Abstract
A primary role of science, especially physics, is to satisfactorily answer the time-honored burning questions put forth by all civilizations. It is becoming increasingly clear that satisfactory and in-depth answers to such questions can only come from a physics that unites quantum mechanics with relativity, is without paradoxes and incredulities, and which describes how the brain works at the quantum and conscious levels. Understanding that the lessons of molecular biology and computation tell us more than entropy and chaos, this work is a roadmap with analogies and quantum models that resolve many of these issues. For example, based on recent breakthroughs it shows how the brain is regulated by quantum mechanisms. Subsequently, scientific answers to some burning questions like “How does reality work?”, “How is free will reconciled with the laws of physics?” and “What is and what is not ultimately possible in physics?” are covered.
