Feelings of Knowing - Fundamental Interoceptive Patterns (FoK-FIP): a magnetic monopole-like "pure mental" process fundamental to subjective feelings and self-awareness.

The Feelings of Knowing - Fundamental Interoceptive Patterns (FoK-FIP) is a transdisciplinary theory developed to explain elusive phenomena suspected to exist that do not easily lend themselves to empirical measurement. The FoK-FIP theory posits that specialized self-generated biomagnetism and "pure mental" process share similarities with the hypothetical elementary particle described in particle physics, magnetic monopoles with a magnetic charge. Feelings of Knowing (FoK) are "awareness charge" that are self-generated events. Fundamental Interoceptive Patterns (FIP) are restricted oscillatory magnetic fields that are FoK caused phenomena. Further, FoK produces "cognitive force," an observing ego representing specialized interoceptive awareness. Through embodied states, FoK-FIP acts as a "biological node," an informational processing unit in which physiological signals and an observing ego's sensations or feelings are centered. An observing ego cognitively broadcasts using specialized small magnetic signals and four phases of a narrowed range of interoceptive signals. By defining interoceptive signals (i.e., signals of the body's internal state) using FoK-FIP through cognitive broadcasting, an observing ego creates a world it projects around itself. This process is understood through the components map with interoceptive markers (IMs), a novel algorithm based on biological evolution. FoK-FIP-related predictions are described as are empirical studies to test aspects of the theory. The FoK-FIP theory details a path to wellbeing based on a sense of control and capacity for self-care. Mental stability is thought to change as a function of an observing ego's volitional reactions.

A unifying theory of physics and biological information through consciousness.

This article represents a transdisciplinary theory that attempts, in a nonmathematical way, to reconcile some contemporary concepts of physics with a novel theory of the mind. It represents a thought experiment that consolidates complexity by melding certain unifying natural science concepts into a coherent reality. The foundations of quantum mechanics and the cosmological mysteries of dark energy, dark matter, and normal matter non-dogmatically explained may be accessible to individuals other than those immersed in mathematical formulas. Through reasoning and models, terms are defined and illustrations provided, further clarifying concepts. In this theory, consciousness represents dynamic differences that come to an end. It exists through interdependent relationships between dark energy, focal points of dark matter (FPDMs), and normal matter with associated states of mind: pure awareness, pure mental state, and mental images state, respectively. Consciousness enables the emergence of an observing ego, a viewpoint that defines conscious events but which is not consciousness in and of itself. For topics described throughout the article, there is a mental and physical aspect that through relationship produces change that makes a difference. In this way, the reader, an 'observing ego,' with a human cognitive viewpoint, may bridge the 'gap' connecting the mental and physical domains. Although the theory can be developed mathematically in more detail, the main emphasis is to provide an intriguing explanation of how physics melds with 'mind,' thus laying the foundation for future explorations into how this theoretical framework of the mind reciprocates with other areas of science.
