TFNR - Universe
The Universe is the whole of what exists: the Source, Action, Information, Structures of Information, Material Forms (energy, matter, etc.) and immaterial (the intangible product of the cognitive activity of Living Forms - Cognitive aspects, more generally, of the Finalistic Agents).
It is the "present" in the sense of Special Relativity, where it is impossible to say in an absolute sense that two distinct events occur at the same time if those events are separated in space. No absolute time reference system. If events are not causally connected, precedence order is not preserved in all frames of reference. So, with the word Universe we intend the "present" section of Reality (in the sense and with the limitations above cited). Reality is everything that existed, exists and will exist. It is the product of an incessant Process of Formation. New Reality is incessantly constructed through the transition of potential in actual.
In eternal mutation / evolution, the Universe is incessantly re-created and evolves by the work of the Primary Source, from the most elementary level, the Elementary Field, up to the most complex (both in the cosmological, biological and cognitive domains).
Reality and its "present" section, the Universe, comprehend a physical domain (all the (dark and ordinary) matter, all the Information/Energy, the cosmos and the cosmic structures, the physical substrate of living beings, etc.) and a cognitive domain (Metareality, or Cognitive Reality, formed by all the cognitive activity, dynamics, structures, etc. produced by living being in their lives).
The origin and evolution of the Universe can be observed under many perspectives. The most important are:
- the Physical vision
- the Cosmological vision
- the Biological vision
- the Cognitive vision
The Physical Universe
Reality and its present section, the Universe, comprehend:
- a physical domain (the cosmos and the cosmic structures, all Information/Energy, all (dark and ordinary) matter, the physical substrate of living beings, etc.)
- a cognitive domain (the Metareality, or Cognitive Reality, formed by all the cognitive activity, dynamics, structures, etc. produced by living being in their lives). Everything.
The physical Universe, the ensemble of everything that exists physically, is the current temporal section of the Physical Reality, the "present". It is the physical part of the Universe, all that is not produced by the cognitive activity of the Finalistic Agents (Living Beings and Automata).
