It Is As If We Are Going Nowhere with the Universe
Prasenjit Debnath
Abstract: The origin of the Universe is a bit like very old and common place question- what actually came first-the chicken or the egg. Till date physicists shy away with such questions as it belongs to metaphysics or religion and it does not come under the science arena. Basically, the truth is that we want to perceive the Universe according to our own thought process or simply psychology of human being. From psychological point of view, we generally formulate a problem, try to analyze the problem in details with the thought process (theoretically) and with available scientific tools (experimentally) to reach to the solution or conclusion. We focus on some part of the Universe to get specific information to generalize the conclusion about the Universe. But why the Universe should work according to the psychological based processes. It could be that the Universe is never a problem for formulation, it could also be that the Universe never obeys conclusion based psychology. It is true that we are part of the Universe and not the Universe is the part of us. Because our brain works based on causality i. e. we can retain past to anticipate present and no interaction with future, the systems that are realizable by us are all causal systems. We cannot realize non-causal or anti-causal systems. It is because our biological system that we mimicry is not non-causal or anti-causal system. That is the reason that we cannot anticipate future although future is fairly simple and unique, definite as the counterpart past is. We can only mimicry our biological system to develop any artificial system where futurity is simply out of scope for us. That is where God plays an important role in our life for many reasons such like future is uncertain, the world is a cruel world. These made us weak in mind, believing that God knows and can modify in our favor what will come in future. Thus, we worship God to get favor of Him. The truth is that we can only build systems within our range of vision which is purely causal (Cause and effect relationship-cause is the reason to be the effect that way it is). The cause is the reason that the effect exists in the way it is and effect is also the reason that the cause that already happened, the way it was. They are mutually inter-dependent on each other.
Keywords: The origin of the Universe, metaphysics and science, Causality, simple and unique, definite future, non-causal or anti-causal systems
