Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:About Шаблон:Multiple issues Шаблон:Use mdy dates The eight-circuit model of consciousness is a holistic model originally presented as psychological philosophy (abbreviated "psy-phi"Шаблон:Sfn) by Timothy Leary in books including Neurologic (1973) and Exo-Psychology (1977), later expanded on by Robert Anton Wilson in his books Cosmic Trigger (1977)[1] and Prometheus Rising (1983), and by Antero Alli in his books Angel Tech (1985) and The Eight-Circuit Brain (2009), that suggests "eight periods [circuits]" within the model.Шаблон:Sfn This model has been described as a potential route towards reconciling different interpretations of what it means to be a human being.Шаблон:SfnШаблон:Unreliable fringe source The eight circuits, or eight systems or "brains", as referred by other authors, operate within the human nervous system. Each corresponds to its own imprint and subjective experience of reality.[2] Leary and Alli include three stages for each circuit, detailing developmental points for each level of consciousness.Шаблон:SfnШаблон:SfnШаблон:Sfn

The model lacks scientific credibility and has largely been ignored in academia.[3][4][5][6][7]

Overview

Of the "eight circuits" in this model of consciousness, the first four circuits concern themselves with life on Earth, and the survival of the human species. The last four circuits are post-terrestrial, and concern themselves with the evolution of the human species as represented by so-called altered states of consciousness, enlightenment, mystical experiences, psychedelic states of mind, and psychic abilities. The proposal suggests that these altered states of consciousness are recently realized, but not widely utilized. Leary described the first four as "larval circuits", necessary for surviving and functioning in a terrestrial human society, and proposed that the post terrestrial circuits will be useful for future humans who, through a predetermined script, continue to act on their urge to migrate to outer space and live extra-terrestrially.Шаблон:CN Leary, Wilson, and Alli have written about the idea in depth, and have explored and attempted to define how each circuit operates, both in the lives of individual people and in societies and civilizations.

The term "circuit" is equated to a metaphor of the brain being computer hardware, and the wiring of the brain as circuitry.Шаблон:SfnШаблон:Sfn

Leary used the eight circuits along with recapitulation theory to explain the evolution of the human species, the personal development of an individual, and the biological evolution of all life.Шаблон:SfnШаблон:Sfn
