Michael Schnabel - 2024 Quantum Social Science Bootcamp

Michael Schnabel presents at the 2024 Quantum Social Science Bootcamp. “Shut Up and Calculate Contemplate!”: What Zen Practice taught me about Quantum Theory” Building on my previous talk, “The Scientific Method, Quantum Theory and Mahayana Buddhism” given at the first Quantum Bootcamp in 2021, I will describe the principles of Chan/Zen meditation, which emphasizes contemplation (as contrasted with: cogitation), the practice of settling the mind in the present moment. This allows seeing through and letting go of discursive thinking and habitual patterns. I will explain the importance of meditation practice within the larger context of the core Buddhist teaching of dependent origination (pratītyasamutpāda). This causal principle illuminates the dynamics of consciousness within Mind. Finally, I will draw parallels to quantum theory that include implications for the measurement problem and for our struggles to arrive at an ultimate interpretation of quantum mechanics.
