- TanhaaboutBuddhist concept of instinctive grasping for pleasant sensations and pushing away unpleasant ones; central to the paper's unification thesis.
- Proposed as the brain's compression/prediction infrastructure where tanha physically manifests; central mechanism in vasocomputation theory.
- Self-Organized Harmonic Modes (SOHMs)associated_withAdam Safron's framework for neural building blocks functioning as symmetry detectors/autoencoders; tanha-free awareness theorized as direct feeling of undoctored SOHMs.
