ABSTRACT
This chapter explores possible implications of a big assumption, which is that the reality underlying all appearances is a unity of the type envisaged by Wolfgang Pauli and Carl Jung. Symmetry is chief among the few notions that are built into the foundations of contemporary physics. It crops up in all sorts of contexts. There's a Noether's theorem proving for sure that important conservation laws are dependent on translational symmetries. Conservation of momentum and angular momentum are expressions of the indifference of physics to moving to a different position and changing spatial orientation. There is a form of symmetry in quantum theory between spatial position and momentum, which are 'non-commuting' variables and are also both quantum 'observables'. Human brains are packed with a huge variety of energetic events happening in ordered patterns. Many of these are likely to manifest very small measurement uncertainties. SoSs with clock-time durations of as much as 0.1 seconds are likely to be ubiquitous in brains.
