Chaos, order and consciousness, a search through the universe for consciousness

My eBook is a journey through the cosmos in search of consciousness. Our universe consists of energy, mass distributed in space and time and is governed by the laws of nature. But our cosmos is much more than that, it is also a huge information system and contains consciousness. We think consciously of what we think, feel and decide with our brain, but is our consciousness really unique?

If we see our universe as gigantic information system there must also an information holder! This information holder must contain all the information that exists, and in my book I call this the holo-consciousness. The interesting thing about consciousness is that it is able to make choices, in contrast to natural laws, which are described by mathematical formulas. Consciousness also appears necessary to bring particles that do not really exist yet in space and time to reality, the so-called quantum collapse. Thus consciousness is the foundation of the cosmos - the universe only becomes reality with consciousness. This theme takes us along an interesting journey through cosmology, relativity, particle physics, quantum physics, chaos theory, information theory, brain science, evolution, intelligent design, the origin and history of religion, the theory of the self, free will, and much more. The main theme of this eBook is the pantheism of Spinoza, our great compatriot. The scientific results of our time fully vindicate him, 300 years after his death. The eBook is a gesture of the natural sciences to the metaphysical without becoming too woolly.
