whole of eternity where nobody can see it nor find it because we have already rejected it and denied its existence. It was just sitting there waiting to be found. The same can be said for God.
The radical behaviorists, or hard determinists, set themselves apart from the rest of us by rejecting and denying the existence of choice, free will, agency, or volition. The radical behaviorists reject and deny the existence of chosen behaviors. The behaviorists have decided that every behavior is an autonomic reflex and that there is no such thing as a chosen behavior.
Reality Is MADE from Choices
I’m a mathematician, so I’m constantly developing equations. In other words, I’m constantly equating things! I find the math convincing. A Tachyonic Ontology is synonymous with the Light Cone Chart.
Tachyonic Physics is based upon the Light Cone Chart (-∞ <= v <= ∞) which extends from minus infinity to positive infinity in every direction and dimension that exists. Tachyonic Physics and the Light Cone Chart are an all-inclusive Tachyonic Ontology. A Tachyonic Ontology or the Light Cone Chart contains the whole of physics in a nutshell. Nothing is excluded. Nothing is denied. Everything is explained. Science and physics are finished or completed.
Actions are the result of conscious choices. In other words, actions = choices. Once you understand this, then you should understand Quantum Mechanics (v >= c) and Tachyonic Psi (v > c). Let me try to demonstrate by quoting quantum physicist, Henry P. Stapp.
The founders of quantum mechanics made the revolutionary move of bringing conscious human experiences or choices into basic physical theory in a fundamental way. After two hundred years of neglect, our thoughts were suddenly thrust into the limelight. What sort of crisis could have forced the creators of quantum theory to contemplate, and eventually embrace, this radical idea of injecting our thoughts or choices explicitly into the basic laws of physics?
It was repeatedly found that the classical principles did not work; they gave well defined predictions that turned out to be flat-out wrong, when confronted with the experimental evidence. Something was fundamentally amiss, but what, no one could say?
The answer to this question begins with a discovery that occurred at the end of the nineteenth century. In December of 1900 Max Planck announced the discovery and measurement of the ‘quantum of action’. Its measured value is called Planck’s constant. This constant specifies one of three basic quantities that are built into the fundamental fabric of the physical universe. The other two are the gravitational constant, which fixes the strength of the force that pulls every bit of matter in the solar system toward every other bit, and the speed of light, which controls the response of every particle to this force, and to every other force. The integration into physics of each of these three basic quantities generated a monumental shift in our conception of nature.
Planck’s ‘quantum of action’ revealed itself first in the study of light, or, more generally, of electromagnetic radiation. The ratio of energy to frequency is called Planck’s constant. Its value is extremely small on the scale of normal human activity, but it becomes significant when we come to the behavior of the atomic particles and fields out of which our bodies, brains, and the large physical objects around us are made. Planck’s discovery shattered the classical laws that had been for two centuries the foundation of the scientific world view.
Werner Heisenberg was, from a technical point of view, the principal founder of quantum theory. He discovered in 1925 the completely amazing and wholly unprecedented solution to the puzzle: the quantities that classical physical theory was based upon, and which were thought to be numbers, must be treated not as numbers but as actions or choices!
Heisenberg discovered that one could get the correct answers out of the old classical laws if one decreed that certain numbers that occur in classical physics as the magnitudes of certain physical properties of a material system are not ordinary numbers. Rather, they must be treated as actions having the property that the order in which they act matters!
There is no compelling reason why our physical theories must be based exclusively on ordinary numbers rather than on actions. The theory based on Heisenberg’s discovery exploits the more general logical possibility. It is called quantum mechanics, or quantum theory. The difference between quantum mechanics and classical mechanics is specified by Planck’s constant, which is a tiny number on the scale of human actions. Thus, this tweaking of laws of physics might seem to be a bit of mathematical minutia that could scarcely have any great bearing on the fundamental nature of the universe, or of our role within it. But replacing numbers by actions or enacted choices upsets the whole apple cart.
It produced a seismic shift in our ideas about both the nature of reality, and the nature of our relationship to the reality that envelops and sustains us. The aspects of nature represented by the theory are converted from elements of being to elements of doing. The effect of this change is profound: it replaces the world of material substances by a world populated by actions, and by potentialities for the occurrence of the various possible observed feedbacks from these actions or choices.
Thus, this switch from ‘being’ to ‘action’ allows – and according to orthodox quantum theory demands – a draconian shift in the very subject matter of physical theory, from an imagined universe consisting of causally self-sufficient mindless matter, to a universe populated by allowed possible physical actions and possible experienced feedbacks from such actions. A purported theory of matter alone is converted into a theory of the relationship between matter and mind.
Modern quantum theory was born by recognizing, or declaring, that the symbols used in classical physical theory to represent ordinary numbers actually represent actions such that their ordering in a sequence of actions matters. The procedure of creating the mathematical structure of quantum mechanics from that of classical physics, by replacing numbers by corresponding actions, is called ‘quantization’.
The idea of replacing the numbers that specify where a particle is, and how fast it is moving, by mathematical quantities that violate the simple laws of arithmetic may strike you – if this is the first you’ve heard about it – as a giant step in the wrong direction. You might mutter that scientists should try to make things simpler, rather than abandoning one of the things we really know for sure, namely that the order in which one multiplies factors does not matter. But against that intuition one must recognize that this change works beautifully in practice: all of the tested predictions of quantum mechanics are borne out, and these include predictions that are correct to the incredible accuracy of one part in a hundred million. There must be something very, very right about this replacement of numbers by actions or choices.
Someone might choose to perform a phenomenologically (i.e. experimentally or experientially) described probing action on this ‘particle’. In quantum mechanics each such possible probing action turns out to have an associated set of distinct experientially distinguishable possible outcomes. The cloud of numbers taken as a whole determines the probability for the appearance of each of the alternative possible outcomes of that chosen probing action. The theory thus gives specified rules for computing the probabilities for each of the distinct alternative possible empirically described feedbacks from each of the alternative possible experimental probing actions that the human experimenter might chose to perform, but no rules that specify which probing action he or she will choose.
Briefly stated, the orthodox formulation of quantum theory asserts that, in order to connect adequately the mathematically described state of a physical system to human experience, there must be an abrupt intervention in the otherwise smoothly evolving mathematically described state of that system.
According to the orthodox formulation, these interventions are probing actions instigated by human agents who are able to ‘freely’ choose which one, from among various alternative possible probing actions, they will perform. The physically describable effect of the chosen probing action is to separate (partition) the prior physical state of the system being probed in some particular way into a set of component parts. Each physically described part corresponds to one perceivable outcome from the set of distinct alternative possible perceivable outcomes of that particular probing action.
If such a probing action is performed, then one of its allowed perceivable feedbacks will appear in the stream of consciousness of the observer, and the mathematically described state of the probed system will then jump abruptly from the form it had prior to the intervention to the partitioned portion of that state that corresponds to the observed feedback. This means that, according to orthodox contemporary physical theory, the ‘free’ choices of probing actions made by agents enter importantly into the course of the ensuing psychologically and physically described events. Here the word ‘free’ means, however, merely that the choice is not determined by the (currently) known laws of physics; not that the choice has no cause at all in the full psychophysical structure of reality.
Presumably the choice has some cause or reason – it is unreasonable that it should simply pop out of nothing at all – but the existing theory gives no reason to believe that this cause must be determined exclusively by the physically described aspects of the psychophysically described nature alone.
If one sets Planck’s constant equal to zero in the quantum mechanical equations then one recovers (the fundamentally incorrect) classical mechanics. Thus, classical physics is an approximation to quantum physics. It is the approximation in which Planck’s constant, wherever it appears, is replaced by zero. In this approximation the quantum smearing does not occur – each cloud is reduced to a point – and one recovers classical physics, along with the physical determinism (the causal closure of the physical) entailed by classical physics.
In the classical approximation there is no need for, and indeed no room for , any effect of any probing action. The uncertainty – arising from the non-zero size of the quantum cloud – that in the unapproximated theory needs to be resolved by the intervention of some particular probing action is already reduced to zero by the replacement of Planck’s constant by zero. Thus, all effects upon the physically or mathematically described aspects of nature’s process that are instigated by the actions ‘freely’ chosen by agents are eliminated by the classical approximation. Consequently, any attempt to understand or explain within the framework of classical physics the physical effects of consciousness is irrational, because the classical approximation eliminates the effect one is trying to study.
The concept of intentional actions by agents is of central importance. Each such action is intended to produce an experiential feedback. A purposeful (chosen) action by a human agent has two aspects. One aspect is his conscious intention, which is described in psychological terms. The other aspect is the linked physical action (reaction), which is described in physical terms; i.e., in terms of mathematical entities assigned to spacetime points. For successful living the physically described action should be a functional counterpart of the conscious intention: after sufficient empirical honing by effective learning processes the physically described aspect of the felt intentional act should have a tendency to produce the intended experiential feedback.
Reality is not made out of any material substance, but rather out of ‘events’ (actions) and ‘potentialities’ for these events to occur. Potentialities are not material realities. According to the mathematically consistent rules of quantum theory, the quantum potentialities are not simply additive: they have a wave-like nature and can interfere like waves.
Excerpts from Stapp. Mindful Universe. (pp. 17-24, 27).
This I want to remember.
According to Stapp, reality is MADE out of actions.
Actions are the result of choices. Actions are enacted choices.
Actions = Choices. Actions are chosen behaviors!
Reality is MADE out of choices!
Here’s a really scary idea for the materialists, naturalists, behaviorists, nihilists, or atheists: Plank’s Constant is free will, choice, or volition in action. Go figure!
Plank’s Constant remains constant because it was agreed upon and is now universally enforced by a universal consensus, or universal consciousness, or a mindful universe. There’s nothing random or accidental about it! It remains constant and enforced because it is the result of a universal choice.
It’s ALL the result of choices that have been made! Quantum Mechanics is synonymous with consciousness or choice. Quantum Mechanics = Consciousness or Choice.
Removing Plank’s Constant from the equation removes choice, or free will, from the equation. Removing Plank’s Constant from the equation removes psyche, mind, consciousness, or intelligence from the equation. Intention and attention are a function or a product of psyches, minds, or intelligences. These mental processes are the result of a conscious choice. We choose what we want to think about and remember!
Reality is MADE out of choices!
So, who is MAKING these choices? Who is making and storing conserved quantum information (T = ∞) or physical laws (T = ∞)? Who is making the choice to collapse the wave function? It isn’t happening randomly, or haphazardly, or by accident. It’s being deliberately done. We have order, organization, syntropy (v >= c), and the universal enforcement of universal standards or physical laws in this universe – rather than random chance, chaos, disorder, or the second law of thermodynamics. Who made that choice?
So, once again, who is MAKING these conscious choices?
(T) Tachyons (T = ∞), psyches, minds, spirit matter, or intelligences have the innate ability to take infinite possibilities and, by making a choice, collapse those infinite possibilities into one single actuality. That’s the very definition of omnipotence (T = ∞)! In other words, Tachyons can start and end tardyons (v < c) and luxons (v = c) and physical universes (v <= c) at will. That omnipotence (T = ∞) in action. Actions are choices. Choice is psi in action. Plank’s Constant is tachyonic or the result of a conscious tachyonic choice.
The Light Cone Chart and common sense tells me Tachyonic Psi (v > c) or Transcendental Psi (v > c) is consciousness or choice. Quantum choosers are conscious choosers. Reality is MADE from choices. Consciousness and choice are the same quantum phenomenon or tachyonic phenomenon. Consciousness or choice is omnipotence in action.
We physicists have been calling Quantum Waves “Psi Ψ (v >= c)” for the past hundred years because that’s precisely what they are. There are in fact TWO MAIN TYPES of Psi Ψ – luxonic psi LΨ (v = c) and tachyonic psi TΨ (v > c). By convention, the tardyons (v < c) are NOT-Psi or NOT Supernatural even though they are MADE from Quantum Waves (v >= c), or Psi Ψ (v >= c), or the Supernatural (v >= c), or the Quantum Fields (T = ∞).
Ironically, a physical atom has a mind of its own. We can’t force it to do what it doesn’t want to do. We can’t force it to go tachyonic (v > c) or superpowered (v > c). A physical atom is MADE from a bunch of tachyons, a bunch of spirits, a bunch of quanta, or a bunch of psi who have chosen to get together and ACT like a tardyon (v < c). It’s that simple. There’s nothing that we can do to get them to change their mind. Observe that the tardyons (v < c) and the luxons (v = c) are currently REFUSING to do the tachyonic (v > c) or the superpowered (v > c). There’s nothing that we can do to get them to change their mind. They are independent agents!
We physicists keep coming back to the same basic concepts and questions over and over again. According to Quantum Mechanics, reality is MADE out of choices. So, who is making the choices? Who is starting the quantum waves (v >= c) and then later collapsing the wave function into either a tardyon (v < c) or conserved quantum information (T = ∞)? Who is starting and ending the tardyons (v < c), the luxons (v = c), and the physical universes (v <= c) at will? Who or what is starting and ending Quantum Waves (v >= c), or Psi Ψ (v >= c), or Photons (v = c), or Physical Atoms (v < c) at will? Who built the physical constants, physical laws, conserved quantum information, universal standards, or enforced quantum information into the fundamental fabric of the physical universe? Who is at the top of the food chain? What is the fundamental or essential component in all of this? What’s left to consider?
Well, we are left with the (T) Tachyons (T = ∞), Conserved Quanta (T = ∞), or Tachyonic Psi (v > c). Tachyons are Omnipotent Particles of Energy (T = ∞). Tachyons are the basic building blocks of this universe. Tachyons are psyches, minds, intelligences, or conscious choosers. It’s that simple. While in their native original FORM, Tachyons are Omnipotent Particles of Energy. They can do anything they want to do anytime they choose to do it because Energy or Tachyons (T = ∞) are infinitely malleable and infinitely transformable. Tachyonic Physics (T = ∞) has an infinite amount of scientific explanatory power. Tachyons or Conscious Choosers are omnipotence in action. Tachyonic Psi (v > c) is consciousness (T = ∞) or choice (T = ∞) in action. The math doesn’t lie as long as we provide the correct definitions for these different scientific processes – as long as we get our equations straight.
Quantum Mechanics (v >= c) or Tachyonic Physics (v > c) ends up being the mechanism or causal force behind psi, consciousness, and choice. Tachyonic Psi (v > c) is free will or consciousness in action. This brings to mind the Obvious Law of Physics which states that the smaller dwells within and controls the larger.
Are you ready for this science and physics? Because there is the whole of physics and science in a nutshell. The math doesn’t lie; and it’s really simple to understand. Tachyons, psyches, minds, conscious choosers, or intelligences have the innate ability to take infinite possibilities and, by making a choice, collapse those infinite possibilities into ONE single actuality. That’s the very definition of omnipotence (T = ∞) or choice (T = ∞).
Reality is MADE from choices. Reality is MADE from enacted choices. By replacing numbers with psychic choices, we get Quantum Mechanics from classical physics. It’s that simple.
Let’s summarize:
According to a tardyonic ontology or classical physics, the world is made from physical atoms. This is a limited or exclusive ontology that is lacking in scientific explanatory power because it doesn’t explain who or what MAKES tardyons or physical atoms.
According to Quantum Mechanics, the universe is MADE from choices! Quantum Mechanics is the choice to make the quantum waves in the first place and then later the choice to collapse the wave function thereby transforming that energy into something else.
Based upon Tachyonic Physics, the Grand Secret of the Universe states that everything is MADE from tachyons BY Tachyons. The Tachyons, psyches, minds, intelligences, or omnipotent particles of energy MAKE choices and then ENACT them. Tachyons are both the Builders and the building blocks. Tachyons are Conscious Choosers.
Who or what can choose tardyons, luxons, quantum waves, spacetime, and physical universes into existence – and out of existence? Through deductive reasoning, or the process of elimination, we are left with the Tachyons. All of this is possible because Tachyons are omnipresent, omniscient, omnipotent, conscious, and hyperdimensional or omnidimensional. Tachyons have NO physical limitations. Tachyonic Psi is consciousness or choice in action. Choice is synonymous with consciousness. We make choices while we are conscious or awake.
Tachyons are omnipresent waves, or psi, or quantum consciousness, or strings of energy. Tachyons are hyperdimensional energy beings. Tachyonic Quanta have strings or waves – vibrating strings and traveling waves – associated with them. These Quantum Waves and Tachyonic Waves are Psi or Consciousness. Vibrating Strings are Psi. They are conscious thoughts or conscious choices. Tachyonic Psi is consciousness or choice. This is how things get done! It’s ALL based upon choice!
I use the Light Cone Chart, or a Tachyonic Ontology, to take Quantum Mechanics to its logical conclusion. Reality is MADE from choices. Reality is MADE from consciousness or tachyonic psi.
The Tachyonic Aspects of Quantum Mechanics
It is obvious that ONLY the Tachyons (v > c) are doing the tachyonic faster-than-light aspects of Quantum Mechanics because the tardyons (v < c) and the luxons (v = c) are currently REFUSING to do the tachyonic (v > c).
The quantum state of a single elementary particle can be visualized, roughly, as a continuous cloud of (complex) numbers, one assigned to every point in three-dimensional space. In quantum theory this system again has a state of lowest possible energy. But this state is not localized at the base point. It is a cloudlike spatial structure that is spread out over a region that extends to infinity. The probability distribution represented by this cloudlike form has the shape of a bell curve in statistics: it is largest at the base point, and it falls off in a prescribed manner as the distance of the center point from the base point increases. The cloudlike spatial structure behaves rather like a swarm of bees, such that the more they are squeezed in space the faster they move relative to their neighbors, and the faster the squeezed cloud will explode outward if the squeezing constraint is released. Stapp. Mindful Universe. (p. 25).
If you carefully study the pictures produced by the double slit experiments, it is immediately obvious that when a photon or quantum object STOPS its energy splashes down all across the detector screen and all across the universe. Its energy is distributed like a bell curve in statistics. Most of its energy lands within one standard deviation from its chosen landing point. Some of that energy falls within two standard deviations from the base point. The rest of the energy extends to infinite or the asymptotes on the bell curve.
This quantum cloud is represented by complex numbers because quantum clouds are composed of omnipresent tachyonic psi. The Quantum Fields (T = ∞) or the Tachyonic Psi (v > c) is like a swarm of bees that extend to infinity in every direction. If you try to contain them, they explode outward, or go tachyonic, or go omnipresent.
There are different types of Tachyons. The three main types that come to mind are Conserved Quanta (T = ∞), The Quantum Fields (T = ∞), and Tachyonic Psi (v > c). Conserved Quanta or Tachyonic Quanta USE tachyonic waves to communicate with each other instantaneously through the Quantum Fields. It works because it is tachyonic, infinite, eternal, omnipotent, omniscient, and omnipresent.
