dc.description.abstractThe topic of the human mind has fascinated scientists and philosophers alike throughout the Millennia. In this article the author expresses his personal view on the nature of the human mind in the context of the body-mind issue. As he looks at this subject matter in retrospective and, more importantly, from the perspective of the future, the author wishes to avoid entering into deep philosophical discussions (for which he is not qualified), opting instead for metaphoric reasoning, grounded in modern physics. In the quest to comprehend the nature of the human mind, the author invokes the concept of dark energy, a novel force from cosmology responsible for the continuous expansion of the universe. In order to illustrate the complexity of the mind-body issue the author examines the phenomenon of time.eng
dc.description.abstractHá milénios que, muito possivelmente, o tema da mente humana tem vindo a fascinar cientistas e filósofos. Neste artigo, o autor apresenta o seu ponto de vista acerca da natureza da mente humana no contexto da questão corpo-mente. Ao olhar para este assunto retrospectivamente e, o que é mais, na perspectiva do futuro, deseja evitar discussões filosóficas profundas (para as quais não se encontra habilitado), optando pelo raciocínio metafórico, fundamentado na física moderna. Na mira de compreender a natureza da mente humana, invoca o conceito de energia escura, uma nova força cosmológica responsável pela contínua expansão do universo. A fim de ilustrar a complexidade da questão mente-corpo, examina o fenómeno do tempo.por
