The Observer Effect in quantum physics postulates that all physical phenomenon is the result of an "all-permeating" single consciousness. This has been extrapolated to say that we are simply nodes or collections of that consciousness that have collected enough to become self-aware. It seems that the notion of our brains being said node needs to be addressed further as plenty of near death/out of body experience data shows verifiable memories (conversations in other rooms, etc.) that get stored when there is zero brain activity. This would be indicative of mind/body/spirit complex. Interestingly, most people who return from NDE/OBE say that they were told the meaning of life is to learn love. (See Documentary: Afterlife)
