The Multiverse
As each of the seekers of truth compounded their knowledge one on top of the other, they offered the possibility that there may be other worlds that exist beyond our tangible and visible world and they called it a MULTIVERSE.
Yet, of all of the speculation and artistry of thought, we find ourselves by force of gravity, on our planet earth. The beauty of the human brain is the propensity to grow in proportion to the breadth and diversity of experience. Some scientists posit that the theory of an expanding universe into many is the result of growth, similar to that of a giant growing brain – natural growth dynamics, so to speak, within our mind and our world.
What really is a Multiverse? Is it a possibility of numerous universes that astrophysicists would call “infinite, parallel or alternative universes” that exist in the world as we know it? Is it a layering of space, time, matter, energy, physical laws and the constants that always be? Or is it simply an infinite realm of being or potential being of which our familiar universe is regarded as a part?

The spirit of our age happens upon a dominant set of ideals and beliefs that motivate the actions of the members of a society in a particular period in time. A spirit of possibility, a spirit of infinity that regardless of a situation in the material, visible and tactile world of ours, there is always a place of wonder that may be a refuge for the harshness or beauty of the world we live in. First we were taught that we lived in a singular phenomenon of stars and planets that are unique in everlasting existence. And today, we are informed of the parallel, infinite and alternative possibilities.
From the Big Bang to Cosmic Inflation, scientists have called the vastness of existence a multiverse, an ensemble of innumerable regions of the space/time continuum that may or may not be connected because of distance. Much like our relationships to other human beings, we find ourselves in a vast existence of worlds, sometimes connected and sometimes distant.
