Parallel/Multi-Universe

Post by arshad1988 »

I would be interested to know anyone's view on parallel universes.

There is a Farman saying that here is no limit to the creation of Allah, in Time or in Dimension. I guess that means there are multiple and possibly billions of parallel universes and dimensions.

But we are lucky, at least we know the 3 dimensions and we almost have theories that are developing to prove the existence of a 4rth dimension ;-)

In his memoirs, MSMS says:

"Once man has thus comprehended the essence of existence, there remains for him the duty, since he knows the absolute value of his own soul, of making for himself a direct path which will constantly lead his individual soul to and bind it with the universal Soul of which the Universe as much of it as we perceive with our limited visions one of the infinite manifestations."

Thank you. What implications do you see this for the soul? Do you believe that the soul can exist in an infinite number of places at one time?

The creation in its multi-faceted aspects is meant for the elevation of the souls. With spiritual elevation the soul can move about between different planes of existence. There have been discussions on this aspect in the following threads of this forum.

Before the Boom

Astronomers and astrophysicists have given us insight into what happened in the first trillionths-of-a-second after the Big Bang, nearly 14 billion years ago. But the current cosmological hypothesis is that before the Big Bang there was nothing.

Now Roger Penrose, the eminent British mathematician, is arguing that there is physical evidence that may predate the Big Bang. In a recent paper, he and his co-author, the physicist V. G. Gurzadyan, describe a pattern of concentric circles detected against the universal backdrop of cosmic microwave radiation generated by the Big Bang. These circles, they say, may be gravitational waves generated by collisions of superbig black holes before the Big Bang.

The two scientists go even further, claiming that the evidence also suggests that our universe may “be but one aeon in a (perhaps unending) succession of such aeons.” What we think of as our “universe” may simply be one link in a chain of universes, each beginning with a big bang and ending in a way that sends detectable gravitational waves into the next universe.

The argument is highly controversial. But if the circles the two scientists have detected stand up to further examination — if they’re not the result of noise or instrumental error — it could radically change the way we think about our universe. And the notion is no more radical than that of some cosmologists who argue that our universe is only one in a multiverse — a possibly infinite number of co-existing, but undetectable, universes.

The question is: What do we do with these possibilities? Our answer is to marvel at them and be reminded, once again, that we live in a universe — however we define it — that contains more wonders than we can begin to imagine.
