Is the Universe Created from Nothing? The Big Bang Reinterpreted

How can the universe be created from nothing? Rupert explains how when we examine our experience closely, this universe that we perceive of four dimensions of time and space, is actually contained within something which itself has no dimensions. That is, the reality of the universe has no dimensions – it does not exist in this world of time and space. Said in another way, everything we experience in time and space has no dimensions.

In fact, the universe does not emerge out of this dimensionless point, it somehow takes place within it. So could it be that what we experience in time and space does not take up any space in consciousness?

In this way, the big bang would not be an event that took place 13.8 billion years ago, because time and space are not part of the fabric of reality – they are not inherent in reality. Thus, our current model of The Big Bang Theory is just the human mind’s feeble attempt at articulating what really takes place – the creation process – in a way that is consistent with its own limitations. It is the finite mind trying to represent truth on its own terms because there is nothing else it can do.

But could we try to find a more accurate model of reality?

In the Tantric tradition of Kashmir Shaivism, they say that the universe is an expansion of ‘I’. 'I' being consciousness – the dimensionless presence. And that the universe of time and space expands within this dimensionless presence.

What might the creation of the universe model be if we took out time and space? Could we have an alternative model of the creation of the universe that doesn’t presuppose the existence of time and space being fundamental in reality? If we consider consciousness as the fundamental nature of reality, how can we re-interpret The Big Bang Theory?
