A scientific relationship between the Eastern Confucian philosophy and quantum physics is not clearly known in science and philosophy because of lack of concrete data that would substantially enable us to clearly explain it. Recent findings and discoveries in quantum physics and other relevant science, and the Eastern Confucian philosophy are reviewed in this study. The review of Confucian philosophy, quantum physics and personal experiences of precognitive dreams of the author and others reveal considerable parallels between Confucian philosophy and quantum physics from the ontological perspective.
The essay examines the probability Heidegger's philosophy offers for interpreting quantum mechanical theories. The idea of "Dasein" in Heidegger's philosophy is compared with quantum theory to support the assertion of measurement as reality in quantum mechanics. The essay examines the non-transparency of quantum physics and applies Heidegger's philosophy to explain the unconventional quantum theories under this nature. The retrocausality theory in quantum physics is connected with Heidegger's theory of time, his tripartite framework of states of being and their interconnection in his philosophy. The lack of free will is demonstrated in both Heidegger philosophy and quantum mechanics by drawing comparisons between the "Thrownness" of "Dasein" into the world and the superdeterminism hypothesis of quantum physics. This essay increases the scope for using Heidegger's philosophy to comprehend quantum physics.
