Abstract: Shared Mind Theory (SMT) is a unified theory of consciousness holding that consciousness is fundamentally relational and field-like rather than individually localized. Individual minds arise as nodal perspectives within a shared conscious field and are experientially realized through perspectival interfaces. SMT rejects the assumption that the individual subject is the ontologically primitive unit of analysis. This canonical formulation defines the core commitments, ontological architecture, and binding thesis of SMT, consolidating its foundational structure and internal consequences into a single canonical reference.
