Mystery of Consciousness

We are all aware of the existence of at least one paranormal phenomenon: consciousness. In this work, I turn my attention to the next curiosity that arose from my earlier interest in the phenomenon of life. I first examine the physicalist view of consciousness and then consider what has been reported in parapsychological research. I also attempt to illustrate hypothetical interactions, which I call coherent interactions, that might provide an explanation for these paranormal phenomena while addressing arguments made by Sean Carroll against the existence of active interactions beyond the Standard Model of particle physics.
