Whereis theUniverse?
1 At the centre of the Universe is a point where energy is the most dense, where there is the most light.
Light escapes from there in all directions. It hits matter at different rates in all directions and thus slows
down and transmutes at varying rates. It radiates in a spherical shape but the end result is a sphere with
tons of holes and bumps. As an analogy, we could compare the shape of the Universe to the shape of the
earth's crust (with all the water removed). The earth is more or less round but its surface varies from the
deepest abyss in the ocean to the highest mountains of the himalayas. The Universe is about that shape. 2
The end of the Universe is where the last ray of light has travelled to and lost all energy and transmutes
into matter. Light is the highest source of energy in the Universe, once light has reached a point where it
does not have enough energy to go any further, nothing can go any further. If one would reach the end of
the Universe, one would not even see it. The darkness of space would hardly appear any different than the
darkness of "nothingness", at least to human senses. One would simply see nothing, no stars, no illusions,
no end - a little like in an Atom Egoyan movie.
3 But where is the centre of all this? Is there truly a centre to it? If it is truly a flash light, does it use
Duracell or Energizer batteries?
4 Of course, the centre of the Universe is not a flash light. At any one moment, the centre of the
Universe is where there is the most energy at that precise moment. Given that light travels at the speed of
light in all directions, this always varies at an extremely fast speed. There is always in the Universe as
much energy in all directions. Energy is the sum of all light (energy in a wave state) and matter (energy in
a solid, liquid or solid state). Energy does not transmute from light to matter at the same rate in all
directions, and this creates a gravitational imbalance.
5 Gravity, one of the weakest force in the Universe. Yet, it is this weakest force that makes the Universe
go round. The force of gravity is a physical force in the sense that it applies to matter only, not to
"everything". As such is is the only force that can become unbalanced around the centre. Light is the
strongest form of energy, but there is always as much light pulling on the centre of the Universe as there is
pushing. This leads to an aneristic balance, an equilibrium. 6 Gedankexperiment 1 : Imagine if you should
