Abstract
This lecture examines the ideas of Abu Ali ibn Sina, also known as Avicenna, particularly in relation to a new field, quantum consciousness. This field studies how consciousness works and develops, a topic that traditional science has struggled to explain fully. The origins of how we perceive reality remain mostly unclear.
To better understand consciousness, researchers are turning to quantum theory, which goes beyond classical physics. By examining Avicenna's writings, this lecture highlights how scientists and scholars are trying to shed light on the mystery of consciousness.
Additionally, examining Avicenna’s ideas in the context of quantum consciousness offers new insights for studies of cultural heritage. His contributions to philosophy and science are important to Central Asia's intellectual history, reflecting the region’s rich manuscript culture and traditions of knowledge transmission.
By interpreting his thoughts through modern scientific ideas, we can not only appreciate his legacy but also connect it to current interdisciplinary research. This approach helps to see cultural heritage as a living resource that can interact with contemporary scientific theories.
