Q Theory
A conspiracy theory suggesting that a secret cabal of elites is engaged in various nefarious activities, including human trafficking, and that certain political events, like the COVID pandemic, are pa...
Qasr el-Sagha
A temple made of large stone blocks in the desert north of Egypt's Faiyum Oasis, conventionally dated to the Middle Kingdom. It may once have stood on the shore of an ancient lake, and it is the start...
Qau el-Kebir Fossil Shrines
Ancient Egyptian sanctuaries where mineralized prehistoric bones, mostly hippopotamus, were found carefully buried in the 1920s. They were possibly venerated as relics of the god Seth.
Qigong
A holistic practice that combines movement, meditation, and controlled breathing to enhance physical and spiritual health, rooted in ancient Chinese traditions.
Qiyamat
The 'Great Resurrection' proclaimed by Hassan II at Alamut in 1164, declaring that Islamic religious law (Sharia) was abolished in favor of inner spiritual truth.
Qiyâmat
A concept in Nizari Ismaili belief signifying the abolition of old religious laws and the establishment of a new spiritual reality.
Qualia
The raw feel of experiences; subjective qualities of conscious experiences that are difficult to quantify or describe, central to philosophical discussions about the nature of consciousness.
Qualia Console
The name given in this episode to a computer-like interface Goler says appears to him during repeated DMT sessions. He believes it trains hidden 'internal limbs' of attention.
Quantum Alchemy
A practice that combines metaphysical principles with quantum physics, focusing on transforming energy and matter in one's life by altering consciousness and intention.
Quantum Brain
A concept presented by Amit Goswami suggesting that consciousness and quantum physics intersect, where the brain exists in a field of quantum possibilities.
Quantum Computers
Advanced computing devices that utilize the principles of quantum mechanics to process information, potentially solving complex problems much faster than traditional computers.
Quantum Computing
An area of computing that utilizes the principles of quantum mechanics to perform operations on data in fundamentally different ways than traditional computers.
Quantum Consciousness
A theory suggesting that quantum mechanical phenomena, such as superposition and entanglement, may play a crucial role in the workings of consciousness and the mind.
Quantum Delayed Choice
A quantum effect in which a later measurement appears to determine an earlier event. Goswami uses it to claim that near-death, pre-birth, and mystical experiences are 'collapsed' into memory after the...
Quantum Effect
Physical phenomena that occur at the quantum scale, which Buhler suggests may be responsible for the thrust force observed in his experiments, challenging classical notions of energy conservation.
Quantum entanglement
A phenomenon in quantum physics where two particles become interconnected such that the state of one instantly influences the state of another, regardless of distance, suggesting deeper connections in...
Quantum Healing Hypnosis Technique (QHHT)
A past-life regression hypnosis method developed by Dolores Cannon, who claimed subjects described Atlantis, Lemuria, giants and androgynous early humans while under hypnosis.
Quantum Mechanics
A fundamental theory in physics describing nature at the smallest scales, crucial for understanding phenomena such as superposition and entanglement.
Quantum perspectives
Interpretations of quantum mechanics that some theorists claim may offer insights into consciousness and the nature of reality beyond the physical.
Quantum Physics
A branch of physics that studies the behavior of matter and energy at the smallest scales, which is often referenced in discussions about the nature of reality and consciousness.
Quantum principles
Concepts derived from quantum mechanics that explore the nature of reality, consciousness, and interconnectedness, often applied in alternative healing practices.
Quantum Random Number Generator
A device that produces truly random outputs from quantum processes. Parapsychology experiments use it to test whether intention can bias its results.
Quantum Reality
A concept proposing that the universe is fundamentally based on quantum mechanics, suggesting that consciousness plays a role in shaping reality at the quantum level.
Quantum Science
A field that examines the behavior of matter and energy at atomic and subatomic levels, proposing complex models of reality that contradict classical physics.
Quantum sorcery
A modern belief system that combines principles of quantum physics with esoteric practices, suggesting that consciousness and perception can shape reality.
Quantum Substratum
Kastner's term for a pre-space-time domain of quantum possibilities. In her model, actual space-time events emerge from this hidden level, much as crystals form from fluid inside a geode.
Quantum Technologies
Emerging technologies harnessing principles of quantum mechanics to develop new applications in fields such as energy healing and consciousness exploration, often seen as integrating ancient wisdom wi...
Quareia
A magical training course founded by Josephine McCarthy that offers teachings on contemporary mystical and occult practices.
Quarrying Techniques
Methods used in ancient times to extract and move large stone blocks from quarries, often involving simple tools and cooperative labor.
Quatiloids
Doty's name for an insect-like humanoid alien species that he says appears on a list of known extraterrestrials. He claims they are highly intelligent but hostile and responsible for violent abduction...
Quebradillas Jetpack Imp
A small helmeted humanoid reportedly seen on July 12, 1977, in Quebradillas, Puerto Rico. The witness said it tried to draw energy from a street lamp and then flew off using a glowing backpack device.
Queen's Chamber
A part of the Great Pyramid of Giza, notable for its unique architectural features and ongoing research into its construction and purpose.
Queen's Chamber Capacitor Anomaly
Francke's report that capacitors attached near the north shaft of the Queen's Chamber gained electrical charge over time instead of losing it. He says no known physical cause explains the effect.
Quetzalcoatl
A Mesoamerican deity depicted as a feathered serpent, associated with wind, air, and learning, representing the blending of earth and heaven.
