Abstract

The work develops the ideas presented in S. Skrynnik’s study “Unity of the Wave: Matter, Energy, and Consciousness as Aspects of Frequency” (Zenodo, 2025, https://zenodo.org/records/17407224

It proposes to consider brain activity as a projection of the interaction between high-frequency levels of consciousness and the low-frequency matter of the brain.
It is suggested that the known EEG rhythms (delta, theta, alpha, beta, gamma) represent an interference pattern of connection between the physical and spiritual levels of frequencies rather than the actual frequencies of consciousness. The process of self-reflection is described as the moment of the birth of personality — a standing wave in the spiritual dimension — a three-dimensional structure harmonizing the inner and outer worlds.

Keywords: consciousness; standing wave; frequency structure; interference; resonance; brain rhythms; delta; theta; alpha; beta; gamma; self-reflection; coherence; subconscious; superconscious; frequency model of consciousness; wave nature of matter; interaction of spirit and matter.

1. Introduction

Modern studies of the brain show that its activity follows rhythms of various frequencies.
However, the frequency nature of consciousness remains unclear: the recorded electromagnetic waves have extremely low frequencies (up to hundreds of hertz), which is incomparable with the scale of informational processes occurring in the psyche.

In the work “Unity of the Wave: Matter, Energy, and Consciousness as Aspects of Frequency”, it is shown that reality is a system of interconnected waves, where the material and spiritual worlds differ by their frequencies. It is also shown that the very notion of dimension arises through the formation of a wave in relation to the original one, that is,

νₙ = (2πν²)ⁿ, where n > 0, n ∈ ℤ.

This can essentially be regarded as the emergence of everything from nothing — from zero, from balance.

A closer look at brain rhythms reveals a very interesting regularity, which may lead to the conclusion that consciousness can indeed be considered an independent entity.

2. Brain Waves as an Interference Projection

Physiology distinguishes five main ranges of brain waves:

RangeFrequency (Hz)Primary FunctionInterpretation in the Wave Model
Delta (δ)0.5–4Deep bodily processesSubconscious (base wave)
Theta (θ)4–8Transitional states, intuitionChannel of communication between levels
Alpha (α)8–13Balance, inner attentionConsciousness (stable level)
Beta (β)13–30Active perception, thinkingInteraction with the external world
Gamma (γ)30–100

Integration, insight, coherence
Superconsciousness, resonant phase

Within the framework of the wave model, these ranges can be viewed as interference layers. The true frequencies of consciousness are much higher — beyond the physical range — but their interaction with the material medium of the brain creates a low-frequency projection perceived as EEG activity.

In other words, brain waves represent the pattern formed by the superposition of spiritual frequencies onto the physical substrate, analogous to the interference pattern of light on a screen.

3. Frequency Hierarchy and Resonance Formula

As shown in the main work “Unity of the Wave: Matter, Energy, and Consciousness as Aspects of Frequency” (Zenodo, 2025 https://zenodo.org/records/17407224), the interrelation of frequencies of individual dimensions is described by the expression:

νₙ=(ν²)ⁿ n > 0, nZ

This dependence reflects the principle of the fractal linkage of frequencies, where each new level is not merely a harmonic, but a qualitatively new dimension arising from the multiplication of the previous frequency by 2πν².

Now let us turn our attention to the delta, alpha, and gamma ranges.

Delta (δ) 0.5–4 Hz — let us take the square of these frequencies, without applying the 2π multiplier for now (the reason will be explained later). As a result, we obtain a range of 0.25–16 Hz. This brings us quite close to the Alpha (α) range (8–13 Hz), although not perfectly coinciding — which may be natural, since consciousness is not initially a perfectly coherent structure, and therefore some fluctuations are expected.

Now let us perform the same operation for Alpha (α) 8–13 Hz. We then obtain a range of 64–169 Hz, which again lies close to the Gamma (γ) range (30–100 Hz). Although discrepancies are present, the general rule

νₙ=(ν²)ⁿ n > 0, nZ

holds reasonably well.

That is, for the boundary frequencies of brain activity, a certain regularity of interconnection can be observed. However, the key point is the absence of the multiplier 2π, which is essential for the birth of new dimensions.

Question — why does the multiplier 2π disappear? If we assume that the observed brain activity results from the interference between the physical and spiritual worlds, then what we perceive is an interference pattern.

Since the multiplier 2π is common to both spectra, it cancels out during their superposition, and the resulting expression for the interference pattern takes the form:

νₙ=(ν²)ⁿ.

Thus, the observed ranges of brain waves are not the primary frequencies of consciousness, but derivatives of the interaction between two world frequency systems. That is why the observed relation between the ranges (delta, alpha, gamma) corresponds not to the original formula with the 2π factor, but to its simplified interference form — which agrees well with experimental EEG data.

In the future, it may become possible to determine the speed and frequency of the spiritual dimension based on the interference frequencies and the known speed of light.

4. Self-Reflection as a Process of Coherence

During deep self-reflection, meditation, or intense inner crisis, synchronization of theta and alpha rhythms occurs, which may be observed as the emergence of resonance between subconscious and conscious processes. Moments of gamma activity bursts correspond to the formation of a coherent resonance among the three interacting frequencies.

This state can be regarded as the formation of a standing wave of consciousness — a moment of inner equilibrium when the three frequency levels (δ, α, γ) reach alignment.
From the standpoint of the wave equilibrium model, this represents the birth of personality or mind, where frequencies come into a specific harmonic balance.

5. Geometry of Consciousness

The three fundamental frequencies — delta, alpha, and gamma — form a volumetric structure.
Initially, this structure may be far from spherical. However, during the process of self-reflection, a spatial object may emerge — the personality, geometrically represented as a sphere, similar to an elementary particle. The center of this sphere corresponds to the point of self-awareness — the notion of “I”; the surface represents the field of perception, the resonance with the surrounding world; and the internal space corresponds to the subconscious.

Different initial imbalances among these three components can influence a person’s overall behavior. The closer a person approaches resonance among their frequencies, the more stable and independent they become.

A fully formed personality is most likely resistant to hypnosis, since maximal coherence exists between its fundamental frequencies. Therefore, it becomes impossible to influence such a person through intermediate frequencies characteristic of the theta (θ) range.

6. Interpretation of the Theta Range

The theta range (4–8 Hz) plays a key role: it connects unconscious processes (delta) with conscious ones (alpha). Its function is to provide resonant conductivity between the layers.
It is precisely the theta states — dreams, trances, deep meditations — that open access to the layers of the subconscious and allow modification of established patterns of perception.
Thus, the theta rhythm serves as a frequency bridge between the spiritual subconscious and consciousness.

7. Conclusion

Brain waves do not reflect the actual activity of consciousness but rather the interference resulting from its interaction with matter. Consciousness operates at much higher frequencies, while EEG ranges are merely a physical projection — a “shadow” of the inner resonance.

Self-reflection represents the moment of resonance within the spiritual dimension — a kind of birth of a standing structure in that higher realm.

Thus, the ideas of wave equilibrium allow for a reinterpretation of neurophysiological data — viewing them not as the cause, but as the consequence of the interaction between two frequency domains: the spiritual and the physical. This perspective may also serve as a possible confirmation of the initial hypothesis concerning the birth of dimensions and the origin of the Universe itself.

Most importantly, it may serve as evidence that the material and spiritual worlds, though capable of interaction, can likely exist independently of each other. There is a strong possibility that personality can exist separately from matter. Life, in this view, provides the conditions necessary for the birth of individuality.
