Complexity: an essential requirement for intelligent life

Time evolution of the universe

According to general relativity, clocks and time can only be defined correctly in the presence of matter. In other words, interaction is an essential ingredient and generator of time. More precisely, the consequence of "static" time is that the universe is static and unchanging for outside observers. Inside, participants perceive the evolution of the cosmos through entanglement. Entanglement triggers interaction (decoherence), which evolves toward polar singularities, called white and black holes. The poles also appear in particular solutions of Einstein's field equations. The gravitational effects of black holes aided their discovery, but white holes remain difficult to observe due to negative-curving, bulging fields, which deflect incoming energy, even light. As their names reflect, they might be the source of illusionary light rays, which is a significant challenge to their discovery. 

Thanks to string theory, it is becoming widely accepted that the universe has more dimensions than experienced. In string theory, the holographic principle recognizes the horizon's importance as the information depository of a given volume of space (Susskind, 1994). The holographic principle means that information accumulation of the horizon via interaction turns particles into information-saturated black holes. The Euclidean spatial field, which determines the highest complexity, applies to our world and for life. Evolution is an ever-increasing complexity that works through the self-organization of matter into stars, planets, and living creatures such as us. The apex of evolution is the appearance of the still-evolving, brilliant mind, which cannot be a uniquely human quality. Some other planets in some other galaxies necessarily nurture life.

The universe's drive toward complexity is a humbling realization because the most complicated matter known to man is the human brain. Nevertheless, the idea that evolution, including societal progress, is channeled toward complexity and order suggests a shining future for the cosmos' intelligent occupants, including mankind.

The science of consciousness: the bridge between science and spirituality

Meditation in Sri Lanka by Sarvodaya Shramadana

It is an ancient desire to grasp and understand the universe. The hypothesis introduced by the book,'The Science of Consciousness,' incorporates the mind within cosmic evolution. It examines complexity increase via material interaction, culminating in the intelligent mind. It is a cosmic unity that resonates with ancient intuition but is based on recent scientific research.

The book concludes that three elementary particle classes form the foundation of the universe. These elementary particles are the matter fermions (such as the electron), the mind, and the cosmos. Their identical energy structures and analog operational principles form a fractal structure of vastly different energy levels and sizes. The smallest are material fermions; their immense frequencies provide massive energy levels. Fermions make up the luminous fireballs of stars and the organic matter of biological organisms. The second, lesser energy-producing level is the mind. In contrast to matter, which takes shape in space, the mental world (minds, societies, or ecosystems) exists in time. Finally, the largest structure is the universe, encompassing everything in space and time. Therefore, the universe organizes space and time with gentle wisdom.  

The hypothesis outlines an Aristotelian complexity: an organic, interconnected universe. It is also congruent with Hinduism, where Atman is the individual Self, and Brahman is the Ultimate Reality, the divine essence of the universe. Atman (the inner Self inside man) and the Brahman, the whole universe is one. In monotheistic faiths, the cosmos is honored as God, and Man was created in His image. 

It also recognizes the karmic consequences of actions. The negative attitude mind is overwhelmed by details. Unable to see clearly, it is biased, judgmental, and controlled by the environment (making it matter-like). Only the positive attitude mind has free will (making it God-like), the wisdom to accept objective reality. However, the positive attitude mind has no incentive or motivation to seek change. 

The hypothesis recognizes time as information and introduces the theory of gravity and emotions. Its new vision of evolution has implications for social sciences and economics.
