There have been many speculations on the true nature of time, space, motion and our very existence in the universe. Einstein's Relativity Theory establishes a firm and proven equation between time, space, motion, mass and energy (MC square), etc. Einstein further stipulated that space and time are curved and that the very nature of infinity is circular, since only a circle has no beginning and no end, no matter what its size may be.
Postulated on these facts, it follows that if time and space are curved and therefore eventually circular, any given event must by necessity recur within the repeating infinity circle. Because of the nature of the constant time space circle, any event must then be
precisely the same as the prior occurrence. The nature of the time space circle could coincide with the Big Bang Theory, ergo the explosion and implosion of the universe from a singularity to the return to the very same singularity in a rhytmically expanding and contracting universe. It is also possible that the event circle can have a larger span of time than a single expansion and contraction of the universe, a suggested
approximate period of 20+20 billion years, allowing for a minimum period of 40 or more billion years, depending at what point expansion stops and contraction starts, and the speed of the process from singularity to singularity, There may be a number of expansion and contraction circles, possibly going into trillions of years till a given event re-occurs.
Each repeated event must reccur precisely as before.
For example, each day in each life of any organism
will occur again, exactly as before, the only difference being that the events will be 40+ billion or trillion years apart.
In summary, each event on the continuum of the event circle must proceed in time sequence exactly the same way as before.
The mass or M factor is only an illusion of our senses.
As the particle accelerator and the electron microscope
have proven, our examinations have turned the atom
into smaller and smaller particles, till, eventually, the
nuclei and and electrons , etc. show up as purely electro-magnetic waves or pure energy, possibly in the form of strings (String Theory).
In other words, all existence is a temporary state of energy and energy potential. In the long run, this energy moves through an infinite circle with all its points being a series of events conforming to the circular nature of time and space with an infinite repetition of all events in this circle. Our bodies and our 'souls' are an eternal repetition of events in this energy circle and the trillions of years of the interlude
between our death and birth and death are but a moment to us when due to our death and
unconsciousness time stands still for us. The repetitive event points are at rare times interrelated by vague memories from the past.
Some of these ideas are based on Einstein's Theory of
Relativity, on the curvature of time and space, also on Bishop Berkeley's theory that the world, as we see it,
does not really exist but is an illusion produced by our senses. This was later confirmed by Bertrand Russell,
When he stated: When I touch a table, I really touch nothing, just an electro-magnetic tension between energy fields. In addition, the hydrogen atom
as an individual energy field has an almost infinite life span, a quality which is shared by most other atoms,
except radioactive ones. It is interesting to note that the atoms or energy fields we are composed of are almost
eternal.
As the Bard said: There is more between heaven and earth than meets with our philosophy. The more we explore this universe, the stranger it turns out to be.
