Dear Steve,
What a pleasure it is to go through your humble attempt to try multi-dimensional time and see the mathematical outcome as explaining the singularities of the early universe with the present one. I am not a theoretician but this study of yours appeal to me as very meanigful as an experimental physicist. Physics is both . More often, theoreticians tend to forget it while experimrntalist have to remain grouded to the realities.
Let me start philosophically taking acient Indian scriptures which talk widely of different universes ( called ' loks') with widely varying time scales, as much as million of years to a single year! Correspondingly, the life scales also vary accordingly. The higher conscious states belong to higher lifetime scales! These have alwaqys fascinated me as a child when i use to hear stories from grandparents in this regard.
In my own posted essay, i have indicated the need for different Physics to tackle the very early universe. The attached posts by way of two other manuscripts provide the background for my essay.For example, there is a write-up 'Inconstancy of the Physical Constants and the Strengths of the force/fields.
The problem with any profession lies with following aqn established 'habit' that the methodology eveolved compels one to find it hard to innovate or may i say become 'unbiased ' of the existing knowledge/information.
i need to stop here before any further discussion till i get your valuable response!
