The Daoist view is pan-psychic: all matter is alive and conscious

 ...
The body of Nature is the expression of mind of Dao. Trees, humans, mountains, planets, stars are living entities. 

 Humans are a microcosm of the divine field, and have a special salvational and hence religious role in harmonizing their personal destiny with the qi field of Heaven, Earth and the Five Directions.    

Quantum physicists do not include any human qualities in their Big Bang theory or quantum field. Consciousness is a random fluke of amino acids from space landing in earth's primal sea a few billion years ago, and achieved human status only in the last five million years. 

This is a fundamental problem for the budding Science of Consciousness: where was human consciousness during the Big Bang? 

Again, without a permanent medium, material science will always be ?outside? consciousness trying to look in. Qi Science looks from the inside out.
