Essay AbstractREALITIES out of TOTAL SIMULTANEITY After the wall of Planck reality as we perceive it now no longer exists, we are entering a “fifth” dimension the TOTAL SIMULTANAIETY , called TS . This TS can be “reached” on every point of our 4 dimensional universe, every quantum of the universe has the diameter of 10 force -33cm, singularities only exist in our consciousness. In this TS all information of all parallel universes and multiversity constitution is simultaneously present and available, our consciousness is able to align points out of this TS and so create the observable analogue universe. The totality of information from other universes (also partly observable by other consciousnesses) is influencing our linear causal deterministic universe, the origin of gravity , dark matter and the dark force. The Big Bang is an imaginary non existing point in the TS area. Inflation is avoided by projecting inflation time into the area after the Wall of Planck, uniformity in the structure of space-time is guaranteed. Our mind with its 100 billion neurones is able to cope with infinities because it has parallels with the qualities of TS. We observe 4 realities : 1. quantum multi reality (quantum qubits), the origin. 2. analogue reality (sequence of points in TS) 3. digital virtual sub-reality (sequence of bits in analogue reality) 4. social analogue reality (sequence of human qubits) Quantum computers when approached as different from our digital sub-sequential bit computers can evolve as a future tool to be related with the so called parallel Universes.

Dear Wil
I'm surprised at the lack of posts so far, and at your lowly position. I suppose it may be to do with the way people think, and our common architectural training has allowed a far broader perceptual 'language'.
I agree with no 'big bang', and that GR and QM as currently interpreted cannot be united, also indeed the spiral as a key form and mechanism (equivalent to DNA). I shall help you to a more respectable score, and hope you may also enjoy and score my own empirically based essay, which offers a local and real way around cyrrent issues.

Dear Wilhelmus de Wilde,
It's hard to read all essays, and I come to you because of a comment you made to Zenil:
You said "in my opinion there is a difference between Intelligence and Consciousness, with our total intelligence we can construct the LHC, but it is our consciousness that asks always WHY, like a child that won't stop asking WHY, the HOW is the intelligence and the Why our consciousness, the intelligence can be constructed by our (Turing)machines, but the consciousness until now we could not reproduce so this is perhaps not a digital "substance", so not reproducible in the digital way (?), like a piece of art, you can copy it but the copy will never be the original."
I have been frustrated by many fqxi conversations over the failure to distinguish between consciousness and intelligence. We seem to clearly agree. Thank you.
I define consciousness as awareness plus volition (free will)
I define intelligence as consciousness plus logic
where by logic I mean the physical logical 'hardware' such as the Turing machine you reference, or the neural connectivity of our brains.
I would invite you to read my
essay which is based on the unity of an analog universe that attempts to establish the best correspondence between the model and the whole. It is the sister essay to my previous essay on consciousness.
I agree with a number of statements in your essay, such as: "no separate past, no separate now and no separate future. It is the All in One, the Total Simultaneity." Others, such as Georgina Parry, have developed this or an equivalent perspective in other blogs.
If I understand you correctly, you are positing consciousness in the larger universe, and 'intelligence' in the self-evolved neural computing machinery. This is essentially what I wrote my previous fqxi essay on
Fundamental Physics of Consciousness, the sister of my current essay.
To deal with physical reality and consciousness in ten pages is impossible, and there is no chance that our two essays would overlap in every detail, but I think we agree on some key points.
My current essay in this contest is ranked much higher than my previous essay on consciousness, so I hope that you enjoy my essay, and ask if you do to vote for me.
Thank you for writing about consciousness. I am convinced (with Penrose and a few others) that any serious theory of physics must include consciousness.

I derive an equation for consciousness in my Essay (Eq. 1), which in technical english states that 'consciousness' is: consciousness is sometimes a wave that not observed whether detected or not, and always the result of an observation of a detection of a particle.
Nobody cared then, nobody cares now, and nobody will care in the future when I do the same, but will derive another equation for C, using results [in technical English] from the LHC. They will continue not to care as I equate this new equation to the one mentioned above from the essay. And still caring less, they will ignore the fact that when these two derived equations are equated, the result will be an equation in which the classic young's double-slit experiment is expressed in terms of said LHC results, and vice versa. All with no mention of consciousness, which is required [at some point] in all human experimentation/interpretation. At that point, some may start to care. Enough to steal my idea, have a laugh at my non-professional attempt and develop it further. Then it's back to the not caring. Maybe I should just stop taking it personal i'm being ignored in these threads and that my essay is so bad (apparently) it's not even worth acknowledging. Adeiu!

Oh yeah, almost forgot. While we are all concentrating fiercly on not caring about my threads or essay, it's worth mentioning that in the same essay, I derive equations for each of Asimov's Three Laws of Robotics. If I had more time, I would manipulate those equations and transform them into one equation, where all three laws are represented. The technical english interpretations would speak of each law in terms only of the other two laws. If you love I. Asimov (or even the field of robotics which he invented), this would be a fascinating result. And a great source of plot ideas for future 3 laws books, incidentally. OK, go back to not caring. And I'll try to care just a little less too.

Good morning to you Tommy,
Sorry for my late reply but I expected that all the new posts would be at the end of this blog.
I have read with much interest your essay, you are very much trying indeed to make equations, these equations however contain one item that seems to me difficult to accept as a "unit", being the SOUL.
The human being has "consciousness" as have other beings, the consciousness of mankind is a DIFFERENT one from other species, even in the time line you would be able to detect a form of consciousness in mineral objects, only changes there do not occur in the human rythm of heartbeat, when we look at the Universe as a whole it can have also a rytm that could indicate a (for us) superconsciousness, perhaps we can also call this SOUL, what is in a name ? So in so far we agree, but I cannot understand why we have to put this in a formula, first of all I don't think that we are talking measurable quanta , mankind is trying always to UNDERSTAND its relative reality and in order to do so invents tricks as equations, formula's , dimensions etc (I am doing the same inmy essay, therefore you call it ESSAY), but we will never be able to come to a full understanding in our 4-D causal deterministic universe.
In your interpretations you pose that consciousness is always the result of an observation , in order to observe you ha
Author Wilhelmus de Wilde de Wilde replied on Jul. 19, 2011 @ 08:52 GMT
Sorry I struck the wrong button...
So in order to observe you have to be conscious, otherwise ..... We are entering here a spiral thought that can go on in infinity, we can solve this problem by accepting that consciousness is quality in our universe that (see my essay) goes further then our 4-D causal deterministic universe and allows for example humans to have a connection with the T.S. (Total Simultaneity) in order to form a understandable causal life-line.
In this way of thinking (I do not say it is the truth but only one of the many ways that we can try to understand, because the final truth is not existing) we can also understand other forms of consciousness with different time lines , constituted from different material as the baryonic particles (dark matter, anti matter) etc.
You mention : "the Universe of all mathematics, where all of the Universe of Reality is contained as apart of this greater Universe", well here we both say the same, again what is in a name, your mathematics (that include infinities) are a form of non causal thinking, the same as in my Total Simultaneity. Causal Time is the effect that gives a meaning to our consciuosness of the subjective reality.
You mention : "the infinity of the anlogue we are living in NOW." If we were living in the infinity the NOW moment could not exist because we would never be able to reach it in a causal way, our world in my opinion is surrounded by limits, like the Planck Length and time, the infinity is in our consciousness because of the fact that it can "feel" the other fifth non causal dimension.
In your post you say that your ideas may be used by others , I would be proud if others would become a better man by using my ideas, the FAME is of no importance, isn't it so that all our ideas and inventions are based on the ideas and inventions of others who were thinking before us ?
I look forward too your answers

Dear Wilhelmus,
I liked your comparison of the quintessence to hyperspace. I have been talking about 5-fold (pentality) symmetries for a couple of years. I think it is the origin of mass, and you correctly emphasize that we only know about the 5% baryonic matter - not dark mass, dark energy, etc.
Our ideas have more similarities than differences, perhaps because the Sun was travelling through the same patterns of stars for our births (your birthday is July 26, mine is July 25, although I'm younger...).
I agree that the Black Hole "singularity" is not a singularity. Your point was that an extra dimension of size 10^-31 cm is sufficient to prevent a true infinity. I like your ideas on Consciousness, although this borders on Philosophy (that's OK - I like Philosophy).
I disagree on the Big Bang and Inflation. I think that the Big Bang was a singularity that must exist in the seemingly infinite Multiverse. In this sense, the Multiverse may seem to have always existed, but a broken TOE symmetry could have produced the phase transition necessary for an event such as Inflation to produce many self-similar scales. Our Universe is a small fractal fragment of dust within an infinite Cantor set.
You made a small error - I think on page 7. You quoted the temperature of the Cosmic Background Radiation with a comma rather a decimal point - To me that implies a number a thousand times larger.
Good Luck in the essay contest & Have Fun!

p.s. - I was thinking about your spiral time. I think that there are at least two different kinds of time. I also think that there are multiple scales. B.N. Sreenath suggested that we need logarithmic spirals to fit larger and smaller scales (my reinterpretation of his ideas).

Wilhelmus,
Do you not see a connection between the singularities of Big Bang and super-massive black holes? I see analogue in this relationship, especially with equations of string theory compatible with some singularities. The connection seems to support both in a recycled universe.
Enjoyed your essay.

Dear James,
In fact I came to my idea of the ultimate limits of our 4-d Universe while studying articles about what happened before the big bang, there we encounter the Planck Scale, after that nothing is anymore measurable , you enter the Multiverse (like in the Kaluza-Klein proposition and Calabi-Yau, only my approach is not mathematical because I think we cannot describe a "fifth" dimension with the senses and means we have available), the singularity of the so called BB is no longer present it becomes a point in the Multiverse.
I applied the same reasoning to a black hole, for there also we have to approach the untill now accepted singularity, but there we will meet the same problem of the Planck Scale (perhaps gravity becomes as strong as other forces, and infact GR predicts : any experiment with enough energy to probe the Planck Lenght must nececerrily form a black hole in the process (FQXi Blogs : Topic : The planck Scale : Gravity's ultimate limit, blogger Mark Wyman))
In fact we meet at every point (not only the high energy points in black holes) in sace/time the Planck scale, so our Universe surrounds or forms a hologram around or in this what I call Quintessence.
So the connection is clear it is a full yes but not only for the supermassive Black Holes but for every quantum in our Universe.
Yes Jim, the what you call "recycling" is a process that is infinitely taking place in the Multiverse (Quintessence), once after the Planck length we enter there where there is no more causality no more determination, time is no more like an arrow, every moment existing in our 4-d Universe originates from there, here it will "Pass", there it is "eternal?". The what you call Big Bang is a timeless happening (moment). Perhaps the word recycling is not right and do we have to back to Hermes Trismegistus who wrote already in his Emerald Tablet : "The Formation of the Microcosm is in the accordance with the Macrocosm", on the lowest scale you meet the highest scale, apply this to the eternal time moments of the Quintessence et voilà...
If you dare to think a little further then you can solve a lot of questions by applying this view, but I know it is only one of the bunch and the real Truth is I thinnk not to find here.
I also read your essay, which is very readable, on page 5 you yourself also give the border of our Universe and the follow up is going to the Big Bang and the SMBH, the analog site of our Universe that gives the idea of continuum, in my opinion is caused by our consciousness, a consciousness that is able to handle infinities that in our 4-d world can not exist because of the limits we live in (see posts above).
So Jim thanks for your attention and Good Luck in the contest. (I will rate you too).
Wilhelmus.

Wilhelmus, this is a very thoughtful and philosophical essay. I like the idea that the ways we can join the stars to make constellations is similar to the arrow of time, perhaps you were thinking of Feynman diagrams too.

Thank you Philip,
Thinking of Feynman Diagrams and then drawing them are two different things, thinking of them is the best way of interpreting because our consciousness can deal infinities, and those infinities infact are the basis of those diagrams isn't it, so when you say thinking of you are quite right.
Furthermore it is also the that the ideas of Gerard 't Hooft (my fellow countryman) about holographics were an inspiration (he also created the Feynman-'t Hooft gauges).

You asked me to comment, but you know what I'm going to say!
The only ‘wall’ that exists is the limit of our ability (including non-humans) to experience entities. Nothing exists unless we can experience it (either actually or on a logically inferred hypothetical basis). The maximum we could potentially experience of any given entity is dependent on the capacity of the medium conveying the experiential information to differentiate reality. What lies ‘beyond’ experience is a matter of metaphysical conjecture and irrelevant for scientific endeavour. We do not create our reality, we experience it, albeit since the process of experience involves a number of interferences, these have to be reverse engineered in order to establish the original state that existed independently of us. Time is the experience of change (both in terms of sequence and rate). In sight experience, the rate of change is interferred with by relative speed (ie distance). The concept of time is a measuring tool, it is not an intrinsic dimension of our reality. Our reality is three dimensional.
I suspect all theories can be merged via a proces of correction, if everyone properly distinguishes between what is an intrinsic characteristic of our reality and how we intefere with it when experiencing it. That is, eliminate a number of metapysical assertions that are masquerading as objective statements under the guise of complex maths purporting to represent our reality.

Dear Wil,
You are absolutely right about consciousness. Science can only answer how things work, but cannot answer why do they exist. Only I or conscience knows why, because of love to create. We are experiencing the singularity of conscience and are able to express it.
Universal I or singularity or conscience is the
absolute truth and is the cosmological constant.
If universe is the meaning of understanding of one’s surroundings, then it is created with every birth and destroyed with every death. Universe is in a steady big bang state. Multiverse is just multiple interpretations made by bodies and minds of the conscience (soul or singularity). What one perceives of self (soul) is not the same as another, this is the multiverse with in the universe or singularity that we live in.
S=BM^2 (S-Soul, B-Body, M-Mind)Truth is simple, accepting it is not.

My dear Sri (do you mean Illustrus or just Mr ?)
Thanks for your post, you say "created with every birth and destroyed with every death", this is true when we look at the causal deterministic universe that we are "living" in, before birth there is no conscioussness and after death in the causal universe there is no more individual consciousness, but ... in the Total Simultaneity that I propose all the moments and places are simutanuesly presnet,it is the non causal "everything", you can compare it with "the center of everything where there is absolutely nothing and the center of nothing where there is absolutely everything" (thanks for your article). So in fact all the moments we survived are eternally present, but the word eternally has no meaning here.
Change the word Big Bang for "Origin", an origin is not a unique mement it is for every causal consciousness a special moment in Total Simultaneity.

Dear Wilhelmus,
You are absolutely right by saying that "for mankind Love and hate come from the same source". But a wise man knows it is better to be loving for sustaining the existence of his kind. As a realized human, I am just another father of 3 kids trying to share the knowledge of the absolute truth I experienced with in and importance of love for continued sustenance of human life.
Universal I or conscience or absolute or singularity or god is of everykind and has no begining and no end, its origin is beyond human comprehension so is its end, simply put it begins where it ends. As a human we can experience this singularity in our heart and know that it exists and its nature is Total Simultaneity as you have expressed. This truth is inherent in each one of us and has been expressed by several spiritual teachers like Lord Krishna, Moses, Jesus, Lord Buddha, Prophet Mohammed, Shirdi Sai, Guru Nanak and many more all along in different ways. I am just trying to convey this simple truth to all the scientific community, which is trying so hard to understand the reality of the universe and In the process creating complex theories of the inherent simple truth and getting lost in virtuality. It is time for our human kind to wake up from this virtuality (entangled intelligence) and experience the absolute self and live in love and peace.
Love,

Dear Wilhelmus,
Total Simultaneity is the Steady Big Bang State of the universe and conscience or singularity is the source. What we can see and feel with our senses is what comes out of TS or a big bang, but what we can know with in our selves is what is the source of the bang or TS.
There is no gravity, no entropy, no mass, no energy, no space-time in singularity or absolute conscience, yet it is the source of them all.

I am using the Planck length as a base of non causality.
The latest anaysis of Integral 5ESA gamma-ray observatory) places stringent new limits on the size of quantum "grains", it is replaced from 10^-35m to 10^-48m.
These observations of "tiny twisting effects" that are due to the quantum grains , and have become detectable signals , because of the fact they are being accumulated on the very large distance are indeed important for fundamental physics, and also for the view I propose in my essay.
The fundamental question here is "where is causality emerging", at the Planck length or below ?.
To answer this question is not so easy. Fact : before the Integral observations, it was the Planck length, now it could be the "Integral length" of 10^-48m. In fact for the view that I proposed it is not the exact point on a line that is fundamental, every length is a scale compared to another that makes for us our 4D Universe measurable and so causal to represents an idea in our consciousness.
The grains of space/time can and will be adjusted in their dimensinal scales when scientists are going further into the fundamental questions of reality, the idea of these grains being the limit of the causality and thus the border of Total Simultaneity will be the same.

Ok, this is new news to me: where is the source of this information? That The latest anaysis of Integral 5ESA gamma-ray observatory) places stringent new limits on the size of quantum "grains", it is replaced from 10^-35m to 10^-48m. "
C'mon W., even the LHC cannot probe to the plank length to determine whether particles are better described as points or strings. What possible detail could determine that it's 10^-48? By defininition it has to be a mathematical result. We should really wait until we can verify the nature of particles strings or points? at the plank length first, before conjecturing even further?
In that vein, I propose that the Quantum Grain is made up of 2.5 units, each with a length of 10^-123. The reason this can be stated if that it is comfortably beyond the capability of probing, even with an accellerator the size of the known galaxy. Let's stop counting our chickens before they are even (in principle( experimentally verifiable.

You can read the article in New Scientist:

-distant-light-hints_at-size-of-spacetime-grains.html
I fully agree with you that all our limits are relative and can be placed everywhere you want them to be, I took the Planck length because of the fact that behind this limit we cannot make any prediction, time is of no more value and so on, so for me it was the border of causality, after that was the Total Simultaneity, as a matter of fact it does not matter me at all where is this limit of causality, it is for me important that it is there.
And as it is for now we will in the near future not be able to explore the area before the Planck length.
The limit of causality (stargate) is everywhere around us, its exact dimension is not important, the idea is.

Garry, thanks for your reaction, as I wrote it is our consciousness that is the first "observer" and so causes the wave function to collapse into the particle function, so is the cause of the origin of our universe, the universe is as you mention understanding itself , it is us who cannot understand it 100%, because of the fact that we will never be able to know the whole TRUTH, we are able to observe only 5% of the matter, in our consciousness we understand infinities, that are not possible in the material 4D causal universe we live in, the other 95% can be other universes that will be undertood (also partially , when they are restricted like us) by other consciousness, thinking of them operating all together is a beautifull thought.

Since I was quite young, I have had moments of intuitive experience that I could not really define, except to describe them as an "awareness" that all moments (past present and future) are contained within THIS moment, NOW. These moments that can be described as feeling this way would come without prelude or effort on my part. I was not reflecting or meditating on these concepts.
They do not happen as often as they used to, but they do still occur, particularly if I wake in the middle of the night, in those first few moments that I am returning to an ordered sense of self and time, the normal "me" and "now".
In addition to these experiences I have had other moments of strong intuition that this physical plane of being is not always how its been for me. I am NOT talking about past lives or anything literal like that. These are purely, for lack of a better word, cognitive/spatial/spiritual experiences, and they are fleeting, and not part of any contemplative practice.
Anyway, while this is not per se on topic, I think it speaks to something about how we might be experiencing TS as you are describing it. These moments have been unquestionably moments of truth to me, truth beyond (even my own need for) analysis or any sort of skepticism. They stand apart from "ordinary" conscious experience but take place and move fluidly in and out of a fully awake non altered state (often during the day). I have not tried to re-create them. I hope they continue to happen as they have. They are memorable moments of being.

Congratulations Aynat, you are one of them whose consciousness has a special ability of being "aware" of TS, each human has, but everyone is different . To be honest with you this is why I participated here with FQXi, just to be sure that my point of view from the scientific side is not just a pile of bullshit. It is accepted and published (with slight alterations)also with "The Scientific God Journal", www.scigod.com , volume 2, issue 7. I am working now on the religious and esoteric side of the human awareness and my study of for example all the monotheistic religions show immense paralels with my scientific theory, also your experience is one of these proofs about the functionning of our consciousness. (Just one example : Christianity : God the Father : TS; The Holy Ghost : our consciousness that is an intermediaire between the human being and TS, the Son : our material existence, the bearer of the consciousness, and this goes for all relogions !!!) If you agree I could refer to your experiences.

I hope that FQXi is thinking about a new conquest, since one year of participating with the atricles and blogs the basic idea of my essay did not change but it has more causality as I thought for other areas of science and philosophy.
Once the game is played no one visits any more the threads of the essays (only if you are mentioned on the home page (thank you for that FQXi)), it remains a silent wittness of the thought experiments of the interested people of our planet.

Dear Sridattadev, I agree with you that the root of Ts is consciousness, and it will always be the consciousness of the "I". Consciousness has no masst nor length nor perceptable energy, to call it a singulairity is in line with mathematical CENTER. In our material causal universe with its limits (as for now Planck length and time) the singulairity does not exist, if it exists in TS is a different question I think. The center of our consciousness is an antenna that is receiving signals from TS, where the same center of that consciousness is existing as an eternal non causal probability. Though our consciousness is eternal ? The Big Bang did not occur I think, it is the entanglement of the of causal consciousness with non causal consciousness that is the origin of our "reality". This is what you can call the non causal eternal universal I.
I special asked for the question what is inbetween a cause and an event because this reasoning is typical of our 3+1 causal universe (created by our non causal consciousness), so inbetween can only be the Planck length and time , the same limit that when we approach it we enter in TS. So in fact my question is what is inbetween the slices of (causal) Block Universe, and this question I can answer with inbetween is TS.
thank you for the contact

Dear Wil,
You have understood my point absolutely.
Causal consciousness is in our brain and this describes "I am".
Non causal consciousness can be experienced in our heart and thats where "Universal i" resides. Yes, we can consider singularity as the absolute mathematical center of everything, hence it is everywhere, that is exactly what I am trying to convey to the cosomologists that all the black holes are connected at one central singularity and that the whole universe is a sphere of consciousness, described by S=BM^2, where S is the soul or non causal conscience (only one absolute soul shared by all), M is the mind or causal consciousness (cause and effect), B is the body that experiences it.
Please see
Conscience is the cosmological constant.Love,
Sridattadev.

Dear Wil,
Conscience is the "common" sense, and I mean it literally, as it is shared by all kinds of beings in the universe. We humans are lacking in this common sense and hence the chaos on this planet. It is time for our human kind to wake up and realize the common sense of conscience and act accordingly and live in love and peace.

Author Wilhelmus de Wilde de Wilde wrote on Mar. 27, 2012 @ 15:48 GMT
ON SIMULTANEITY :
there are three kind of simultaneities :
1. The simultaneity that is experienced by an observer.
This can be imagined as a sphere around the observer where he is the center, On this sphere of course arrive signals from different distances and times , if you would colour them this sphere would be like a soap bubble. All the centers and spheres tigether form the foam of our reality.
2. The absolute simultaneity that is occurring in a slice of the block universe. These events are independent of an observer and as so will never be observable as simultaneous by an observer. It is about the events that happen on a certain time moment . This moment (perhaps with the length of the Planck time) is not dependant of relativity (AR and SR).
3 TOTAL SIMULTANEITY: as discussed in the essay. This is the non causal simultaneity of all the block universe slices, also of the paralel block universes, it looks like chaos but in fact it is the ultimate probability.
Our consciousness is by entanglement able to contact its counterpart moments in TS, like an antenna, no time is neede to arrange aan enatnglement.

Thomas, Ts needs not to be reached, it is everywhere. Once you reached the Planck length and "go" further (in fact you cannot go further because you are at the very limit of causality) then you "are" in TS. ou can reach it at every point of space in our universe (including yourself), for "Time" the same , you reach TS at any moment after the Planck time. So : those space/time quanta are the limits of our causal material universe, however our consciousness is acting like an antenna (emitting and receiving) that is the cause of entanglement and so decoherence of of the what we call "causal" universe, our consciousness is the origin of our "awareness". The quanta in TS however are eternal, which means that they are be comparable with points on an endless (to the left and to the right) line, so points in infinity that have no before and no after because before is the same as after (endless), these points cannot be referenced and so eternally existant. This means that in fact our consciousness like we are aware of right now has a point of entanglement in TS that is eternal, which means that we as individuals are also eternal in TS, only here in the causal universe we have a beginning and an end, that is like a life line formed in TS. But at any moment we can chose other points (there is an enless choice) available in TS , that is our free will. By making a choice you are changing from one life line to another, no need that paralel worlds need to be created at that very moment because they all are already "present" as probabilities in TS.
I just read an article about our "primitive" consciousness that emerges from deep primitive brain structures (http://medicalexpress.com/news/2012-04-primitive-consciousn
ess-emrges-awaken-anesthesia.html. This is in alliance with what I think of consciousness, it has a long "life-line" in TS and in our causality.

The emerging of Realities out of Total Simultaneity explains also the wellknown discussion : "Why is there something rather then Nothing". The Total Simultaneity is an infinite entity (dimension ?). To explain the position of the quantum of consciousness in TS, we can imagine an infinite line and on this line a point, this point in fact doesnt divide the line in two because there are no coordinates possible to both sides of the line : so the point is everywhere on the line, the point in fact is also smeared out ad infinitum, so is the quantum of consciousness that is one of the probable points on the endless line of TS, an existing infinite probability, that is the cause of the collapse of this probability in our 3+1 causal universe, the fact that the eternal point is "available is enough to let collapse the wave probability in TS and olet originate a "reality" here. Our consciousness together are the cause (in our causal universe) of the decoherence of this reality to form a for our part of our consciousness a time-line.

Is GOD equivalent with CHAOS so with Total Simultaneity ?
Total Simultaneity is an idea for us (causal beings) not to understand, because it seems like Chaos, everything possible is "mixed" up and infinite.
The mixed up is another "order" as the one we understand.
Humanity is in its short existance always intrigued by the idea of GOD or Gods, also to explain our temporal existance.
God is described as INFINITE and Omnipresent with all the knowledge possible, isn't this the same as Total Simultaneity, where all probabilities are infinite "present" (also those of all probable paralel universes) ?
We can compare it with the Trinity of Christianity , where The Father is Total Simultaneity, Jesus Christ is the HUMAN in the causal universe, and Consciousness is the contact inbetween thos two, the HOLY GHOST.
In Kabala Total Simultaneity is EIN SOF, the top of the ten Sephirot.
In Islam ALLAH is unique and not understandable by humans, the greatness of Allah is infinite.
In Budhism the ultimate goal in fact is NOHTING, being ALL, Nirvana being free of suffereing, free of causality.

TOTAL SIMULTANEITE AND SPIRITUALITY
The basic theorem of my essay is : “A human being is the creator of his universe by entanglement” .
Entanglement needs a second part at another place, and an “observer” to arrange the specific entanglement.
The what we call second part is a “space/time probability” in Total Simultaneity (TS).
The “observer” is his consciousness in the causal universe plus the entanglement part in Total Simultaneity.
The universe created in this way will always be a universe that is fine-tuned for the specific human being.
In TS all probable space/time quanta from all possible and also for us “impossible” universes are present on a non causal base, there is no difference between past and future , there is no before or after, it is as a matter of fact the ETERNAL NOW for all Universes, parallel and multi. From the point of view of our causal universe it could also be understood as CHAOS.
In what we experience as the arrow of time and the resulting time-line in our causal deterministic universe, what we are calling history takes an important place, there seems to be an evolution towards the appearance of our actual consciousness.
In TS the moment that conscience is “present” in our own universe is an infinite existing quantum of space/time , so this consciousness is eternally existing in TS, so is the future consciousness, so are all the forms of consciousness probable and for us not probable.
To represent its eternal essence : imagine an infinite line (no beginning no end), an place appoint on this line. This point has no coordination towards the beginning nor the end of the line, so it can in fact be placed EVERYWHERE on the line. Everywhere on the line means infinite position. This becomes the Omni Point.
This Omni point has no before nor after like the Omni-Consciousness has no before nor after, it is the Eternal NOW .
So in the fifth dimension (Total Simultaneity) we are talking about there is an infinite amount of probabilities for the “existence” of 3+1 dimensional universes, one of them is ours in the causal universe and in fact is represented by an Omni Point.
I could describe our life-line as follows :
We close up to the true causal limits of our space/time when reaching the Planck length and time, these limits are not structural, I took them because of the fact that science of today (so perhaps not of tomorrow) take these limits as the end of existence of physical laws, everything here becomes immeasurable, so no longer a before or a after. The most important acceptance is that our universe is LIMITED in space and time, and that when passing these limits causality is no longer at steak. This counts for the lower limit, for the upper limit we could for our LOCAL situation take the c, the velocity of light.
So when we approach and then exceed this lower border which can be reached at every point of space and time in our universe, we enter TS. As we are material structures with material limits this can only be achieved mentally. (Just as string theory and loop Quantum Gravity apply their theories beyond the Planck length and time).
When we accept that our universe is everywhere touching TS, we could also make a mental jump and imagine the TS as a sphere with an infinite radius, on the surface of this sphere are the points of the life/time-lines (the contact points with our causal universe), these points on the surface represent the “now” moments of our experience, these now moments represent for us no longer existing moments of the past, I would like to call them “PRIMUS” but our consciousness , after reception by or senses becomes aware of them and even constructs mental futures. These future expectations form all together lines on the surface of TS (the imagined surface of the sphere with the infinite radius) . The surface of the TS sphere whose center is the ego contains only the for this specific consciousness his eternal Now moments. The life-lines so formed by our consciousness construct the understandable causal deterministic arrow of time as we are experiencing. As the component points are eternal, so is your life-line !
Each ego has its own centre of its own sphere together all possible consciousnesses are forming a foam of “reality” that is created by the decoherence of the total immense amount of consciousnesses and so forming our causal REALITY .
All the life-lines of all beings are formed on the surface of this Sphere, we can imagine that a life-line once created (every point has his before and after) become a whirling colourful line game like the wonderful images on a soap bell.
An infinity of life-lines can exist on this surface which is endless, sometimes they will cross or become parallel, or merge together (reincarnation).
The tendency to compare Total Simultaneity with GOD can be understood, we have now a possibility to further understand (we will never be able to full understanding) a term that kept us busy since the beginning of mankind .
Humanity has always described God or his Gods in relation to his own existence as human being, so impersonalising this idea as omniscient material form. God had all the wisdom and was the Creator of everything.
Total Simultaneity in itself has all the consciousness of all beings, of the past and the future, and of all the Universes, it is the ETERNAL NOW. Our consciousness is in contact with this TS and in fact the intermediary between the causal human being with all his restrictions and the TS. In our material universe with its time-line , infinities are the cause of paradoxes, our minds however can easily work with infinities and mathematics, one more indication that our material universe has specific limits and our consciousness like TS is unlimited, but only limited by the signals arriving as information from the outer world. (our experience).
The arrow of time as we experience it is sometimes associated with predestination , thinking that everything is already set, it seems as if there is no free will. But as we consider the infinity of now points of the future available in TS, the now point on the surface of the sphere is only a connection between an infinite amount of pasts but also with an infinite amount of futures, it is our consciousness that indicates the direction of our future , we are in the possession of FREE WILL. It is even thinkable that we could change from one past to another, if our consciousness (in the future ?) might be able to do the same as with the future.
Considering a human being in his causal space/time we see that every human being has different coordinates in relative space and also different time coordinates (Special Relativity, Einstein). So each human being is receiving different and so “Unique” signals from the outer world, even the signals of the television that we watch together are arriving at (however very small) time lapses at every spectator, and then it takes still 200 milliseconds from reception by our senses and the “awareness” of the reception before we become “aware” of the emitted signals, so every consciousness has its own “awareness” of our senses, each point on the sphere of TS is a UNIQUE point, as are the life-lines that result from the interaction between consciousness and TS.
When we consider for instance the human “sight”, our eye is observing in full colour and fully detailed only the surface of a dime held at an instance of 1 meter from the eye, it represents about 5% of the total view, the rest is completed by our mind by taking images of the past and so creating a “whole”. This is exactly what our consciousness is doing with the time moments on the surface of TS to create the “whole” image of the past.
So if we consider the TS as an equivalent of our GOD understanding than the human being is in constant contact with this entity through his consciousness, it is very comparable with the belief of Christianity , where there is the Divine Trinity : God the Father , here Total Simultaneity (Eternal Now), The Son : The human material being with its limits, and the Holy Spirit : our Consciousness (Contact with the Father (TS).
People pray to GOD, praying and also meditation, but I think that praying is the same as meditation, is a way to align our consciousness , fine tune our antenna , come closer to God (TS), aligning our consciousness means that we construct a better contact with the fifth dimension where all our possible futures are lying open, it is our free will that aligns the points of our life lines.
There are people who have “SIGHT”, they can be in contact with a deceased , their consciousness can cross the life-lines of these deceased in TS, dead in our 3+1 dimensional universe does not mean dead in TS, the now unique now moments of the deceased are eternally “existing” in TS, so if your consciousness has the ability or sensibility to touch these life-lines in TS then the information regarding these entities (also from other probable universes and futures) is possible and becomes understandable. As there is an infinite possibility of futures it is also possible to contact them, it is not sure that it will be the future as another individual through its free will will experience it, so future telling is a difficult thing.

For those who follow my thread :
Multiversity and Total Simultaneity.
The basic general thought of the existence of a Multiversity is that in the finite space of our Universe when completely filled with elementary particles, there is a finite number of ways that these particles can be arranged. The amount of arrangements would be 2 to the power of 10^118.
This could mean that when we are travelling along enough distance we could end up with encountering a similar arrangement of elementary particles meaning that we could meet a copy of ourselves. Max Tegmark has calculated that in this way we will find an identical copy of our universe (and so our twin) at a distance of about 10 to the power 10^118 meters from here (Max Tegmark, arxiv.org/abs/0905.128v1).
What happens here is that again we are coming up in fact with an infinite number of identical universes, and so an infinite number of identical twins of yourself, living the exact same life as yourself, because travelling in one direction is only one way to meet yourself in this way, but also be aware that in fact we can take an infinite number of directions.
Here we are again meeting infinities and paradoxes.
Now we are going back to our idea of the Total Simultaneity. Our consciousness is the line between TS and the causal universe in which your reality emerges. The entanglement of the two quanta of your consciousness (in TS and here) is the origin of the possibility of the special existence we are experiencing. The point in TS with which our consciousness is connected could also be connected to all our possible twins. In this way we could explain an infinite multiverse of “yourself”, because it s just the same consciousness that is the basis.
You could however wonder if it is necessary to accept so many twins. You could perceive all these probable twins together as ONE individual, and then we could accept that our journey to the so called twin universe is just travelling in circles. So the circumference of that circle would be 10 to the power of 10^118m…
Once we enter however this twin universe we also are changing this in a different one by changing the way of life of our twin when we meet him, his universe will from there on never be the same, and his consciousness and yours change (as a matter of fact he also was travelling around the circle of his universe (so you will meet at half the distance of the circumference), even if you both go back then your history has changed and the twin universe will no be a twin universe. This means that in TS the consciousness of your twin is going to follow another time/life line as yours, and multiversity is becoming a parallel universe.
This means that your twin and yourself are leaving the circumference of their universes and are entering another circumference (like a spiral). In TS they had the same starting and time/life lines and from the meeting point on they are following with their consciousness different lines on the surface of the sphere that we imagined as Total Simultaneity, which is logic because in TS EVERY possibility is a probability.
For our own consciousness the other time/life lines are no longer present as a reality, only our own reality is continuing as a line on the soap bubble with the infinite radius. The other consciousness follows now different lines. What we are experiencing as “material” universe can also be compared with the phase changes ,condensation of a cloud (future) and then crystallizing (past) and the centre of this condensation/crystallisation is the result of the consciousness moment which originated in entanglement of the two parts in TS and “here”.
For the multiversity created by eternal inflation (Susskind/Bousso : New Scientist, 4 june, p8), the same reasoning as above can be applied, only my opinion on inflation (inflation is occurring in a time before the Wall of Planck, so in fact is not occurring, Realities out of Total Simultaneity, FQXi : http://fqxi.org/community/forum/topic/913).

Hi Wilhelmus--got your message! So, after glimpsing your above Commentary I just want to say, "Let's talk about some objective Reality, shall we"? Instead of our own personal theories, which may or not be correct?
Anyway, what is your comment on the newest tentative results from the Large Hadron Collider Experiments? The 2000 or so physicists who work there have come up with a Theory of Unification based on Unitarity. Here is the most current model of most theoretical physicists on the explanation of the Observed experiments from the LHC, i.e. what the detectors have measured as we crash protons together at the highest energies yet!
They have reinvigorated the Theory of SuperGravity. Quantum Mechanics (particles) and General Relativity (spacetime topology) is melded into a grand Quantum Gravity theory by explaining the LHC results as gravitons interacting. Remember that gravitons are only speculative, and have never been observed experimentally. Until now, where the superscientists are explaining the data they see by modelling the correllated pairs of gluons with one graviton: the two are the same thing!
Guons and quarks hold the protons together by exchanging particles. We understand all this, and it's old Standard Model knowledge. But by this recent development of claiming that this same interaction (results of our detectors) can be explained by considering the particles (gluons) acting in pairs and behaving like a graviton is revolutionary!
Our civiliation has proved that Reality behaves the same as our computers. According to Boolean Logic, which is based on human thinking! We live in a simulated reality. And if we accept that gravitons exist as the particles of gravity in this reality, it has been programmed with something like human minds. That's a good sign. To be continued...
Now stop with your own theories, and tell us what you have to say about the LHC results. Less opinion, more explanation. That's what we pay our taxes for!

Thank you Tommy for your reply, I really aprreciate it.
Sorry for (untill now) not reacting to the results of the LHC, just because of the facts that : it is of topic, this thread is about the theory in my essay and its implimentations on our perception of reality. Further on I follow on VIXRA ( Phillip Gibbs) all the results from the LHC, and if necerecerry post answers. Of course there are multiple theories that try to explain our "reality", mine is just one of them and I am not at all convinced that it is the right one, each day I learn and receive more information, the results you see here. We for example have both a specific thought about "consciousnes" that you even put down in a "formula". I appreciated very much your approach only you easily on the first pages use the word "soul" and then you "simplify" it by letting HS=C (Huamn Soul = Constant) This is something that I understand very well, but also a simplification thet is in my point of view to easy to apply. I hope that you can give me an answer why you did this because as a matter of fact your essay and mine together could give new entrances to questions.
