Schopenauer’sphilosophy influencesSchroedinger, NielsBohr and other physicsexperts who form partof the originalfountainhead of so-called QuantumMechanics

With “The Tao of Physics” (1970) byFrithjof Capra and so-called “QuantumMysticism”, onewitnesses a return to thevision of the so-calledinterconnected reality.

Penrose’s Theory of Consciousness

ParaPsychological research inRUSSIAIn the 1920’s and 1930’s, LeonidVasiliev publishes the book“Experiments in Mental suggestion”by reproducing Puysegur’sexperiences

Recent researches inthe field of paranormalphenomena

More physiological approaches More spiritual approaches

Definition of the hypnotic and magnetic trend: 1)magnetism - trance as expansion of consciousness or 2) hypnotism as “automatism”

Hypnotism -trance = Automatism.
