Intentology (Yibenlun): Yin-Yang Interaction Thinking and Quantum Thinking

Abstract

Leveraging the philosophical foundation of the Intentology or intention noumenon theory (yibenlun), this paper explores the commonality and correlation between traditional Chinese Yin-Yang interaction thinking and quantum thinking and summarizes their significance in philosophy and interdisciplinary research. Specifically, the wave-particle duality is similar to the interaction of Yin and Yang between consciousness and the body; the observer effect aligns with the idea of subject-object unity in the Intentological epistemology; and quantum entanglement parallels the interaction of Yin and Yang between humanity and the universe in the intention noumenon perception theory, reflecting integrity and non-locality. These similarities suggest that both Yin-Yang interaction thinking and quantum thinking emphasize the dynamism, integrity, and uncertainty of the world, breaking through the traditional binary opposition concept. Scholars of the Intentological are dedicated to facilitating the integration of Yin-Yang interaction thinking with quantum thinking. This integration not only offers a novel perspective for exploring the connections between humanity and nature and the world but also introduces innovative approaches for interdisciplinary research in domains such as physics, psychology, and medicine, contributing to the multidimensional progression of contemporary philosophy.
