THE MYSTERY OF CONSCIOUSNESS

Look, from a scientific viewpoint, Dr. Lanza's "seven principles of biocentrism" are utter nonsense.

Principle no. 3 is the key one - it's a blatant lie, from which, were it true, it might be possible to argue the other 6:

"3. The behavior of subatomic particles — indeed all particles and objects — are inextricably linked to the presence of an observer. Without the presence of a conscious observer, they at best exist in an undetermined state of probability waves."

No - not true - a wide-spread misunderstanding, but not what the science says.

If you examine the classic experiment that demonstrated the quantum aspect of reality (it is not really a quantum "effect"), the double-slit experiment, you'll see that it has nothing to do with whether a conscious observer is present or not.
