Finding Balance-Personalized Precision medicine

Homeostasis maintenance is a fine line between order and chaos. One needs sufficient amount of order to perform a function in a focused manner. Simultaneously chaos is required for robustness , i.e. fine tuning inorder to adjust to the changing environment.
Personalized Precision  medicine is about finding this balance.
When homeostasis is disturbed in a living system, one has to diagnose the degree of disorder/chaos and concommitantly administer a drug at the required dosage and time intervals to restore the "balance" between order and disorder.
Swinging the pendulum in favour of order or disorder does not favour "life". Life is a fine balance between order and disorder.
AI or artificial intelligence in medicine can be used as a tool to swing the pendulum to either side, so it has to be used carefully.
A tool is not good or bad in itself . Its how one uses it.
In the nervous system it is the combined synchronous and asynchronous firing of neurons that results in robust brain activity.
Nature is showing us-"Balance is the way"

Consciousnes-spacetime

Underlying Self=unifying field/beyond space time-(Pure Consciousness), potentially  codes for vibrations of strings giving rise to space/2D (packets of energy)/information of energy patterns in binary in fields---> Strings Vibrate in patterns of binary in fields giving rise to geometry in 3D/space( Underlying Mind in 3D/No time or no cause,effect i.e. Consciousness)--->Resonance of newer strings--->Interactions between resonant/non-resonant strings---> Knots form giving rise to  particles (physics) that  interact  ---->Phase Transition from interacting particles---->Matter arises---->Constant/Background Material Brain Activity ---->Observation/Perception in time----->Phenomenal mind/mental activity in time(3D+1D=4D)/Emergent Consciousness.

Vedanta psychology of Koshas (Layers/sheaths from inner to outer)=Self/Pure Consciousness at the individual level=Atman, Anandamaya kosha (Bliss body)= Evolute of pure consciousness consisting of bliss vibratory energy,Vigyanmaya kosha (Intellect body)=Buddhi/intellect body/Underlying mind/Consciousness, Manomayakosha=Phenomenal mind/Emergent consciousness

Refs:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kosha

Meditation through focusing attention or directing attentional energy inwards dissolves the outer sheaths which are evolutes via phase transition of the self/pure consciousness that make projections of the world which result in perceptual  reality. According to vigyana vedanta, after self realization one has altered perception of the external world, as one experiences the world through the illumination  provided by the non-vibratory self and not through the vibrations of the intellect/phenomenal mind.

The Upanishadic statement-"Tat Tvam Asi"-"That Thou Art" is the result of the above.

Comment

Very interesting and Thank You for allowing to comment. I think the human sensory system and the machines it designs for observation are classical in one way and detect what they are designed to detect. Detection is interaction. And as RPFeynman put it "All mass/matter is interaction. So whatever interacts is detectable. If anything is beyond the detection system/ detection limit it ceases to exist for the detector. So one has to guess. My guess is possibilities and probabilities are infinite and the human sensory system and machines designed by it are observing a sliver of reality. May be Artificial intelligence linked to a probe/sensor with alternate/all possible arrangements of atom can detect different dimensions/many worlds. I think with present technology we are missing the woods for the trees. Consciousness or mind emerging from the brain (a certain arrangement of atoms) which directly observes or designs instruments for observation is only one method of detection.

Anthropocentric bias

Thinking in hierarchies is an anthropocentric bias.

Anthropocentrism-https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anthropocentrism

 This thinking is in contrast to "integrative /systems thinking" which is inclusive, sees the whole instead of diving into parts and arranging in a hierarchy.

Anthropomorphism-https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anthropomorphism

What is life ?

Hypothesis - Life is the irreversible exchange of energy of a living organism/system with its environment. Exchange of energy with the environment such as in breathing maintains life. When this exchange ceases to occur living organisms decay and die.
The energy patterns may be compared to information and the energy exchange compared to information processing.
 The evaporation of water may be compared to the above i.e. exchange of energy with the environment, however it is a reversible process.
Is this irreversible process of energy exchange related to the rise of complexity (through phase transition) of living organisms and the unidirectional arrow of time ?

A-Dvaita/Non-Dual- A Scientific Explanation

Relation between Mind, Atman, Brahman
Mind/Phenomenal Self [3D(dimension)+1D]-------Emergent Constructed Self-Experiences subjectively
Underlying Self (2D-vibratory fields in 2D)-------Atman/Self Awareness-Silent Witness to subjective experience
Entangled fields (1D)-------Brahman (Universal awareness)-Non vibratory-Still awareness
The underlying self is in 2 dimensions which projects/vibrates itself  on a holographic screen in 3D to form the emergent self/mind.

Insights of Advaita
What if the 2D and the 3D states which are superposed on the energy field at 1D cancel out when the holographic screen dissolves through disentanglement.This can occur during meditation when the eyes are closed and there is no observation or entanglement between observer and observed. The "screen of the mind" or the extra dimension arises only if the mind is active which occurs via sensory input (the brain). If there is no sensory input, cognition and cogitation then the mind settles/calm  down. The silent observer or underlying self in 2D is revealed. 
A-dvaita  (Non-dual): Atman(2D) =Brahman(1D)
The brain is  an arrangement of atoms like an object. The mind  is a 3D holographic projection of information functioning through the brain giving rise to subjective experience.  The 2D self-(Atman)  is the silent witness to the subjective experience.   The material objects are  3D projections of information appearing only when the mind perceives them.

The multiverse
The multiverse comprises of energy fields (sphere of influence) for concentrated energies which are in equilibrium i.e symmetry exists in continuum in 1D.
Through perturbations/vibrations of these fields, symmetry is broken to give rise to complementary pairs of vibrating strings, and the material universe arises at the 2D level which carries information. These complementary pairs of vibratory strings are entangled. Projection of this information (entanglement information and the vibratory state of the particles themselves) occurs ,onto another set of complementary entangled strings (the entanglement and vibrations are lower in this case, thus this set of particles is more flat-like a screen compared to the projected information) results in a 3D universe/multiverse (uni/multiverse depending on the interaction with the observer).
So "All mass is interaction is satisfied". This occurs at the 3D level.
The mathematics is the calculations of these vibratory energies and entanglement amounts.
Levels of existence:
The Multiverse is at the 3D level.
The emergent phenomenal consciousness is at the 3D level, emerging from the brain i.e vibratory states and entanglement information projected from and to the brain, the brain acting as a source of information as well as a holographic screen. (The manifest image-Time is fundamental, Cause and effect-Transfer of information )
The underlying consciousness (Atman) is at the 2D level.(The scientific image-Time is emergent, only patterns, no cause and effect).
