Encountering Complexity – In Need for a Self-Reflecting (Pre)Epistemology – Basios, 2005
We have recently started to understand that fundamental aspects of complex systems such as emergence, the measurement problem, inherent uncertainty, complex causality in connection with unpredictable determinism, time-irreversibility and nonlocality all highlight the observer’s participatory role in determining their workings.
The Science of Spiritual Psychology – AK Mukhopadhyay, 2017
Spiritual psychology begins when the psyche of the individual takes a journey on faith, devotion and love towards some abstract existence of ‘That’, which is not observable, not localizable in space and time, not measurable and non-reducible.
The Origin and Purpose of the Universe – Hague, 2016
Two of the eight questions that the Commission for Extended Science says in its remit cannot be answered by materialistic, mechanistic science are “The origin of everything. The Big Bang theory is full of holes” and “Inherent purpose in the universe”.

Systems-bound and Systems-independent Consciousness – AK Mukhopadhyay, 2016

Systems Psyche: Its Structure, Operation and Possible Molecular Links – AK Mukhopadhyay, 2016
Traditionally, the psyche has been considered to have a monolithic structure composed of mind or consciousness. From a robust common sense experience and from the experience of those engaged in inward Olympics with mind this paper theoretically dissects the constituent members of the psyche and their autonomous operations and interaction.

Some thoughts about the future of scientific observation – Tibbs, 2018

What we see as mental disorders, have deep roots in cell signaling and in failure of handling of information by operations of mind, self and ‘life’.
