| | | | | This paper formulates the action of psychedelics by integrating the free-energy principle and entropic brain hypothesis. We call this formulation relaxed beliefs under psychedelics (REBUS) and the anarchic brain, founded on the principle that-via their entropic effect on spontaneous cortical activity-psychedelics work to relax the precision of high-level priors or beliefs, thereby liberating bottom-up information flow, particularly via intrinsic sources such as the limbic system. We assemble evidence for... | |

| | | | | [AI summary] The text discusses the Symmetry Theory of Valence (STV), which posits that the valence (pleasure vs. pain) of experiences is linked to the symmetry and complexity of neural patterns. Key points include the role of neural synchronization and oscillatory patterns in generating emotional states, the idea that symmetric and complex patterns correspond to positive valence, and the application of this theory to understanding phenomena like meditation, psychedelics, and emotional states. The text also references various studies and theories from neuroscience, psychology, and computational models to support these ideas. | |

| | | [AI summary] The text discusses Steven Lehar's harmonic resonance theory and its connection to brain function, particularly in relation to visual perception and neural computation. Lehar's theory suggests that the brain operates through resonant modes rather than individual neurons, and this idea is supported by connectome-specific harmonic wave theory, which links the brain's functional networks to its anatomical structure. The text also explores the implications of these theories, including potential applications in neuroscience and the study of consciousness, such as the possibility of directly manipulating brain harmonics to induce specific states of consciousness. | ||
