“If there is only one Universe, like ours, it is too small and does not allow for exercising the highest possible, absolute potential at a given moment. For the highest possible absolute potential, viewed through infinity, to be exercised, there must be not only an infinity of possible worlds (universes) at different points (times) but the highest possible number (in this case, quantity is the main quality) of worlds at the same time at any time. Suppose there is no highest possible number of worlds (not only in variations but structurally). Under such conditions, the highest possible potential at any given time would be impossible because the chance, the main source of a potential infinity, would be unable to function and exercise itself to the highest possible potential.”

“Chance is the source of potential infinity and the primary source of real meaning in the manifestation (Universe) of the Absolute. Regardless of the unlimited potential for variations in quantity and quality within one universe as we understand it, such a world would still be limited in its manifestation and meaning if it were not a part of the Omniverse.”

“For the fine-tuning to be accidental, there would have to be a multiverse and an “infinite” number of universes. Nobody has yet measured the level of fine-tuning in objective and absolute mathematical terms. This idea would imply calculating everything on every level, micro and macro, in every direction and combining everything with everything. Most likely, this would show that only the “infinite” number of universes would provide the real source for such a possibility because the level of fine-tuning in the existing Universe is so fine that it would require almost an infinite number of combinations to organize one in such a manner. At the same time, similar fine-tuning can happen in some other universe. The vast potential goes far beyond the human scope of comprehension, understanding, and observation. However, infinity as such is impossible mathematically or logically. Infinity only exists as a potential.”

“If we calculated the possibility of a googolplex possible accidental universes (created somehow just of themselves) as ours is and divided it by the needed level of fine-tuning, we would find out that any imaginable number would not be enough to organize and sustain itself to the level of fine-tuning required for the Universe as ours is or any similar universe. In other words, its complexity, fine-tuning, or structure almost borders infinity. Any imaginable number of universes would not be enough to account for all possible variations needed for only one finely-tuned Universe.”

“• The absolute “number” of possibilities is the Absolute itself because it contains this potential. • The absolute “number” of possibilities is infinity itself. • The absolute “number” of possibilities is needed not for infinity but for any particular manifestation of the Absolute in the form such as the Universe. • Any such universe, or the manifestation of the Absolute, requires the absolute number of possibilities to exist meaningfully as a high complexity. • The absolute number of possibilities is absolute potential. • The potential of the Absolute is both infinite and eternal. • The absolute “number” is infinity. • Absolute “number” is numberless. • Infinity is nonexistent. It is zero. • Zero is a gateway. • Zero is the Wormhole from the Universal Mind to the “Material” World-Universe. • Possibilities are possible only when they are not zero. • Passage through the Zero is the birth of possibilities. • The present is an eternity. • The victory of the finite possibility over infinity is the birth of life and existence. • Victory over eternity (absolute time or space) is time's birth. • Victory over the infinite space of zero is the birth of space. • The Finitude of the Being makes infinity. • Infinity in itself is nothing. • Infinity of the Being is a never-ending process, never-ending life or existence.”

“The pursuit of truth (which must imply God, among other things) must lead to God if it exists. Nothing can be beyond the truth. If God is the ultimate principle, then this principle is the truth itself. The truth is independent and indifferent to the name or word we use to describe it, whether it be the Ultimate Source of Everything or God. If we look at God in this way, God equals the truth. But what spoils or may spoil our inquiry about God or truth, regardless of our sincerity, is not God or the truth itself but our distorted knowledge of both. (Also, the problem of language.)”

“The statement that either God is the ultimate cause of the Universe or that the Universe appeared from nothing contains falsity because there is a third modality, which is that the Universe may have created itself. But, if the Universe has created itself, it had existed before its creation. If it existed before, what would be the difference between this Being and God, or would it mean that this Being is something we traditionally have chosen to call God? If there was Something, the Being, before the world's creation, the Being was uncreated. This uncreated Being is traditionally called God. The uncreated Being is the source of all creation, with the help of emptiness or absolute void. In that case, the Universe itself would be the Self-Creator, its own God.”

“Nobody measured, and nobody will ever be able to precisely measure the “spot” from which the Big Bang started because it is a “spotless spot.” Everyone knows that this spot is infinitesimally tiny. We claim that this spot is the zero spot (immeasurable) of the ultimate essence on its way into existence. This spot is immeasurable because it is zero. This “spot” is the spotless spot of absolute density and zero size.”

“We consider only the Universal Mind as the one possessing the primary quality, the essence of Being, which quality is not detectable by senses or indirectly by any means except by imagination and metaphysical speculation or thoughts. This immaterial Being, or “mind” (Universal Source), possesses the power to create through recreation and emanation of itself into existence. The requirement and essential elements of reality (as we see and perceive it) in the Universe are matter or energy.”

“If we try to answer the questions relating to God, we will again be faced more with our inherited ideas about the Universe and God than with the reality and essence these terms should represent. Therefore, we should try to enrich and redefine these and many other terms we use. We, human beings, decided that the word (term, idea) God means, and should mean, something inherently different from the Universe. We also decided that the Universe means and should mean something different from God. But, if we, somewhat arbitrarily, determined not only the destiny of these terms and ideas but, based on them, our very conception and perception of what these ideas and terms are supposed to represent, one may ask how much closer these ideas and reasoning have brought us to the truth.”

“If we would, hypothetically, explore the idea of the universe's contraction, the result would be similar to the black hole. Regardless of a much bigger mass of the whole Universe, as ours is, the absolute contraction would lead to the same point at which the black hole reaches maximum density. The point of maximum density is Zero, at which point the Big Bang happens (or the Universe disappears, which is less likely). In this sense, from the point of the result, expansion or contraction of the Universe would lead to almost the same result.”

“We believe it is more likely that there is not only one Big Bang but multiple Bing Bangs at different points in the Universe of Universes or Multiverse. Let’s suppose there is more than one universe. In that case, we cannot talk about any of them independently of the rest, except hypothetically, because there would be no absolute void beyond one universe or Big Bang. In that sense, the Universe of Universes would be unaffected by anything beyond it except the Universal Mind or Absolute itself. All we state in this sense applies to the unknown or unknowable Universe exceeding our perceptive powers and scientific instruments.”

“For argumentation, we can imagine there is only this Universe we are aware of, and we can treat it, along with black holes, as if there is nothing beyond it except absolute nothingness or absolute void. This world would be Einstein’s space with the curvature of space. Beyond it, there is a “spaceless space” without curvature. But without the uncurved “spaceless space,” curved space is impossible. This spaceless space is nothingness, and only a void provides room for the creation of space. The only real space is the spaceless space or absolute vacuum, and this spaceless space cannot be curved. What is curved is the creation that took “one part” of the primordial void, to put it that way, to create the World—the gravitational field and the spacetime continuum. But the primordial void, or the only real space that there can be, is not curved and cannot be curved.”

“The most unscientific idea in the history of humankind is that something came (or can come) into existence from nothing. Yet, since the Absolute is nothing without its emanation (manifestation in plurality), it must create Something to be Something. Absolute is not nothing just for being nothing but because it is an absolute something at its "highest point," at which there is no need for further movement, and all meaning and purpose are lost. The moving of the same thing to a different same point is no movement at all and is pointless.”

“The Absolute can only create and recreate itself if it transforms into something “less absolute.” This “less” absolute Being manifested through many beings is not only the Absolute's creation or recreation but is also its only life. In absolute Oneness, there is no real life. Division is the source of life. The secret to life is plurality. Oneness without plurality loses meaning. Plurality in Oneness is the source of meaning and purpose.”

“It seems reasonable to believe that, regardless of the number of possibilities and universes, the Universe (Omniverse, Macro-Universe, Multiverse) would still be nothing more than a dead thing. What is it that powers the Universe? We see and recognize motion; we recognize the four main forces (gravity, electromagnetism, and the strong and weak nuclear force) of the Universe, but we still do not know or fully understand these forces or the Universe itself. We recognize the Universe; we can feel it, touch it, think about it; we can describe it and its forces, but do we understand it? If we admit that we do not understand it fully, we must acknowledge that we do not fully understand perfection. Suppose we realize that we do not fully understand perfection; we must shift the subject of discussion to a higher level, which is not necessarily a higher level of understanding but a higher level regarding our approach.”

“We may win and still be wrong or partially wrong. We may win based on the merits of a superior thought at any given moment. But would we have won if there was a thought superior enough to challenge the winning thought at any particular moment? We would fail if there were a superior thought at any given time to challenge us. Would even the more superior idea be nobler or only superior in terms of the truth? Countless questions always arise and follow any serious inquiry.”

“How do we know our thoughts are the best and, simultaneously, the noblest? How rigorous is the inspection of our thoughts and merits? Are we satisfied more with winning or knowing? Do we enjoy victories and fame more than the truth itself? Our motives are driven more by winning than by finding the truth. If when this is the case, the winning "truth" or personal "triumph" can be more devastating, not only to “progress” but also to knowledge and the truth, than if there were no such "truths" and such thoughts at a particular moment. Some ideas may temporarily open some doors but close others in the long run. (Features of this kind in human nature are most apparent in politics.)”

“Considering all these elements, the context and frame from which we try to think or place ideas become more extensive and cannot be easily simplified to fit the purpose of a "winning" argument or idea. For example, the concept of intelligent design is, in a strict sense, a religious concept, but must it be strictly religious? To answer this, we must first ask what intelligent design is. And then, what may this design be from a metaphysical point of view, from the point of view of creation or recreation? How much do our particular human ideas about design enslave us, and can we even think about the design outside of our strictly human context and place it in an extraordinary context of the Absolute, God, existence, essence, matter, and Universe?”

“The visible universe contains only 5% of visible matter, whereas dark matter constitutes 27%, and 68% is dark energy. According to some scientists, dark matter may be in other dimensions. This idea is compatible with my idea of an Omniverse, although a Multiverse does not need to be in other dimensions. Nevertheless, such a Multiverse may contain material (perhaps unapproachable by human beings) beyond our imagination.”

“Since scientists have no answer to dark matter (except dark matter filament), the most logical explanation is that it is invisible. Some questions remain: 1. Can matter be invisible (or imperceptible by our senses and instruments)? 2. Even if matter could be theoretically invisible, is it possible that such a vast amount of matter, like dark matter, would escape all our knowledge and existing laws of physics and be unidentified until recently but wholly invisible and beyond our reach? 3. If dark matter is imperceptible, what makes it imperceptible? 4. Is it potentially perceptible but not perceptible to us as human beings? 5. Is there anything that would still avoid perception even if we possessed the absolute perceptive ability or technology with these abilities? 6. Or, is dark matter our way of explaining the unexplainable and offering a linguistic form to unknown phenomena? 7. Or, is it our inability to go beyond the spectrum, outside the existing frames, and try to decipher the unknown beyond the known frame of reality or what we see and understand as reality and the Universe? The answer to the first question is known; even atoms are invisible not only to the eyes but to microscopes. It is, therefore, theoretically possible that matter can be hidden and imperceptible. Still, it is hard to imagine that vast amounts of the mass of the Universe would stay unaccounted for within the realm of already advanced understanding of the laws of physics, instruments, and experiments. It would be possible to prove mathematically, based on what we already know about the Universe, the mass, the dispersion of energy and mass, and by these comparisons to conclude, without the CERN accelerator, that this is, most likely, impossible. This was a short answer to the second question. The third question is important because it would lead scientists in the right direction by avoiding the possible net of perplexed ideas. If we have already established that something exists, it would be better to define it as precisely as possible to avoid guessing only. In addition, how do we guess? We do not know anything about its nature, origin, or how it came into existence except that we came to this discovery almost accidentally by pure and relatively simple measurements and experiments. But what about us? How do we think? What methods do we use in experiments and the way we think? The answer to these questions could lead to better discoveries than only focusing on something we do not know and, even worse if we do not know where to look for it. Based on an accidental discovery, it is a good start to conclude that there is more mass in the Universe than can be detected. Still, it would be better and more productive to go beyond the Universe as we see it, beyond our existing knowledge and perception, not toward the stars we already know but toward another bottomless sky of darkness and the unknown. Although light is the source of life, darkness is also the source of light and life. Maybe the brightest “star” sleeps in the darkness and feeds the world from darkness. Is there only one Universe? If we start from the premise of the Big Bang theory, it would be logical to ask why there is only one Big Bang. It is easy to conclude that if there is a Big Bang at one point in “space” (nothingness), there can be another one at another “point,” past or future, although this may sound strange.”

“The source of 68% of the mass-energy density is dark energy. The Universe is one, even if we use the word Multiverse. If it is not one, then it is not a Universe. If what we understand as the Universe is not one, it does not mean that there are multiple universes but that our ideas about the Universe may need to be corrected or that they do not quite correctly represent reality. If this is the case, we should adapt the language to reality, not the reality to language.”

“If we accept a Big Bang (although our view would be the same regardless of this premise), we must accept the possibility of multiple Big Bangs anywhere else. We can imagine many more (some even bigger) Big Bangs and “universes” (like our own) than there are galaxies in our Universe. Now, we will name this Universe, containing all others, Omniverse (Omni-Universe) or Macro Universe. Dark energy is the “unmeasurable” energy of the Omniverse (Macro Universe).”

“What makes space possible? Just of itself, space is nothing. But without nothingness, there is no space. Space is made only from nothingness. Without Nothingness, the Absolute would not be complete, and there would be no potential for space in the world. Absolute would be impossible without nothingness. Absolute, without the void, is zero, and the void, without the Absolute, is zero. Zero can only be equal to itself, which means that even in the supposed separation of the Absolute from zero, they become the same and only one—Zero.”

“The main feature of an absolute vacuum is that it is nonexistent nothingness. But, if we put it like this, it may sound that if nothingness is nonexistent, it exists. If nothingness is nonexistent, it means that there is no nothingness. No world or universe can be made without nothingness because there is no space without it. In actuality, space is nothingness. Without nothingness, which is nonexistence, somethingness or existence would not be possible. If we analyze the previous paragraph, we come to some strange or not-so-strange conclusions, knowing that language is not the perfect instrument for expressing ideas but is still the best currently available to humans. If nothingness is nonexistent, it means that there is no nothingness. Yet, if there is nothingness, it should mean that nothingness exists. We may think this kind of reasoning is pure scholasticism or nonsense, but in reality, linguistic and transcendental are often in collision. The most abstract and profound ideas often escape or try to escape language formulations. The “weakness” of language becomes more apparent when facing Reality's formidable immensity and depth, especially the metaphysical “side” of Reality.”

“What is Nothing? When we use the word “is,” that usually means what follows must be something. But if what follows is nothing, this means that nothing does not exist. If nothing does not exist, then the question is why we would even bother saying that. When something is, it usually means that it exists. How can something be anything, even nothing, if it does not exist? So, nothing is only a word, and we can use the “is” before the word nothing in that sense. It still does not mean that the real nothing, of which the word nothing is only a verbal representation, a written sign, exists. Without nothing, there can be no largest nor smallest of anything material.”
