From Stephen Hawking: “In The Grand Design we explain why, according to quantum theory, the cosmos does not have just a single existence, or history, but rather that every possible history of the universe exists simultaneously.”

“We question the conventional concept of reality, posing instead a “model-dependent” theory of reality. We discuss how the laws of our particular universe are extraordinarily finely tuned so as to allow for our existence, and show why quantum theory predicts the multiverse–the idea that ours is just one of many universes that appeared spontaneously out of nothing, each with different laws of nature.”

Hawking's "model-dependent" theory of reality and a multiverse in which many universes appear is fascinating. Life as interpretation and point of view is the basis of certain ancient spiritual teachings. Buddhism, Zen, and Hinduism work to get people to see the subjective nature of their sense of reality. Over against personal, subjective reality is the greater Mystery that is to be approached with reverence and a heart open to questioning everything in order to approach Truth.

The Origin of the Universe and the Masonic Pyramid describes the formal model of Disunification. The "Disunification of Infinity" is a model that seeks to explain the appearance of multiverses. The concept of a Multiverse, or of Multiverses, is found in Hinduism and quantum mechanics alike. What is for certain is this: Some event, or series of events, occurred in which our Universe began.

As traditional "SpiritMatter" religions continue to breakdown for various reasons, the field of Cosmology will increasingly become the new game. Consciousness had an origin. Whatever Consciousness is altogether, we as humans are self-aware and are expanding and unfolding far beyond the confines of SpiritMatter Religions. However, Atheism alone will not take us into the future anymore than will Religion. Humans are mythical. Our mythical potency is emerging in new forms. Steven Hawking has articulated a multiverse that allows for all probabilities. Therefore, the existence of Divinities, of Gods, Goddesses, and the entire pantheon must be allowed as a function of Multiverse cosmology. Likewise, Atheism is perfectly valid in Multiverse cosmology.

Disunification Cosmology simply states that Infinity disunified into all forms, processes, and beings. That is what a Multiverse would be after all: A self-unfolding part of Infinity that needs no Creator God.

World Consciousness is shifting away from traditional religious models. The possible futures of Human Consciousness was first tested in science fiction and then in shows such as Star Trek and movies like Star Wars and ET. What emerges as the leitmotif in many of these works is that there is a mysterious dimension to Consciousness that was Gnostic in nature. Star Wars described the "Dark Side" and "The Force" as the manifestations of Good and Evil within a technological World. It is interesting to see Stephen Hawking making an ultimate statement that is evocative of ancient Hindu cosmology. This has been the general trend in popular cosmologies written by physicists since the 1970's.

There is a definite shift in World Consciousness and Energy taking place as the old forms break down. I think that Infinity itself is communicating to us at a new level and will continue to expand its communication. Consciousness is always expanding and unfolding in its evolution. Humanity is on the cusp of a New World. New Realities are needed for the New World.
