Post-nonclassical Science and Philosophical and Mystical Worldview

С Б Булекбаев, Кабыл Халыков

In the article, the authors, based on the latest achievements of transpersonal and quantum psychology andmodern non-classical physics, reveal Parallels that were once noted not only by the great physicists of thetwentieth century, starting with Einstein, but also by other physicists and the twenty-first century. Interestin analogies between the ideas of modern science and the ideas of Eastern wisdom is also caused by thefact that a number of major discoveries of quantum-relativistic physics, psychology, and other Sciences, astime has shown, can not be explained within the framework of the traditional Newtonian-Cartesian model ofthe world, which was based on materialistic philosophy. Moreover, it was revealed that quantum relativisticphysics and relativity theory are based on a worldview very similar to that of a Hindu, Buddhist, or Taoist.This similarity is especially enhanced if the two theories are combined to explain the phenomena of themicroscopic world: the properties and interactions of the elementary particles that make up all substance(matter). Here, the Parallels between modern physics and Eastern mysticism are not only noticeable, butsometimes it is almost impossible to distinguish whether they are made by physicists or Eastern mystics.

Adil Kabbaj's monumental work Science Proclaims Materialism Is Dead: From Substantialism to Non-Substantialism (Iff Books, 2026) represents an extraordinarily ambitious, philosophically daring, and interdisciplinary deep exploration that seeks to demonstrate, through a comprehensive examination of contemporary physics, that materialism—the dominant worldview of the modern era—has been scientifically and philosophically invalidated. Drawing on decades of research in quantum mechanics, quantum field theory, quantum gravity, and information theory, the author argues persuasively that the universe is not composed of matter or any other substance, but rather of activity, energy, action-information, and ultimately, relational agents (fail/agent). The book constitutes a genuinely significant contribution to the growing literature challenging materialist metaphysics from within the framework of rigorous scientific analysis. What fundamentally distinguishes Kabbaj's work from others in this field is its systematic integration of multiple interpretative traditions in quantum physics—from Bohr and Heisenberg through Bohm, Wheeler, Rovelli, and far beyond—synthesizing them into a coherent, substantiality-transcending (non-substantialist) worldview.
