The Arrow of Time

[Tamrin]

I came across this article on another forum (T3P): The Arrow of Time in Scientific American, by Sean M. Carroll. For the complete article, see:

Does Time Run Backward in Other Universes?

(Excerpt)

The basic laws of physics work equally well forward or backward in time, yet we perceive time to move in one direction only—toward the future. Why?

To account for it, we have to delve into the prehistory of the universe, to a time before the big bang. Our universe may be part of a much larger multiverse, which as a whole is time-symmetric. Time may run backward in other universes.

Elsewhere, Bro. Maximum wrote of "...a demonstration of the priciple of sub-atomic particle physics, whereby when two particles come into contact, they remain in contact, as in they influence one another regardless of distance."

According to the Big Bang theory, everything was once in contact with everything else! Hence the term 'Singularity.' There is the possibility that more recent contacts add new 'connections' but, ultimately everything was and therefore remains connected in some way, forming the Web of the Universe.

At this point we delve into Metaphysics rather than Physics as, at the point of Singularity, the laws of Physics (even space and time themselves) no longer apply. Curiously, Physicists also describe the result of Black Holes as being a 'Singularity.' While beyond the realm of Physics, one is drawn to ponder if our 'Big Bang,' even our universe, might be the ongoing product of a Black Hole in another universe and if each Black Hole in ours is producing it own universe. Potentially, each might be infinitely creative and not limited to input. Upon output, much matter and anti-matter would neutralise the other, with any imbalance being the ongoing stuff of a new creation.

Appropriately, this idea adds a new spin to the mystical notion of the universe being the subject of a breathing in and of a breathing out and adds new dimensions to the concept of successive Manvantras.

I've had that though regarding Black Holes. Where does the light and matter go? It would make sense that Black Holes would be a portal to another universe. Think of the Sepiroths on the Tree of Life, Where the Divine emenation fills each in turn, overflowing to fill the next.
