BRAIN CHEMISTRY, UNIVERSAL CONSCIOUSNESS AND UKRAINIAN CIVILIZATION

Abstract

This interdisciplinary essay proposes that human consciousness functions as a tunable physical receiver, its bandwidth determined by neurochemical composition shaped by diet, social structure, and cosmic environment. Drawing on contemporary physics, neuroscience, and archaeology, the study contrasts two Bronze Age civilisations of the Pontic region — the egalitarian, network-based Trypillian culture and the hierarchical, nomadic Yamnaya steppe society — as embodiments of opposing neurochemical profiles. Their gradual synthesis is argued to form the dual heritage of Ukrainian civilisation, preserved in living cultural artefacts such as the pysanka and embroidery. The essay situates this analysis within the framework of Advaita Vedanta and the Universal Consciousness Field theory proposed by physicist Maria Stemme (2025).
