Consciousness and quantum mechanics of macroscopic systems

We propose the quantum mechanical description of complex systems should be performed using two types of causality relation: the ordering relation ($x\prec y$) and the subset relation ($A\subseteq B$). The structures with two ordering operations, called the causal sites, have been already proposed in context of quantum gravity (Christensen and Crane, 2005). We suggest they are also common to biological physics and may describe how the brain works. In the spirit of the Penrose ideas we identify the geometry of the space-time with universal field of consciousness. The latter has its evident counterparts in ancient Indian philosophy and provides a framework for unification of physical and mental phenomena.
