random values production caused by measurements on that entity in our conventional ‘Thermodynamic arrow of time’. If we take the view of ‘reversed time arrow’, the ‘indeterministic quantum uncertainty’ nature would disappear, as in such view any random value would NOT be caused by a measurement upon indeterministic quantum uncertainty any more; but such random value would instead be caused by the set of deterministic ‘future events’ triggered by the production of that random value (‘future events’ in relative to the conventional time arrow, or ‘past events’ in relative to our reversed time arrow)! Consequently, our physical world is completely deterministic under the view of ‘reversed time arrow’; in such view the random values are NOT pure random values any more, but deterministic pseudo random values caused by other deterministic events in the physical world. Thus, there is NO way for consciousness to communicate to our physical world in such view, as the physical world is absolutely ‘causally closed’ in such view! https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Causal_closure
Therefore, a astonishing conclusion is, the consciousness’s time arrow can only align with the conventional ‘Thermodynamic arrow of time’ !

Preliminary Solution to the philosophical ‘Personal Identity Problem’
For the detailed accounts of the long standing philosophical ‘Personal Identity Problem’, you may find a lot resources on the internet, such as: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Personal_identity https://plato.stanford.edu/entries/identity-personal/ http://www.iep.utm.edu/person-i/ Now, base on the interactive dualism model proposed in this article, I will jump directly to a simple but logically well-defined solution to the ‘Personal Identity Problem’ first, and then explain it afterwards: • For a pair of SUCCESSIVE (please see the note below for the meaning of ‘successive’ ) synergistic set Mi , Mj associated with a former consciousness instance i and a latter con62
