⨀ Philosophy of the Universe, Nonexistence, and Human Consciousness ⨀
The universe is a collection of matter and objects, which we refer to as "shayy" or Matter. When we speak of nonexistence or absence, we are essentially discussing within the same domain of matter and objects. This implies that the concept of existence is inherently tied to matter and objects. When matter did not exist, the notion of existence also held no meaning. That is to say, before the creation of matter, existence manifested itself—or was brought into being—as a phenomenon within nonexistence.
It is worth contemplating that existence itself is a phenomenon, confined within limited and specific physical boundaries. Man is capable of thinking and understanding only within this domain of existence, as this aligns with the limits of his intellect and consciousness. The relationship between man and existence is akin to that between a fish and the ocean. Man is a creature "swimming" in the ocean of existence, and the reach of his consciousness is restricted to this very domain.
When we state that “there was nothing” before the beginning of the universe, this can only be valid within the framework of existence. However, it is also conceivable that within nonexistence, there may have been a phenomenon transcending existence—beyond human intellect and consciousness. This phenomenon could be termed Meta-existence, which appears to us as “nothing,” although it might in reality be an unfamiliar or non-physical truth beyond human comprehension.
It is possible that before the creation of the universe, an environment existed within nonexistence that surpassed our understanding and awareness. For example, there may have been Alien Frequencies that are imperceptible and incomprehensible to us. Nevertheless, the influence of such nonexistence is present in human thought, as we do contemplate and reflect upon it.
Reason aligns with the notion that the universe was created by an infinite will or intelligence. If this premise is accepted, it logically follows that an infinite force brought the universe into the realm of existence and included man within it for a specific purpose. According to this purpose, man has been confined within the boundaries of time, matter, and life, and is undergoing a trial.
Man is a conscious being limited within the circle of time, matter, and life. His consciousness and actions revolve around daily affairs, emotions, and thoughts. These elements collectively produce an artificial environment or Physical Illusion, which man is compelled to perceive as reality. However, the higher reality lies beyond the scope of man’s limited consciousness and senses.
Time is an invisible yet dynamic phenomenon that envelops human life entirely. Its various dimensions are so complex that even the finest researchers are unable to fully comprehend their depths. All human activities and thoughts are confined within this flow of time. Consequently, the ever-shifting dimensions of time continuously place man in a cycle of busyness and perplexity.
Consciousness exists at varying levels among different creatures, for instance:
① Insects
② Birds and Animals
③ Marine Creatures
All these beings possess a certain level of awareness in relation to their environment and movements within it. However, man is incapable of fully understanding the scope or limitations of their consciousness, as he lacks a direct conscious connection with them. What is evident, however, is that human consciousness is superior and broader than animal consciousness.
It is also conceivable that a form of abstract or alien consciousness exists in the universe—something that surpasses human consciousness. Man has no means to measure the boundaries of consciousness, yet it is an established truth that human consciousness is not infinite.
Man regards matter as inanimate, but the motion, energy, and organization within the atom represent a profound truth. The question arises: Can an atom be conscious? For man, it is impossible to comprehend this, as his consciousness is limited to understanding only within certain confines.
This entire discussion underscores the limitations of the human being. Within the bounds of his intellect and consciousness, man can only partially comprehend the phenomena of the universe and existence. His ability to grasp alien phenomena and consciousness is extremely restricted.
◈ Relationship Between the Universe and Objects
The universe is a collection of matter and objects, which we refer to as "shayy" or Matter. When we speak of nonexistence or absence, we are essentially discussing within the same domain of matter and objects.

◈ Possibility of Nonexistence
When we state that “there was nothing” before the beginning of the universe, this can only be valid within the framework of existence. However, it is also conceivable that within nonexistence, there may have been a phenomenon transcending existence—beyond human intellect and consciousness. This phenomenon could be termed Meta-existence, which appears to us as “nothing,” although it might in reality be an unfamiliar or non-physical truth beyond human comprehension.
◈ Alien Phenomena and the Limitation of Consciousness
It is possible that before the creation of the universe, an environment existed within nonexistence that surpassed our understanding and awareness.

◈ Infinite Will and Creation
Reason aligns with the notion that the universe was created by an infinite will or intelligence. If this premise is accepted, it logically follows that an infinite force brought the universe into the realm of existence and included man within it for a specific purpose. According to this purpose, man has been confined within the boundaries of time, matter, and life, and is undergoing a trial.
◈ Existence, Time, and Human Consciousness
❖ The Domain of Existence and Time
Man is a conscious being limited within the circle of time, matter, and life. His consciousness and actions revolve around daily affairs, emotions, and thoughts. These elements collectively produce an artificial environment or Physical Illusion, which man is compelled to perceive as reality. However, the higher reality lies beyond the scope of man’s limited consciousness and senses.
❖ Time and Its Grip
Time is an invisible yet dynamic phenomenon that envelops human life entirely. Its various dimensions are so complex that even the finest researchers are unable to fully comprehend their depths. All human activities and thoughts are confined within this flow of time. Consequently, the ever-shifting dimensions of time continuously place man in a cycle of busyness and perplexity.
◈ Consciousness and the Animal-Human Distinction
❖ The Scale of Animal and Human Consciousness
Consciousness exists at varying levels among different creatures, for instance:
① Insects
② Birds and Animals
③ Marine Creatures
All these beings possess a certain level of awareness in relation to their environment and movements within it. However, man is incapable of fully understanding the scope or limitations of their consciousness, as he lacks a direct conscious connection with them. What is evident, however, is that human consciousness is superior and broader than animal consciousness.
❖ Possibility of Non-Visible Consciousness
It is also conceivable that a form of abstract or alien consciousness exists in the universe—something that surpasses human consciousness. Man has no means to measure the boundaries of consciousness, yet it is an established truth that human consciousness is not infinite.
◈ Consciousness, Atoms, and Perception of Reality
❖ The Reality of Atoms and the Question of Awareness
Man regards matter as inanimate, but the motion, energy, and organization within the atom represent a profound truth. The question arises: Can an atom be conscious? For man, it is impossible to comprehend this, as his consciousness is limited to understanding only within certain confines.
❖ Conclusion: The Limits of Human Capability
This entire discussion underscores the limitations of the human being. Within the bounds of his intellect and consciousness, man can only partially comprehend the phenomena of the universe and existence. His ability to grasp alien phenomena and consciousness is extremely restricted.
