Abstract
Whereas the human body requires a vast numbers of atoms to maintain its intricate anatomical functions, we assert that the human brain requires “something extra” to carry out its higher mental and emotional functions. Recently, neuroscientists are beginning to suspect brain cells are not fast enough, or intricate enough, to correlate complex spatiotemporal information into cognitive understanding. They conclude that spacetime fields may be necessary to assist the brain during neurological processing—in much the same way magnetic and electric fields are essential for the propagation of light. This “something extra,” we argue, is spacetime itself—where structures in the brain, called facilitators (somewhat like Descartes pineal gland), have evolved biologically in such a way, so as to be able to store and retrieve spacetime quanta for the formation and generation of consciousness and memory. In this way, cognition is not a thing complete. Rather it is emergent, and accumulates as discretized spacetime quanta in the brain so rapidly, we perceive our own awareness to be continuous, events spontaneous. In this paper, we consider spacetime to be a field (like all quantum fields), which can be excited into quanta particles called gravitons. We then apply this quanta excitation to help explain the brain’s cognitive processes. If the brain has indeed evolved to interact with discretized spacetime, then with the advent of improved functional imaging equipment, we might be able to map detailed correlations between neural processes, conscious experience and spacetime. In so doing, it might be possible to learn more about the fundamental workings of spacetime itself.

The function of the brain is to bring into existence consciousness and memory by forming the mist into unique mental spacetime structures, and to provide maintenance to the higher mental functions by either adding new quanta elements to the mind, or removing and rearranging old spacetime elements—in so doing, bringing greater complexity to the human mind for the purposes of retrieving memories, or expressing feelings and ideas...all that comprises the entirety of each human soul1
Cogito ergo sum—How is this possible? We have argued the human brain evolved over millions of years, and did so, in such a way, that it gradually learned to exploit these dynamical features of spacetime field that can be excited into quanta called gravitons
Summary
How does the brain access, store and processes memory? And where inside the mind does consciousness and self-awareness derive its source? Instead of trying to answer these and other types of cognitive questions by mapping data collected from functional MRI, electroencephalography and magnetoencephalography, into the larger topographies of the brain [1] [2]—we take a more fundamental approach. We begin with the assumption that cognition, in its fullest sense—that of perception, comprehension, remembering, awareness, and much more—is made up of discretized spacetime elements that are created during brain interaction with spacetime For this to occur, we propose that specialized structures in the brain, called facilitators, have evolved over millions of years to perform their own unique and complex functions, which have the unique ability to excite the spacetime field into energetic, n-valued quanta for the purposes of creating various aspects of cognition [3]. The function of the brain is to bring into existence consciousness and memory by forming the mist into unique mental spacetime structures, and to provide maintenance to the higher mental functions by either adding new quanta elements to the mind, or removing and rearranging old spacetime elements—in so doing, bringing greater complexity to the human mind for the purposes of retrieving memories, or expressing feelings and ideas...all that comprises the entirety of each human soul. This is why we experience self-awareness—know only our self, and not the consciousness of another—be it human, animal or machine— some quantum tunneling may occur from this cognitive mist (demarcated by our cranium) into the larger spacetime
