The ‘Representation of Knowledge’ and the ‘Global Model of the Psyche’ (English and Spanish Version)

Authors: Carles UDINA i COBO
Comments: 39 Pages.

Since Descartes, four centuries ago, science has had to differentiate the ‘body’ from the ‘mind’, i.e. to differentiate what is material-real from what is ‘psychic’. The psychic is not material-real but informational-virtual. Today, four centuries later, everything material is deeply studied by science, be it physics, chemistry, biology, ..., medicine, ..., engineering, ... At both the microscopic and macroscopic level we know all its systems and structures, and their progressive formation processes. This progression of continuity implies the causality that science demands. There is concreteness, a very broad consensus, and infinite technological applications made possible by the accuracy of theories. But of the faculties of the psyche and its possible structure, we know almost nothing, only effects and diagnoses are known, but not ultimate causes. There is ambiguity and huge discrepancies according to the ‘Schools’, there is no full science. Thus, in spite of how much we know about all of nature, about everything material, it is totally incoherent to ignore how it is our inner cognitive psychic processes that allow us this vast knowledge of everything around us. There is also a lack of connection between the material-real sciences and the behavioural-psychic sciences, but rather there is a confrontation at their frontier. Thus, in the neurological (something from the realm of the body) science has not been able to understand for a century how synapses work, since they are surprisingly not governed by their bodily environment as is erroneously sought, but !!governed by the psyche!! This article is a summary-introduction to the 8 articles that explain in detail what this structure of the psyche is like and how it has been formed, as well as its connection with the ‘body’ that precedes and supports it. It is what I call the ‘Global Model of the psyche’, which progressively includes the senses, perception, feelings (which includes consciousness), human thought (which includes intuition and intelligence), and the memory associated with all of the above. In this model, the core of human thinking is knowledge and understanding. Its description consists in knowing in detail the series of psychic processes that allow us to know and understand, something that until now has been totally unknown to science, as has been said. This description is called the ‘Representation of knowledge’. Nor has it been established what the ‘Characteristica Universalis’ advocated by LEIBNIZ three centuries ago might be like. It is a powerful system of natural language linked to that human Representation, and therefore strictly universal. All this great black hole of science is resolved with the articles detailing the functioning of consciousness, thought and intelligence, together with the progression of children's knowledge at the age of 2; at the age of 3, which explains for the first time the functioning of synapses; at the age of 6; and at the age of 10. As well as the explanation of the ‘miraculous’ emergence of language in children at 2 and 3 years of age. A computer simulator allows its verification. The two appendices at the end help to illustrate the scientific importance of the topic discussed, thanks to their innovative contributions, as well as the lack of scientific knowledge that still exists in this area. Incidentally, they also highlight the lack of contribution made by ‘AI’, which merely rewrites existing materials. Apart from all of the above, the birth of Elsa -my youngest daughter- and the memory -the not entirely satisfactory experiences- of the births of my three previous children, led me to become involved in the subject of Pregnancy, Childbirth, Natal tie, Imprint, Breeding, and Neonatology. This resulted in four articles, the first two of which deal with the processes of information transfer and acquisition (such as the underrated mother-child tie) as a leitmotif, which together enable the progressive humanisation of the child and, in turn, bring objectivity to controversial issues such as abortion, caesarean section and parenting. The remaining two articles fully confirm the aptness of the first two through other cases very different from Elsa's, such as premature babies and autism.

Children's Knowledge at the Age of 3 Years. "Terminations". Freud's "Psychology Project". "Bahnungen". Solution to the Synapses Mystery

Authors: Carles UDINA i COBO
Comments: 62 Pages.

It is common to speak of the surprising "hatching" of language in children because it is not understood how this faculty, which has not been an evolutionary necessity in Homo, can appear so early (2 and 3 years). The last widely discussed hypothesis, influenced by the genetic discoveries of the last century, has not been satisfactory either. In the preceding document "Knowledge of children at 2 years of age", the appearance of the first cognitive processes is explained: the simplest-sensitive concepts (cat, "bug", ...), which are made possible by a "recycling" of the child's psychomotor faculties which are transferred to language (so little to do with genetics). And at the age of three, in his attempt to copy the language of adults, the previous conceptualisation together with the identifiers of his environment (his relatives, his cat "Mischa", ...) allow the faculty of intuitively managing the "Terminations" (Endings) of words to appear, by recognising without error their complex phenomenological correspondence. The explanation of this surprising faculty was advanced by FREUD in a document of 1895 but which was not discovered until 1950 (the so-called "Psychology Project"), in which he also advanced the concept of synapses (synapses discovered by LÖWI in 1921), and even FREUD described them more correctly than in the later neurological conception, which is confirmed by the most recent contribution of LLINÁS, since LLINAS he also revealed the error of the prevailing hypotheses until then about their functioning, which is not to be found in the chemistry of their neurotransmitters. The "Knowledge of children at 3 years of age" completes this unfinished "Project...", showing the total correctness of his intuitions, as well as the human impossibility that 125 years ago he could have progressed beyond what he had already contributed. Thus, he adds how synapses work, which is explained by the informational unconsciousness dynamics of the psyche, through the nervous system (the simile of the "Tele-tac" of the toll highways), already intuited by FREUD. In turn, the emergence of the child's neuronal interconnections and their minority genetic and physiological causes, highlight the informational importance of the stimulus, and consequently the need for an "aRb" relational model of the human psyche, as well as the unfeasibility of the perspectives and hypotheses currently in force. It also implies a linking of neurology and psychology, as well as the future line for the progression of both, in parallel and without interference as hitherto. In the expression of a well-known chemist, it is the third strand to be added to FREUD and RAMON y CAJAL in order to achieve a "scientific psychology". This series of papers (which will continue with knowledge at 6 and 10 years) is an adaptation of the 1996 writings on the "Representation of knowledge", i.e. what are the processes that make human knowledge possible, a representation validated by its correct computer simulation and which in turn solved the challenge of LEIBNIZ's "Characteristica universalis". Since, in spite of this validation, it was not possible to make it understood due to its many innovations, -it represents a radical change of scientific paradigm, with its usual initial rejection-, this series has been rewritten in a way closer to current knowledge in order to make it more comprehensible, which in turn has made it possible to explain various pending problems of language and psychology, in addition to the neurological ones already mentioned. It is therefore inevitably long, with many collateral explanations and several annexes, since it has had to clarify the many misunderstandings of current science, which is still restricted to its exclusively material perspectives, without having yet incorporated information into its most basic paradigms. Annex 2 of 13 March 2021 cites an article by other researchers (DEISSEROTH, ...) that confirms the certainty of this document. And Annex 3 of 17 July 2024 cites another (YANG, BUZSÁKI, ...) with new further confirmation.

[ Exploration of] Heart [Participating in] Consciousness: A [ Plausible] Padigm Shift in Human Physiology and Identity

Authors: Muhammad Razzaq Aman Wattoo
Comments: 4 Pages.

Modern neuroscience often designates the brain as the locus of consciousness, identity, and memory. However, emerging evidence suggests that the human heart may serve as the true processor of consciousness, emotion, and individuality, while the brain primarily stores and retrieves learned information. This paper explores the hypothesis that even if a deceased individual’s entire memory could be downloaded and reloaded into an artificial system, producing a replica capable of routine decision-making through learned experiences and neural-like schemas, the result would lack the heart-derived consciousness that governs emotions and deeper human awareness. Insights from heart transplant studies, bioelectromagnetic research, and advances in AI-driven human replication underscore the need to reassess the heart—brain paradigm, with profound implications for medicine, philosophy, and the future definition of human life and identity.
