They communicate through electromagnetic biochemical signals through neurotransmitters, calcium, sodium, potassium ions, or selforganize by electric fields created by the cells. [Ephaptic coupling - Wikipedia](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ephaptic_coupling) They learn to respond to messages from their environment as a reinforcement learning agent by modelling it the input in time and storing and exchanging templates probably in soma's RNA that is manipulated using a turning machine.

[Human brain networks function in connectome-specific harmonic waves | Nature Communications]([Human brain networks function in connectome-specific harmonic waves | Nature Communications](https://www.nature.com/articles/ncomms10340)) Those neural oscillation dynamics form a resonance network of neuronal populations.

[The Symmetry Theory of Valence 2020 Overview]([The Symmetry Theory of Valence 2020 Overview]([Qualia Research Institute](https://qri.org/)blog/symmetry-theory-of-valence-2020)) In general in the generative model, states high in wellbeing are experienced as flow states, as accurate predictions about the world in relation to learned priors, this corresponds to the consonant coordinated symmetrical flow of communication of population of neurons. Human values correspond to the flow state, when we feel in homeostasis, a sense of flourishing in some sequence of actions, let it be deep work, brainstorming, playing an instrument, vulnerable environment. The aethetics, the felt shape of the experience, or hallucinations on psychedelics, will tend to be less spiky, more smooth, more symmetrical. Any default metastable dissonance in the resonance network of the nervous system is experienced as something being wrong, as sense of spikiness, sense of blockages, disallowing sense of fullfillment, which disallow of flow of positive predictions.

Deconstructive meditation symmetrifies all of experience very directly. 5-MeO-DMT is symmetry hand granade that can be just temporary if not integrated or incompatible with current metastable framework. Hurt parts create asymmetries, internal family systems can heal them. Not feeling connected to oneself too, introspecting, understanding oneself, mindfullness can heal that. Not feeling connected to others too, love and kindness can heal that. Not feeling connected to the environment too, loving nature or love and kindness and experiencing spacious awareness via meditation or psychedelics can help with that.

For example "everything is made of awareness" is a global symmetry in mental representations. ===Mathematical grasp=== Let spacestate of consciousness (neurophenomenology) be a latent space corresponding to a space of possible configurations of a hypergraph of causal bayesian beliefs with nodes corresponding to hiearchical Markov blankets that represent enabled functional correlations of the internal states with the external states of the organism edges corresponding to communication or causality or reinforcement from belief A to belief B where each Markov blanket can be seen as soliton in a field of consciousness, stable regularity across spacetime. Let Markov blanket on functional level correspond to soliton in electromagnetic chemical implementational level, coupled oscillators. Markov blanket is any given qualia. Getting reinforced by its surrounding qualia, being bound in one space. Let negatively valenced Markov blankets be parts with spiky shape more easily causing dissonance and harder harmony and sense of interconnectedness (resulting in sense of meaning) with the collective thanks to more asymmetries in geometrical belief structure, creating more density, less information flow, in dynamics. Let psychotic subagents be a markov blanket with different goals than the collective. Let hurt subagent be a markov blanket with belief structure such that there has been failure in achieving a goal or loss of important dependent surrounding Markov blanket for Its goals (usually some basic needs are not met, can relate to dissonance in social graph). Let the most felt meaningful statespace of consciousness be dissolution of all individual Markov blankets resulting in one single unified top down process encoding the felt source of all there is the most directly. Let groundless ground be a metastable in time state with unconditional lubricating symmetrifying top down Markov blanket being stable by bayesian reinforcement from sense of unity constantly giving sense of freedom to all local Markov blankets (dereifying, emptiness) giving it sense of it being a process. Meditation is about asymmetry, spikiness, disconectedness, nonvalence (resisting) reduction. Let do nothing, let go of grasping, be a psychotechnology corresponding to a neural operator that globally reduces suffering by reducing asymmetries in all local Markov blanket soliton mental representations leading to less dissonant interaction with the rest. Let love and kindness be a a special case of that in the social graph, leading to feeling more positive valence, interconnected with others. Fabric softener of reality. Equaminity too with reducing stress by increasing stress dissipation ability of the network. Both are asymmetry reduction techniques. It can be generalized to cultivating love for all that is, leading to higher valence and consonance between the self model, models of others and of the global model in which all local models are hieachically embedded. Every mind oscillates between attractors from a set of attracting states with metastable causal bayesian hypergraph. Everything that is is just cluster of stable soliton bayesian Markov blanket beliefs that are reinforced by themselves or by other mental constructions or patterns in sensory data, regularities in phenomenal and physical spacetime. Let meaning of all be a mental representation with highest valence, a topdown process attractor attracting and generating everything else, giving raise to and sense of reason behind all behavior and giving sense valuableness to different activities and mental representations, a force giving sense of direction in life, motivational field, feeder of energy and nurishment to everything else. Goals as counterfactual simulations that result in higher local or global valence of internal representations. "Evil" tag of mental representations emerging from desire to be happy under dissonant conditions and labeling that thing as direct causal mode generating dissonance in both phenomenology and physical world. Internal Family Systems is psychotechnology activating and healing, aligning hurt subagents. Mindfulness is giving valence->meaning to raw sensory data. Statistical hulls keep things stable. Going to the Felt "core" penetrates this statistical hull. A lot of theraphy is based on using empathy as ways to open that coping statistical hull and dissolve/transform that dissonant belief, such as internal family systems, and selfimprovement Is about implementing stable positive ones that are selfreinforcing enough by external evidence or evidence from other mental representations, such as healthy lifestyle frameworks. Deconstrtive meditation is also a lot about dissolving the statistical hulls of clusters of bayesian beliefs that can be analyzed as particle waves.
