Quantum Evolution: From Self-Sustaining Fields to Conscious Brains

This article presents a novel model of quantum evolution, proposing a 12-stage framework that describes the transformation from self-sustaining quantum fields to the emergence of conscious brains. The model bridges gaps between quantum field theory, biology, and cognitive sciences, emphasizing the role of self-reference, entanglement, observer participation, and field-based logic. A final layer introduces a new framework called Quantum Non-Mathematical Logic (QNL), providing foundational proof logic based on quantum behavior rather than classical mathematics.
